What did we do today?
- early morning 3-hour paddle through the canals at Tortuguero National Park
- late afternoon 3-hour paddle through the canals at Tortuguero National Park
Accommodation: Cabinas Tortuguero
Meals: we made our own breakfast and ate dinner at the Budda Cafe
We rented double sit-on kayaks from Tortuguero Adventures for the whole day and did two separate self-guided paddles through the park canals. Paddling through the canals with only the sounds of birds, howler monkeys, the distant ocean and the wind through the trees was one of the highlights of our trip.
The kayaks were quite stable and comfortable with self-adjusting seats. Once you enter the canals off the main river the water is absolutely calm and paddling is almost effortless.
If you've been on a guided trip through the canals you will know your way around and don't need to worry too much about getting lost, plus there are usually other people somewhere in sight.
