Overview

Pioneers of sea kayaking in Cuba, we offer numerous itineraries to this exciting kayak destination. We kayak 2-4 hours a day and then enjoy the culture, music and people of Cuba while staying in boutique hotels or BnB's along the way. Paddle your way through sparkling Caribbean waters and snorkel over reefs full of life and color. Our east Cuba kayak tour paddles the Atlantic with plenty of culture and time to discover Cuba's wild and natural spirit.

Expertly crafted and led by local Cuban guides, our tours are 8-days in length. The Cuba West kayak tour starts and ends in Havana, while the East tour starts and ends in Holguin. These tours combine the fun of sea kayaking with rich cultural interactions with the Cuban people. We walk, explore, paddle and learn on these immersive journeys to a country that is in some ways lost in time.
