Join a kayak and snorkel tour through the mangroves around Lac Cai beach. With glass-bottom kayaks, you can experience the beauty of this incredible area in a unique way!

Start at Lac Cai beach and follow your guide as you paddle to the mangrove. Admire the breathtaking sceneries around you and look down through the glass bottom of your kayak. Paddle through the mangrove tunnels and spot various types of birds. While snorkeling one of the mangrove tunnels, you will be amazed by the different varieties of fish, coral and sponges.

The mangroves are a very important part of Bonaire and are internationally protected by the RAMSAR Treaty. It is considered as a nursery for many species of wildlife. Back on Lac Cai beach, you can enjoy a bit of fruit punch with a snack and your guide will show you a place to spot turtles. You can snorkel here on your own, if you wish.

The Guide was fantastic, he talked about mangroves with passion and told lots of interesting facts. Mangroves is very unique experience and really worth exploring.

My wife and I enjoyed the kayaking through the mangroves and learning about them. The guide was super friendly and we enjoyed everything. Lac Cai in the Lac Bay area of Bonaire is so pretty and we got to see some flamingos on the drive.

Kayakken en snorkelen tussen de Mangroves bosjes is een aktiviteit de de meeste mensen niet regelmatig doen.. Het is een heel bijzondere ervaring, die je eigenlijk niet mag missen. Je wordt opgehaald door je gids zelf, die je dwars door het binnenland en via binnendoor weggetjes naar de oostkant brengt. Dan ga je met je kayak het mangrovegebied in, met heel veel informatie van de gids over de mangrovebomen, de dieren die er wonen en de sponzen en oesters die op de wortels leven.

Niets kan in in nadelig zegen

Mooie tour met goede uitleg van onze enthousiaste en vriendelijke gids.

Het gezin vond de tour erg leuk, interessant en leuke activiteit. Wat pech met het snorkelen aangezien de stroming verkeerd om stond, maar daar kan je niks aan doen. Stond wel bij de uitleg dat er wellicht nog gesnorkeld kon worden waar schildpadden waren maar dat hebben we niet gedaan.
