Quepos Verde Aventura
A three-hour guided kayak trip through the Isla Damas mangrove channels. Calm water, birds on every branch, suited to families.
A paddle through the Isla Damas mangroves on calm water. As you work through the narrow channels, look for birds perched on overhanging branches and animals moving in the water under the kayak.
