Great kayak activity - We rented four kayaks for a mangrove trip. It was easy ( no waves) and fun! Francis the owner explained the itinerary which was interesting. It’s best to book in the morning rather than than in the afternoon since there was absolutely no parking spots available ( we’re traveling in February) It’s a great activity well worth the cost!

Kayaking for everyone - Quiet assured, 2h without noises except those of this nature. Discover the nature that has taken its place: hens of water, pelicans, and be on the lookout for this nature rich in surprises. Super well received, friendly, easy, no stress.

Adventure in the mangrove - Very warm welcome. We spent 2 wonderful hours discovering Mitan Pond in all its nooks and crannies, from reeds to the bottom of the mangrove forest. A must-see in the region!

Great ride, very good value for money - Very good activity, we are well guided at the start on places and things to see and we have an extra laminated map to head! The value for money is great, the manager very nice, and we were alone during the walk which is a plus!

Exceptional - The owner Francis warmly welcomed us in German. He explained the entire route to us and told us specifically how the lake and the mangroves were formed there. A very pleasant and relaxed paddle tour with excursion into the palm forest.👏👏

Kayaking and paddle in Grande Anse, a magical moment! - Beautiful kayak and paddle ride! The beach of Grande Anse de Deshaies is the most beautiful we have done in Guadeloupe. The nautical center offers several activities, the owner is really nice and gives good advice for hiking on the water. A few small stops at small beaches to see the fish under transparent water. A perfect family moment. Thank you very much, we highly recommend going 😉
