The second stage of this activity is to do Surfing with the Kayak on the shore of the Whale’s Tail ,which is fun and suitable for all types of people. Then as we reach the beach, the tide allows the kayaks to enter into a small mangrove forest which is protected by the Ballena Marine Park where it is possible to see some wildlife of this habitat . As you paddle in the channels of its tranquil waters you will learn about the importance of this ecosystem and about the species that live there. If the time allows us ,the guide will take you for a short walk in the trails that surround the mangrove forest and see more of this wonderful place.
