About this experience
Our award winning kayak program has been exploring these waters for more than 20 years. They are ideal for the family, excellent for education and an amazing way to see significant Turks & Caicos marine wildlife; juvenile turtles, rays, juvenile sharks and birds.
The mangrove habitats make up a third of these islands. We love to teach our guests about these unique ecosystems and the important role they play while exploring and paddling through their channels. These tours are an absolute must for everyone visiting these islands.
