The Mangrove Tunnels Trail – Bohol’s Hidden Waterway

No crowds. No noise. No fake eco-tourism. Just you, your paddle, a knowledgeable professional Kayak guide and a labyrinth of winding mangrove tunnels that feel like nature’s best-kept secret.
This is the Mangrove Tunnels Trail, exclusively run by Kayakasia Philippines—a low-impact, high-reward kayaking experience that gets you deep into the real heart of the island.

This isn’t a ride-along tour. You’re not a passenger. You’re the one steering. You’ll paddle through a surreal network of mangrove corridors—narrow, shifting, alive. Some tunnels are a secret passage way to hidden sections of the Mangrove forests. Others open into section of the main river where you will learn all about the local cultures and the local community. There’s no motor. No guide shouting through a megaphone. Just the rhythm of your paddle, the occasional wingspan of a heron overhead, and the sharp awareness that this place doesn’t exist for show. It exists because it’s been protected, with Help from Kayakasia Philippines and the local river community.

What makes this different? First: exclusivity. We run with extremely limited slots. Small groups only. That’s not a gimmick—it’s a choice. It protects the ecosystem and makes the experience something that actually feels rare. Second: this trail is part of an active conservation corridor. The 32 species of mangroves here—including the endangered Camptostemon philippinense—play a crucial role in preventing coastal erosion, protecting fish nurseries, and storing carbon. By paddling here, you’re not ticking off a tourist checklist—you’re supporting local conservation and giving real economic value to preserving this environment.

You’ll be guided by someone who knows this river—These are local paddlers, trained and certified, who live here and understand this water like the back of their hand. They’ll point out a variety of plants and the abundance of birds. Show you the crab holes in the mud. Talk about how typhoons used to devastate this area—and how the mangroves are fighting back.

This experience is suitable for beginners and if you’re looking for one thing in Bohol that’s genuinely different—not another selfie stop or beach bar—this is it.

You can say you’ve really been to Bohol when you’ve paddled its veins.
