Yokahu Kayak Trips
Client Reviews on Yokahu Kayak Trips
Feedback:
Leaders were energetic and fun. Not too hard to do... it was my first time kayaking.It was a little scary going into lagoon... just because it was so dark and I felt so low in the water and was worried about snakes. It was beautiful in the lagoon but a nightmare to get out because other clueless people kept ramming us trying to get back quickly.Bioluminescent Bay was cool to see once.
Feedback:
We had a large group and everyone had a great time. Wear long sleeves to avoid mosquitoes, even with repellent! The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable--made sure everyone was safe and had fun. The ride through the mangroves was awesome--seeing the large iguanas in the trees, various frogs and crabs was cool--the rising full moon above the lagoon was amazing--the the bio-luminescence organisms was a little underwhelming. While it was neat to see some sparkles it wasn't exactly what I was expecting. Still...I would recommend taking this trip--the kids loved it.
Feedback:
My partner and I loved these guys! We had so much fun seeing the bioluminescent microorganisms and kayaking with Yokahu!
Feedback:
Definitely bring a powerful bug spray with you on the kayak and spray it on excessively before you head out. I got bit very badly on my back, arms and legs even though I had long sleeves and pants on. I wouldn’t recommend going on a full moon night-which we did. It’s too bright out therefore making it very difficult to see the organisms light up. As for the tour guides, they are excellent and very nice. I felt that they were knowledgeable and cared about our safety throughout the trip. This is definitely a workout, and you have to work well together with your partner to kayak effectively. I don’t regret going, I just wish I went in better conditions and with bug spray.

This rating has more to do with the experience than the tour operators (who were decent, but not great). We just got back this evening, everyone in our group got bit very badly by mosquitos. We sprayed with deet, and had the mosquito bands but they still got us. When I say bit badly, I would say everyone had a minimum of at least 30 bites per person. YES 30. Some of our faces are swollen terribly, and two people have their eyes swollen shut. It was just a horrible experience. We did see the illuminating microorganisms but it wasn’t worth the mosquito bites.Regarding Yokahu guides. They were professional, started close to the time, and finished on time, but didn’t go out of their way to help anyone. The tour guides should have said something about how bad the mosquitos are, because, while we applied bug repellent before the tour, we didn’t take spray with us, and after rowing and sweating and getting water on us, we could have used a reapplication. In fact we had bags with us and our guides told us to put it in our car. The Yokahu guides had no spray on them for us. After the tour we talked with other people on other tours, and their guides did give them spray, and they warned them before they started that the mosquitos were bad, which helped the other groups to better prepared (with long pants and shirts).Overall, if you are going to go on this trip, use another company, and be better prepared.Other tips. Check to see how big of a group you will be a part of. The bigger the group means other people on the group will slow you down and you will need to work more. This group is the cheapest and therefore had the largest group. It really is worth it to go with a smaller group, even if it costs more money. If you can do the electric boat, go with that option. My parents did it the same night as us and while they also go bit, it was a better experience.
