Kayaking Tour in the Sal Backwaters for Two

The magic of Mother Nature has rarely been clearer than with this gorgeous and relaxed kayaking tour along the Zuari River. The Sal Backwaters of Goa, India’s smallest state, are famed for kayak tours, and without doubt the best time to go if you have the chance is from late December to January, when the waters are liberally speckled with pink blossoms fallen from the trees. The sights and sounds of the forest surround you, immersing you in the beauty of nature, as you paddle gently along.

If birds are your passion, this Goa gift experience is a must, as the wildlife on display is spectacular - from kingfisher, heron, stork and kite to sea eagles, bee-eaters, pin-tailed ducks and egrets, and many more besides. Drift through lotus ponds, like red and white carpets spread across the surface of the river, and feel yourself unwinding in the serene splendour of Goa.
