FAQS
DO WE HAVE TO CARRY OR CART THE BOATS? WHAT KING OF FITNESS LEVEL DO I NEED
We do all the heavy lifting for you. We are not racing, nor are we fighting the high seas, however, during our ocean ventures, a moderate level of fitness and coordination is required. Our mangrove paddle is flat water and you can paddle at your own pace and speed. All of our kayaks are sit-on kayaks, very sturdy and some of the most comfortable kayaks you will find.
CAN I JUST WALK UP AND RENT A BOAT?
There are some days where we are renting kayaks out on the Baru River but we encourage you to book online to ensure one of our staff are there and so we can have our gear ready for you.
WHAT IF THE WEATHER ISN'T GREAT
Costa Rica weather can be very unpredictable, we do our best to keep our tours on our schedule but there may be times where inclement weather may cause water conditions to be unsafe and we may be forced to shut down. Dress for the weather and plan for anything, you just never know in the land of micro-climates when the rain will hit.
ARE THERE ANY AGE RESTRICTIONS FOR RENTALS OR EVENTS? IS IT SAFE??
Our mangrove paddle is suitable for all ages and all paddling skill levels. The water is calm and there is a little current. For our sunset paddle, we will be navigating through the surf into calmer waters but the Pacific does have some life. IF you are prone to being seasick, have very poor upper body strength, please either book a double kayak with a strong paddler or you can request via email or whatsapp that our guide take you with him. We do restrict single kayaks and paddle boards to 18 years and above but if there is a moderately strong adult in the kayak, we are happy to have you in a double kayak. Our overnight events are designated for those aged 18 and above.
HOW DOES PAYMENT WORK?
Payment is made up front through the website via Paypal, Visa or Mastercard or you can also pay via sinpe mobil. Your tour isn't confirmed until we have received payment.
