    blissful experience, well-run operation
    This is one of my favorite experiences ever. Apparently conditions can vary but when we went (mid-October) it was exceptional. Have to wonder whether these conditions will persist indefinitely given climate change, but for now, this is blissful. There are several companies, encountered others—EcoAction seemed very tightly organized in in comparison, and did a good though quick orientation, so our group was able to manage better than some other groups seemed to. It’s 1.2 miles each way—kayaking neophytes should be prepared that it’s more than zero work, though the way back, with the current, is almost like a lazy river when not encountering other groups going the other way. Despite other groups and tree snags, it is incredibly peaceful and lovely. Things I’m glad we knew ahead: wear reef shoes or shoes that can be immersed, and shorts or swim gear—you wade up to your thighs to the kayak and back. Put phone and wallet in waterproof pouch or leave behind. Things I wish we’d known ahead: Person who reserved must bring ID. There are pointed tree snags along the way and it’s easy to run into them since it’s dark—have awareness and go slow if you’re not super skilled so you can adjust. If you book the early tour (6:45), it may be hard to find a place to eat after—plan to grab food before or nearby right after. Altogether—fantastic experience, could have stayed out there forever!

    Wonderful
    Breathtaking to kayak between the mangroves on both sides . It’s a must tour to take in Puerto Rico. The company provided great service and were very helpful for inexperienced kayakers. Pablo , Gabriel and Angel are just amazing and they entertained us throughout the tour . Highly recommended ?
