Kayak trip in Puerto Jimenez

Before heading to Corcovado, we tried to take a kayak trip in Puerto Jimenez, but a storm rolled in after we were already in the kayaks and paddling out into the ocean. We had to turn around and postpone the trip. We decided to give it a try again after getting back from Corcovado and it was a perfect evening for it. This plant here was one of the many in the beautiful garden that was on the way to go out kayaking. The plant grows like crazy down here and has a really beautiful pink color. I wanted to include it for any plant lovers.


In the kayak tour, we were lucky because it was high tide. Because of that, we were able to start out going along the mangroves. They are really amazing plants that protect the land from storms and clean the salt out of water with no problems at all. It was really pretty to kayak along through these. We saw caimans and lots of birds while back there.


We then came up to a spot, where we pulled the kayaks onto land and carried them over a levy to the side where the beach was. It was a great beach and we went simming and had the best pinapples ever. They are white pinapples that grow down here and were so moist and sweet.


We paddled back to shore right at sunset and it made the perfect picture with the Panama tree set in the background. It was a really fun trip.
