Bonaire Mangrove Kayaking Tour

About this Tour

What would the coral reefs on Bonaire look like without this mangrove system? Very empty! Because the mangroves are the nursery room for many of the fish normally seen on the reef. This is where you may see juvenile barracudas, parrotfish, tarpons and trunkfish (just to name a few).

Experience the lush green and serene tranquility of this very special ecosystem from a kayak and watch with delight as nature is moving by. In the night this is also an experience you’ll never forget. At night this is where you truly can experience and enjoy the sound of silence.

There are several other kayak operators , but none of them will offer offer you small groups and a quiet tour like I do , so you can really enjoy nature to the maximum.

Because of its important function the mangroves on Bonaire are also a Ramsar Site. This will also give it an international protected status under the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands.
