Explore the rainforest canals at your own rhythm.

This guided kayak wildlife safari allows you to paddle silently through the jungle waterways of Tortuguero National Park — reaching places where motorboats cannot go.

No engines.
No noise.
Just you, your kayak, and the sounds of the rainforest.

It is one of the most immersive and authentic ways to experience Tortuguero’s wildlife.

🌿 A True Rainforest Adventure

Kayaking through the canals offers a deeper connection with nature and wildlife.

As you move quietly through the waterways, you may observe:

🐒 Howler and capuchin monkeys
🦥 Sloths resting in the canopy
🦜 Exotic birds such as toucans, herons, and kingfishers
🐊 Spectacled caimans along the riverbanks
🌿 Tropical plants, orchids, and aquatic vegetation

The slow pace of kayaking creates excellent opportunities for wildlife observation and photography.
