Overview

The story

Meet on the lagoon shore at first light, launch stable sit-on-top kayaks and paddle a guided route through the mangrove channels of Khor Al Beidah. This is a working tidal ecosystem: expect grey herons, egrets, ospreys diving for mullet, and — from October to April — flamingos on the mudflats.
