Kayaking at Salt River

Visit the Salt River National Park and Ecological Preserve and paddle the calm, protected waters of the Salt River just as the Taino and Carib Indians did. A short 30 minute scenic drive will bring you here. Paddle among lush mangrove forests while spying snowy egrets, sunbathing iguanas and discovering Indian burial grounds and villages. Learn what happened when Christopher Columbus anchored outside the reef at Salt River in 1493 and paddle the same landing site as his crew did.

You’ll enjoy the park's unique combination of history, ecology, and adventure. Caribbean Adventure Tours featured on the Discovery Channel uses stable, sit on top ocean kayaks with back rests for this guided tour. Beginners and experts welcome!
