Original and friendly excursion! Thanks to the concept of the floating bar with wood, you will have the opportunity to drink and eat in the water in the middle of the lagoon, an experience you are not about to forget! Embark aboard a large, spacious and comfortable speed boat with bow and stern bimini for protection from the sun.
On the program: discovery of the nature reserve of Grand Cul De Sac Marin by boat: Explore the coral reef, the wreck, the islets la Biche, the Caret islet, the mangrove and the bird island. This tour has been designed to make it unique and away from the tourist crowds. The little bit also on board is of course the giant eight-seater paddle made available for group fun, and which also turns into a dance floor for a zouk session after lunch! Good humor and crazy laughs guaranteed! Partner and actor of the Guadeloupe National Park.
