Description
Canoes Adventure
Taino's Canoe in Los Haitises National Park
Oersicht
Curious about the daily life of the Taínos? With the Taino Adventure activity, you’ll be transported back in time to experience the world of the indigenous peoples of the Dominican Republic.
The canoe was arguably the most important part of the lives of the Taínos. With it, they fished, traveled to smaller islands, communicated with other tribes, and visited shamans for rituals, healing, and prophesy. At Booking Adventures, we want to immerse you into the world of the Taínos.

Wat te ferwachtsjen?
In this activity, you’ll set out in the hand-crafted canoes, just as the Taínos did. You’ll hear many of the sounds that marked their connection with nature: the call of cranes, the dip of crabs into the water, and the gentle lapping of waves against natural rock formations. The arches of the mangrove roots will remind you of cathedrals, and indeed, the Taínos (although they didn’t have churches) were deeply spiritual. Once you’ve set out with our guide, you’ll enjoy the rich variety of birds, reptiles, and fish of the mangroves. Bedazzled at the sparkle of the waves winking in the morning light, the mountains of Samaná in the distance, and the emerald green of the swaying palms.
Next, you’ll be able to visit some of the caves that were especially important to the Taínos. They traveled from cave to cave visit wise men, take shelter from hurricanes, and as meeting points with other tribes. Once you’re in the caves, you’ll be able to appreciate the silence and the hallowed aura of the space. You’ll see some of the rock carvings, called petroglyphs, that represent their deities and spirits. Finally, you’ll be able to taste some of the same tropical fruit that Taínos gathered before you head back to the meeting point.
In this tour, our expert guides will describe the many uses of the canoe, how the Taínos lived before the time of Columbus, and how the mangrove forest is essential for the health of the environment.
