Overview

Discover the untouched beauty of Aruba Nature Adventure Kayak’s Spanish Lagoon Mangrove Trail & Bird Watching experience. This private excursion takes you through a protected wetland, offering a serene walk along the mangrove-laced trails while immersing yourself in Aruba’s unique flora and fauna.

You’ll witness ancient Amerindian shell middens, explore the ruins of the Balashi Gold Smelter, and visit the haunted Frenchman’s Pass, all while keeping an eye out for Aruba’s national treasure, the Burrowing Owl (Shoco)—one of the most photogenic creatures on the planet. This journey promises breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and a chance to connect with nature like never before.

Mangrove magic Jorge did a great tour for us, an easy walk exploring the lush lagoon and a gold mining site. We saw lots of lizards, birds, and found a fossil. He is a knowledgeable guide and an interesting entrepreneur, fun to talk to at lunch.
