Overview

The mangrove forest that surrounds part of Boipeba is one of the most productive ecosystems on the Bahian coast — a natural nursery for fish, crabs and birds, and a labyrinth of roots that can only be crossed by kayak or SUP, paddling between narrow channels that the high or low tide changes completely.

The experience

This tour is conducted as a guided immersion, not just a paddle tour: the guide explains the role of the mangroves in the region's food chain, points out crabs hidden among the roots, birds that perch on the lowest branches. The route changes depending on the tide — in some points, the channels are only navigable during a certain window of the day, which makes each trip a little different from the previous one.

Destaques

  • Paddling between narrow mangrove channels, in a kayak or SUP
  • Guide with explanation about the local ecosystem
  • Watch crabs, birds and marine life among the roots
  • Variable route depending on the tide of the day

There is also a canoe version of this trip — same landscape, different vessel.
