Manuel Antonio Kayaking

The pace of any of Iguana Tours’ kayaking adventures is determined by your group’s abilities and interests, and the abundance of wildlife you all want to stop and observe (or learn about) – all in its natural and breathtaking habitat.  All our kayaking tours come with round-trip transportation, highly educated bilingual guides and naturalists, all equipment, snacks, a hearty Tico style meal, and local refreshments.

Since we are the Manuel Antonio specialist, come experience one of Costa Rica’s most striking coastlines and National Park – by open-seat ocean kayak.  Whether you are an individual, group, or an adventurous family, this challenging yet gratifying ocean kayaking adventure is for you.  The adventure begins near the developing Pez Vela (Sail Fish) Marina in Quepos and winds along the Manuel Antonio coastline.  Indulge yourselves at a rare jewel of a beach – a hidden Manuel Antonio treasure at Biezans Bay – for a refreshing swim and delicious local snacks.  And feel free to have your bilingual naturalist guide direct you to the best snorkeling spots as you experience three small but growing, active, and astounding coral reef systems nestled very close to the shore of Biezans Bay.  Or just relax and enjoy the tranquility of a private white sand beach.

Whether in the day or the night, come, learn and experience a delicate treasure Costa Ricans are so desperately trying (and successfully) working to preserve – our tropical rain forest.  Overall, any of our kayaking adventures are memorable and fun for just about everyone, yet they all are a terrific way to experience the exotic Costa Rican ecosystem in a way that only Manuel Antonio can be shown – by Iguana Tours.

Did you know that almost 70% of the mangrove ecosystem and the tropical rain forest jungle is nocturnal?  Since that is the case, our own “Jorge of the Jungle”, the Iguana Tours partner that personally operates and even created our Mangrove Tours, has developed a completely unique, safe, yet unforgettable experience – a Kayak Adventure at Damas Island Estuary and the Mangroves AT NIGHT.  Depending on the coastal tides slowly blending into the mangrove ecosystem at Damas Estuary, your night adventure starts after your arrival at our Damas Island Rancho located in our protected mangrove habitat.
