Kayaking is an experience of great connection with nature and you can enjoy it along the Banderas Bay coast, around the Marietas Islands, or in the El Salado Estuary.

There are many tours that offer this activity combined with other adventures such as scuba diving, snorkeling, turtle and dolphin watching, and bird watching.

Kayaks can be rented at most large hotels. You can go kayaking in the morning, afternoon, evening, or even at night but the best time is very early in the morning because calm and warm morning can quickly become a rough and windy afternoon paddle.

The southern part of Banderas Bay offers calm waters and in this area, a good option is Boca de Tomatlán a small paradise.

Los Veranos Park offers a fun tour on the crystal clear waters of the Orquídeas River, with the opportunity to combine it with other amenities found along the trip.
