About the Activity

What to Expect

Join us for a guided sea kayak tour in the mangrove Les Trois-Îlets. Start your adventure by gliding through the tranquil waters of Génipa Bay, a stunning location where the mangrove swamps account for nearly 6% of Martinique's forests. Here, you will witness the rich biodiversity, including a variety of animal and plant species that are still little known. As you paddle along, your experienced guides will share fascinating insights about the area, soon to be classified as a Regional Nature Reserve.

Choose between a 5km or a 9km tour to suit your preferences. If you opt for the longer 9km route, we will take you there by boat, providing a comfortable journey to the starting point. Our kayaks are well-equipped and stable, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all participants. With our guides accompanying you every step of the way, you can focus on exploring the hidden corners of the mangrove swamps, where the saltwater river meanders through the lush landscape.

As you navigate the waterways, you will have the chance to observe the unique ecosystem that thrives here. From the vibrant birdlife to the intricate root systems of the mangroves, every moment is a discovery. The tour will take you past iconic spots like Génipa Bay Saltwater River and the serene surroundings of Les Trois-Îlets. Whether you are an avid nature lover or simply seeking a peaceful escape, this kayak tour offers an unforgettable glimpse into the heart of Martinique's natural beauty.
