Paddling around in a kayak offers a very different perspective and is a super-silent and stealthy way to sneak around, exploring the islands and forested coves of the Ndogo Lagoon. Sightings of just about anything, small to big, are on the menu, but the kayaks are an especially fun platform from which to enjoy the antics of monkeys and birds in the trees along the water and if luck is on one’s side, one might even get to see the ridiculously shy and rare West African manatee.
