In fact, this is not possible at any time, but only during high tide! "So when is high tide?" The tides change from day to day, so you need to do some research. But don't worry! Some days it will be held in the morning, and other days in the afternoon, but no matter what time you choose, we will take you to the mangroves at high tide.
