Kayak en Rio Safari Peñas Blancas Recommendations:
Children: Minimum age is 5 years old. Children pay the same as an adult and must ride in their parents kayak. If you have younger children, we recommend the regular Peñas Blancas Safari Float by boat.
Restrictions: This tour is mildly strenuous. You must be in good physical condition to paddle your own kayak and be able to climb in and out of the kayak without assistance.
Insider Tip: There is no better way to get up close with nature than by silently paddling your own kayak along the river surrounded by wildlife. Motor free means that most animals will watch you pass curiously rather than scurry off. The best time is the early morning most of the year, when the birds are out and the lizards are sunning themselves. But if you have the fortune to visit Costa Rica in the dry season, the afternoon tour is wonderful as the sun is setting and twilight is when the nocturnal creature begin to awake.
