great experience and recommend others to try - the driver came to pick me up before the agreed time, drove me to the place for canoeing with a nice, pleasant ride. I was picked up by Peter, a wonderful young man and guide. Since I came for the first time, I got all the equipment and everything was explained to me. Peter is he was with me in the canoe the whole time teaching me about the mangroves and I had a great time.

Sunrise in the Mangroves - Amazing experience of watching the mangroves, the sound of the birds and sunrise while kayaking . A very relaxing and beautiful morning although it meant an early wake up call at 4 am, to be ready for my 5:15 pick up . My trip of 35 mins was smooth and the team where very helpful. I discovered I was the only one there and enjoyed the experience with my guide in the water. Even saw some crabs working their wonders . Got my explanation of the purple island part ( will not spoil it for all ) so enjoy it . Highly recomended

A gem that needs better management - A great experience that would not have happened without the courtesy and hard work of our host Peter. He made us feel welcomed and didn't spare any efforts in the trip despite being the only person manning the camp and the group tours.
However, the camp needs to be renovated with more people to maintain it, the off road route is not suitable for all cars which is not clarified in the trip details. Also, we booked a trip at 6:00 am but the night before the trip I sent a message to confirm the site and I got a response that 6:00 am ia low tide you better come at 7:30. How would I know that change if I didn't send the message, communication with the trip agent needs to be proactive and timely.
