Moa River Canoe Trip
Moa River
Paddle or motorboat trip around Tiwai Island along the Moa River, passing riverside rainforest, kingfishers and monkey troops. In the dry season you can climb out onto rocky islets in the river.
The Moa River rises in Guinea and splits in two around Tiwai Island before flowing back together. The camp can arrange a 1.5- to 2-hour circuit of the island by canoe, paddled by a local boatman, or by motorboat. Along the way you can spot blue kingfishers, hornbills and African fish eagles, and monkey troops foraging in the riverside trees are common. In the dry season the water drops, exposing rocks and small rapids in the river, where you can climb out to rest. The fee is paid at the camp separately. Life jackets are mandatory, and bring sunscreen and a dry bag.
