DESCRIPTION
Kayaking, swimming, snorkeling, uninhabited island nature hike, boat ride, beach combing, and a photographer's delight. From the kayak land base at Seatons' Village, you will head out by motorboat through Mercer's Creek to a 144ft raft where kayaks are moored in a quiet lagoon.
Itinerary
Fast motorboats transfer you from the kayak land base to a remote lagoon where, after instruction, guides will lead a 45 minute route thru mangroves and tiny islands. Look for shy turtles, skimming ballahoo and starfish in the inlets. Reboarding your boat, an exhilarating 20 minute ride in the North Sound Marine Park will bring you to an uninhabited island, the habitat of small wildlife and tropical birds. Take an 8 minute guided nature walk to the top and be rewarded with stunning vistas. Bring your camera!
After the short descent to the beach, relax under a coconut tree, explore the island or soak in the crystal shallows off the beach. Keen snorkelers can reboard the boat and head to an offshore reef; guides will assist with gear and show the best spot to seek amazing marine life. Heading back to the kayak base by boat, discover more islands and lovely coastline along the way; look out for endangered ducks near Guiana Island as you skim through 'The Narrows'.
Returning to the owner's residence, you will be welcomed with chilled towels, delicious refreshments and warm hospitality. There will be time to relax in the mature garden to enjoy the tropical birds and exotic flora.
