Nohoc Chen Park: Half-Day Kayak Tour
Your day begins with pickup from your Belize City hotel or the cruise terminal. Meet your group and settle into your air-conditioned vehicle for the drive to the Nohoc Chen Caves network. Upon arrival, take an easy hike through the lush Belizean rainforest to your put-in. Hop aboard your sturdy single or tandem sit-on-top kayak and, under your guide’s watchful eye, navigate downstream along the beautiful Caves Branch River. Paddle your way through the dark caves at Nohoc Chen Park and see many rock formations and a waterfall. Bring your swimsuit and spend some time swimming in the crystal-clear water. Your tour ends with a drop-off back where you started.
