We had a lovely afternoon kayaking. As soon as we hit the water we saw a dolphin straight away. Paddling through the mangroves was very beautiful and quite an adventure as we were at low tide. Our guide Abbey was so great, very relaxed and laid back and shared lots of knowledge about the mangroves. The 1.5 hours went by too quick.
