Overview

If it's your first time, don't worry, we'll teach you in a simple and fun way, it's easier than it seems and we guarantee that you'll love it. And if you already have experience, we'll surely be able to teach you some tricks on the board.

All this while we explore the mangrove channels and tunnels that are home to different species of fish and birds, including flamingos that we'll see if we're lucky.

Discover why biologists call the mangrove "the nursery" and learn other curious facts about this ecosystem that's so important for humanity.

After a theoretical class, we'll start the adventure sitting on the board so that it's easy to learn how to control it. Once you've mastered this part, we'll help you stand up.

Although the challenge is to paddle standing up, you can also sit, kneel, lie down and even stand on your head or do yoga on the board... the idea is to have fun!

GUYS, SEE YOU SOON IN THE WATER!

What To Expect

This adventure is designed so that everyone from the youngest to the oldest members of the family can participate. No previous experience or knowledge of swimming is necessary. The activity takes place in calm, shallow, wave-free waters, which makes it safe and easy to do.

Live an experience that combines relaxation, fun, games, learning, connection with nature and with yourself in one of the most beautiful and important places in Yucatan.

ATTENTION: The schedule depends on weather conditions, since it is an outdoor activity, we must maintain communication prior to the tour to agree on the schedule, once the schedule is agreed it must be respected so as not to lose the reservation.

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
