Description

Start your day with an unforgettable sea kayaking adventure along one of the most spectacular stretches of the Costa Brava. Departing in the early morning, when the sea is typically calm and the coastline still peaceful, this experience offers ideal conditions to explore safely, comfortably, and away from crowds. You will paddle an individual closed sea kayak — the type used for true coastal touring. These kayaks are faster, more stable in open water, and provide protection from splashes, allowing you to travel farther and more efficiently than with recreational sit-on-top kayaks. No previous experience is required. After meeting your professional guide, you will receive a comprehensive safety briefing and clear paddling instruction, including how including how to enter, exit, and control the kayak. Once equipped, you will launch directly into the crystal-clear Mediterranean and begin following the dramatic coastline. The route passes beneath rugged cliffs, alongside hidden coves, and over transparent, vividly colored waters. You will paddle past notable sites such as Les Sofreres, Cala del Molí — famous for its spectacular seaside via ferrata — Cala Ametller, and the striking cliffs and channels of Cap de Mort. The highlight of the tour is reaching the Cova dels Rats Penats, a sea cave accessible only from the water, located in the bay of Sant Pol–S’Agaró. Weather and sea conditions permitting, you may approach or even enter the cave, experiencing this unique natural formation carved into the granitic cliffs. Your guide will maintain a relaxed, comfortable pace while ensuring safety at all times. The small-group format (maximum 7 participants) guarantees personal attention and a quieter experience in nature. The total duration is approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, including preparation and return to shore. Photos taken during the activity are included at no additional cost, allowing you to keep lasting memories of your time on the Costa Brava. All necessary equipment is provided: individual closed sea kayak, paddle, life jacket, spray skirt, and an optional wetsuit in cooler weather. A support motorboat is available if required, and a secure place is provided to store personal belongings on land.
