Punta Mona Boat Tour
Skim the refuge coastline from Manzanillo to Punta Mona, a secluded beach that no road reaches.
On the water
Punta Uva is where the coast road south of Puerto Viejo de Talamanca, Limón, turns quiet and green. On this 3.5-hour outing you paddle a calm jungle river in a single or double kayak, then walk a short trail to the Punta Uva Viewpoint for a sweeping look over the Southern Caribbean.
Prices as listed in our current tour book, in US dollars. Our team confirms the final price (per person or per group, and taxes) when you request.
The river is the heart of it. The paddling is unhurried, the water is calm, and the banks are thick with green, exactly the kind of place where sloths, monkeys and tropical birds are often spotted. Keep your eyes on the canopy and your paddle quiet: wildlife here keeps its own schedule.
After the paddle, a short hike leads up to the Punta Uva Viewpoint, a panoramic spot above the coastline, and fresh fruit is part of the break. When the weather allows, or in the dry season, the outing can include ocean kayaking; otherwise it stays on the river and the nature trails. River, trails and viewpoint all sit close together, which keeps the experience easy and enjoyable for all levels.
Transport to Punta Uva is not included. It lies about 7.7 km by road from the hotel, so ask our team about the easiest way to get there when you send your request.

No experience is needed. The tour is rated easy and designed to be enjoyable for all levels: you paddle a calm jungle river at Punta Uva in a single or double kayak, then take a short hike to the viewpoint. Ocean kayaking is added only when the weather allows or in the dry season, so on other days the whole outing stays on the calm river and the trails.
