Français: La crique gabrielle qui borde une forêt littorale permet de remonter jusqu'au lac Pali (foret immergée). La remontée de la crique Gabrielle est particulièrement intéressante, en raison de sa beauté et des différents milieux qu’elle traverse (mangrove, forêt ripicole, marais herbacé, forêt inondée). Un petit affluent de la crique Gabrielle permet de rejoindre (uniquement en saison des pluies) le magnifique lac Pali, situé sur la réserve naturelle des marais de Kaw.
