kayaking with kids costa rica — Traveling With Kids Costa Rica

If you're planning a family-friendly adventure in Costa Rica, having the right gear can make all the difference. We recently put the Explorer K2 Inflatable Kayak to the test along the stunning Pacific Coast of Costa Rica, and we were beyond impressed with its performance! Whether you're kayaking with kids or seeking an exciting ocean challenge, this inflatable kayak is a must-have for your ocean adventures.

Our Kayaking Adventure from Nahomi Beach to Beisanz Beach

We kicked off our journey at Nahomi Beach in Quepos, a well-known kayaking and paddleboarding spot that’s perfect for launching kayaks. Our goal here was to kayak and paddleboard to the serene Beisanz Beach, Manuel Antonio—a route that would truly test our endurance and the durability of the Explorer K2 Kayak. With our kids on board, we were ready for an unforgettable experience.

Battling the Pacific Waves: A True Durability Test

As soon as we set off, we faced strong winds and rolling waves—ideal conditions to see just how sturdy this kayak really is. To our delight, the Explorer K2 Inflatable Kayak handled the challenge like a pro, staying stable even in rough waters. Paddling for two hours, we took breaks to enjoy the breathtaking coastline, spot marine life, and fully embrace the adventure. Although we didn’t spot any wildlife, the view was absolutely stunning.

A Relaxing Return Journey

After reaching Beisanz Beach, we took some time to snorkel, relax, and enjoy the calm, crystal-clear waters. This secluded beach is a fantastic spot for families, with gentle waves and soft sand—ideal for a well-earned break.

The trip back was a completely different experience! With calmer waters and no wind, what had taken two hours on the way there took just 40 minutes on the way back. The Explorer K2 Kayak effortlessly glided over the water, proving just how reliable and easy to maneuver it is.
