What to expect
You'll meet your guide at 9am and spend the morning alternating between water and land. Expect three solid hours in the kayak—the pace is steady but manageable for intermediate paddlers. The water is calm and sheltered. Between paddles, you'll walk dunes (bring water shoes) and learn which native plants are edible and useful. The guide will point out birdlife and explain why this wetland matters. Lunch breaks built in. You'll finish around 3pm, tired but satisfied.
