About This Adventure
Start your morning on the water before the island heats up. This Salt River paddle covers the full span of the bay, from deep mangrove tunnels to the open ocean edge. Herons fish from the roots, terns dive overhead, and small sharks patrol the shallows. Your guide ties the natural history of Salt River Bay to what you see in real time, from colonial sugar works to the Columbus landing site. Clear kayaks are available for the full below-the-surface view.
