What you will do
Book Goa's most popular and celebrated kayaking excursion, Sal Backwaters. This premium experience on flat dammed up waters, is a winding journey through narrow waterways deep in the mangroves, sighting different birds, fish, otters and exotic local plants like cashew, bamboo and mango. Red/white lotus and loads of migratory birds make this a must-do for all ages. Meet at Water's Edge, Nuvem and after introductions, your tour guides will brief you on the river, the flora, fauna, how to use the kayak and what to look out for during the trip. As you slowly and silently weave your way along the narrow waterway, see loads of birds at handshaking distance! Kingfishers, cormorants, lapwings, pin-tailed ducks, pheasants, purple moorhens, white, purple and grey herons, egrets, ibis and many more among more than 70 different types which live here. If lucky, you could see otters frolicking and feeding. Glide into the lotus ponds of our Gods and ancestors! An unforgettable experience - the feeling is hard to describe! For a part of the trip, you will even be kayaking in the tall grasses/scrub. Continue kayaking until you reach the bridge. The excursion ends at the departure point.
