About this activity

Meet your guide, Omari, who is passionate about preserving the mangroves around this area that he calls home. He has incredible knowledge about the various bird species in the area. Sail through the waters, meet the villagers, and watch the sun set over the mangrove creeks. This experience is the ultimate way to relax as the sun goes down.

Impact Created:

+ Supporting a Hidden Gem: this spot is off the beaten path yet a number of villages surround it and rely on the area for income.

+ Community: this trips funds will trickle down into the community aiding healthcare, employment and education.
