Overview
Paddle through the serene mangrove-lined backwaters of the Sal River in South Goa — a world away from the busy beaches. This 2-hour guided kayaking experience takes you through narrow waterways teeming with birdlife including kingfishers, white-bellied sea eagles, and egrets. Otters are occasionally spotted in the quieter channels. Snacks and water are provided at a midway rest stop, and no kayaking experience is required.
