General Description

This is our shorter paddle option. This is a casual paddle up the majestic Rio Baru in Dominical. We launch from the river mouth and head up the river for about 2 kilometers.

This is a great opportunity to see the wildlife that hangs out around the river and see our adorable town from the water.

We always ask our guests whether they prefer a single kayak, a double kayak or a paddleboard. Minimum 2 people.
