This human-made lake is a dam constructed in 1979, almost a decade after the Arenal Volcano awakening explosion in 1968. It has become one of the biggest attractions in the area and beautiful addition to the landscape. Here people gather to practice fishing, wakeboarding, jet skiing, sailing, and of course kayaking.

Once we arrive at Arenal Lake’s edge, our team will give you a quick safety talk and some kayaking techniques to set you up. Then, we will start kayaking for 2 ½ hours through different areas of the lake that can vary depending on weather and wind conditions.

While you enjoy the ride, you might see a variety of birds flying and fishing around. You can also take a refreshing swim in the lake, surrounded by many wonders as Arenal Lake is an impressive stage in every corner. It’s hard to imagine the view before this lake existed. It matches amazingly well with the rest of the landscape such as the Arenal volcano and Monteverde’s mountains.

You’ll learn many facts from this experience as well since Arenal Lake is the largest and most famous lake in Costa Rica. It was built in 1979 to provide hydroelectric energy for the country but became a whole landmark for us.

Experience peace, breathe the clean air, and if the weather is sunny, get a fabulous tan while paddling across this vast body of water. Join Us!
