About Kayak Safari at Cape Vidal
For visitors to the Elephant Coast that want to experience this area to the fullest, this guided kayak safari takes place in Cape Vidal, where the tidal waters are home to a large variety of fauna and flora.
Paddle around the mangrove-covered islands and spot basking crocodiles and fishing water-birds. Hear the cry of the fish eagle and view hippos resting in the waters or browsing on the grassy sandbanks.
A great trip for people keen to see wetland bird-life or just to enjoy being in nature; this trip is a fairly non-strenuous flat-water paddle suitable for both experienced and novice paddlers. We pick you up at your St Lucia accommmodation or our offices in town. The trip lasts around 3 hours.
Guests must have a reasonable level of fitness and be 12 years of age or over. Please bring: Hat, sunglasses, towel, change of clothes, sun cream or a raincoat or a suitable jacket for cold and wet conditions.
