Excursion Description

Come experience the thrill of kayaking down the Layou River to the Caribbean Sea.  

  • Take a 25-minute coastal drive to the launch site where you will listen to a short kayaking/paddling instruction before gliding your two-person kayak into Dominica’s longest river.  
  • Experience the excitement of steering yourself, as you plunge down the light rapids in your sit-on, state-of-the-art kayak. 
  • You’ll follow your guide through this fun-filled adventure and pause intermittently to enjoy the natural scenery.  
  • Paddle along the river, at your own pace, to the breathtaking entrance of the Layou fishing village and the Caribbean Sea. 
  • Take in the contrasting beauty of the valley behind you and the ocean view ahead.  
  • You will see the fishing boats pulled ashore after their early morning fishing expedition and have the opportunity to swim in the Caribbean Sea – with the river just a few feet away; there are not too many places in the world left to experience this!  
  • Paddle a short distance to your exit point where you will be invited to sample complimentary local rum punch and fresh fruits. 

Note:  Minimum age is 8 years; maximum weight is 250 lbs.  Kayaking journey is approximately 1 mile.  Back rests, paddles and life vests are provided.  Pregnant women and guests with back/neck injuries, heart conditions, or recent surgery are not permitted on this excursion.
