Kayaking
The rivers of Trinidad create a wonderful opportunity to explore tropical rain forests from a unique perspective. Renting a kayak is an exciting way to explore these rivers and forests, and is safe and easy to do. Kayaks can be rented almost anywhere along the rivers, from coffee shops to outfitters, and many even offer a guide to assist your exploration. Kayaking presents a great medium through which to view forest wildlife, especially multitudes of exotic birds on the Godineau River. All of Trinidad’s rivers eventually empty to the ocean and its bays are often worth exploring as well. River sediment makes water visibility poor, but tarpon are known to swim close to the surface and majestic sunset views are entirely worth the paddle. Tobago boasts protected lagoons like Buccoo Bay that beg to be explored via kayaking and, unlike Trinidad, you’ll be able to see right down to the coral reefs below.
