Please kindly recheck the pickup details, meeting point, and session time stated on the voucher for your selected package.

Explore the Bouche du Roy on an immersive tour in a covered motorboat, which is ideal for sailing in comfort in both sun and rain. Your adventure begins in the heart of an impressive mangrove tunnel, a natural corridor that reveals an ecosystem rich in plant and animal species. You will then head to Bird Island, a refuge for many migratory species, and learn about their history and behaviors.
The tour continues on to the salt-producing island, where you will meet women organized into small cooperatives who carry on a traditional craft. After this cultural immersion, you will enjoy a tasting of fresh coconut, which is valued both for its refreshing properties and for its local preventive benefits. Throughout the cruise, you will observe various fishing techniques typical of Grand-Popo.
The tour ends at the Bouche du Roy, the spectacular mouth of the Mono River, where mangroves, swamps, and the island landscape create a unique natural panorama. Picnicking, fishing, or swimming are available on request as add-on options.
