Highlights
  • SCUBA CANCUN - We are a team of passionate people who care about nature and alternative tourism, we developed Go Kayak Cancun to let people learn about and explore an authentic version of Cancun and the diverse ecosystem we are lucky to have in the area in a safe and professional way.

Live a unique experience among the mangroves of Laguna Nichupté.

We will start with an introductory talk on safety and basic concepts of the activity.

Then we enter the mangrove forest where we can admire the great variety of birds that inhabit or visit the place in its channels and lagoons. If we are lucky, we might see some exotic animals that live in the area.

The activity is perfect for people who want to live the experience of being surrounded by nature on the water, whether they are beginners or advanced kayakers.

Self-challenge: most animals may see, hear or smell you long before you are aware of their presence. Whether you are searching for wildlife or observing it, you will be more successful if you rely on more than just your eyes. Listen for cracking twigs or branches, animal calls, or the flutter of birds’ wings to help you locate animals.

A magical voyage into this rare mangrove ecosystem. - Absolutely wonderful. I took the morning tour. Slowly cruising through the a narrow mangrove passage is quite wonderful. I saw a resting crocodile, there are starfish in one areas, marine sponges in another. We saw birds, Little blue heron, Great blue heron, Tiger heron, Egret, an Anhinga, Andrés, our excellent guide and bird identifier, showed us examples of red black and white mangrove. The whole trip lasted two hours or more. Paddling back to base against the wind was difficult but doable. When we were on the main channel some larger boats went by throwing up waves, but you just turn to face into them and they are not a problem. But in general, it was a spectacular, high value, close to big nature experience with lots to see. I highly recommend it to any nature lover.

Book this trip! - This trip was a highlight of our honeymoon - waking up early was absolutely worth it. Andrés was incredibly knowledgeable & so passionate about the environment and wildlife that it was inspiring to be around. Being out on the open water was so peaceful and we were able to experience a ton of marine life (like a giant stingray right under our boat and listening to a tiger heron). This is the real thing, focused on what Cancún really has to offer, and was not touristy or packed with people. We had such a fun time learning from Andrés, and highly recommend this trip!!

definitely book for your next trip to mexico!! - such an amazing and unique experience!! my partner and i have 0 regrets — the nature is so beautiful and one-of-a-kind, the paddling is fun and engaging (navigating the tandem kayak feels kind of like playing a super mario mini game), and andres is extremely knowledgeable and kind. we saw a myriad of fish, birds, stingrays, starfish, and even got to touch the mangroves so we could say we touched something that’ll still be here when we aren’t haha

Fabulous two hour exploration of the mangroves of Laguna de Nichupte - Brilliant morning with Andres. Good safety brief to start and then an amazing, leisurely paddle across the lagoon and through the mangroves watching the Tiger Heron, Blue Heron, Frigates, and an Osprey. Amazing sight of a turtle right alongside us, plus a stingray, barracuda and lots of starfish. A great way to spend a couple of hours and get to see the nature of Laguna de Nichupte with a great guide.

Amazing! - It was an amazing trip, we have been advised how to use Kayak and received all necessary information. The nature was breathtaking and the guide always took care of us, informed us all the way about the surrunding, animals and the nature systems which was very interesting. This is an highly recommended Tour if you want to do something active, something relaxing, in connection with the nature and get knowledge about beautiful Mexico!

Wonderful experience - This was a fun experience. I enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere of Cancun in the early morning. Andres was a great guide. He was very friendly and funny. He made the tour very fun and he was knowledgeable about the lagoon environment. I would highly recommend this tour, whether you are new to kayaking or have experience.

A trip to remember! - Had the best experience with Andres! He is a really knowledgeable guide and all round nice guy. From using the tide and winds to our advantage, to his encyclopedic knowledge of the local wild life and ecology. I cannot recommended him highly enough. The trip was so good we have already booked a second adventure with him.
