Sunset Kayak Tour in Cancun

About this experience

Enjoy a guided kayak tour through Nichupté Lagoon during one of the most beautiful times of the day. Paddle through peaceful mangrove channels and discover a different side of Cancun, away from the busiest tourist areas.

Accompanied by a local guide, you'll explore Nichupté Lagoon, one of Cancun's most important protected natural areas and home to a wide variety of birds and wildlife. Every tour is unique, and wildlife sightings depend on the natural conditions of the day.

Our goal is to provide an authentic, safe, and low-impact experience that allows you to connect with nature. We also actively participate in monitoring, cleanup, and conservation efforts in Nichupté Lagoon as part of our commitment to protecting this unique ecosystem.

No previous kayaking experience is required. Before the tour begins, you'll receive a brief safety and paddling introduction. We recommend arriving at least 20 minutes before your scheduled departure.
