Paddle through the mangroves of the lagoon of Amber Island and discover a natural wilderness aboard a sea kayak from Bain de Rosnay!

This guided sea kayaking excursion to Amber Island, in the north-east of Mauritius, is a must-do in the Grand Gaube and Goodlands area. For around 3 hours, you will have the pleasure of navigating not only the mangrove swamps that are omnipresent in this unspoilt area, but also the crystal-clear waters of the Amber Island's lagoon in a sit-on-top sea kayak, accompanied by a guide who knows the area like no other.

What's more, a short walking tour of the island during the excursion will take you to discover its ruins, as well as its flora and fauna, which the guide will be delighted to introduce to you. You will have a short snorkeling break, and will also be able to admire the superb white sandy beach of Islet Bernache, a must for any kayak trip to Amber Island!

Whether you are on board a single or double kayak, this sea kayaking trip to Amber Island from Bain de Rosnay will allow you to share with the guide and the other participants one of the most beautiful nature experiences in Mauritius!

Very good experience 🛶 through the mangroves. The snorkling and the walk on the island were nice too and gave some historical background followed by a little snack. Definitely recommended doing it when there.
