Arenal Kayak Lake Crossing to Guanacaste
Fall in love with the exuberant and most adventurous Lake in Costa Rica while you paddle on your way to the Pacific Coast. Your journey starts by traveling from the epic center of La Fortuna on a comfortable transfer with our friendly driver and very knowledgeable guide who will be taking you to Costa Rica's largest lake or Central America’s second-largest.
Start your unforgettable voyage as you embark on our private boat loaded up with all the necessary gear. Meet our very friendly captain who will be encouraging you throughout the activity and taking care of your suitcases while our experienced guide will be providing you with high-quality kayaking gear like Ocean Kayak brand single and double kayaks, lifejacket and paddle along with safety instructions.
You’ll be kayaking across the never-to-be-forgotten Lake Arenal and its beautiful bays. Enjoy a pleasant time kayaking on Lake Arenal with stunning views of the Arenal Volcano and during your trip, you may observe different species of birds like the “Flycatcher,” “Kingfisher,” “Great Blue Heron” and “Anhinga” and may also possibly hear and see Howler monkeys up in the rainforest trees that surround the lake!
Make a short stop on a fascinating viewpoint that will leave you breathless. Paddle for 2.5 hours in this stunning adventure. Finish your paddling right in front of our NEW Pedal & Paddle Adventure Store in the small town of El Foforos where you will have the chance to change into your dry clothes and to fuel up with a refreshing and well-deserved delicious snack.
Go back on board just to finish crossing the lake to Rio Chiquito where our reliable and safe vehicles will be waiting for you to take you directly to Guanacaste so you can fully relax and enjoy the ride.
