We rendezvous at the waters edge of the Humacao Nature Reserve’s lagoon. Pure Adventure guide(s) will direct your party to the awaiting kayaks. As the kayaks slip off, the delights of this incredible bird sanctuary begin to unfold. There is no set route. This is free-style kayaking – you are entering deep into a pristine, wildlife reserve.
There are many inlets, canals and lagoons to explore among the mangroves. The lagoon teems with wildlife, in the water, on the water, in the mangroves, in the air. Your guides (Marine Biologists) will provide each explorer with a “Bird Identifier” card as they point out and describe the flora and fauna in this unique ecosystem. Your guides will identify species of birds by the sound of their calls.
Later in the trip we will serve light snacks of local, in-season fruits and other tasty treats with bottled water. Once refreshed, the exploration continues where kayakers will see a plethora of sea birds, iguanas sunning on mangrove branches, turtles, many species of fish and land crabs.

“The best in Puerto RIco!”
Everybody was extremely helpful and very knowledgeable! Carlos was especially generous with his time and knowledge. We went birding with him to an area that even most of the locals don't know exists. The trip was worth FAR more than it cost and I will certainly repeat as a customer and recommend them to anybody that is planning on a trip to Puerto Rico. My son is getting married next year and I am going to give him a trip to PR as a wedding gift; included in that will be the biobay and birding trips with Pure Adventure.
