Additional Info

- BAD WEATHER: in case of bad weather conditions, we reserve the right to cancel the tour up to 1 hour before departure. Communication will take place via email. For this reason, please always check your email inbox for new messages. The whole cost of the tickets will be refund.
- PHISICAL REQUIREMENTS: our tours are made to be joined by anyone, especially beginners. The distances are relatively short and no particular skill or strength is required. Nonetheless, good physical shape and a weight strictly less than 100kg are required. The instructor reserves the right to check the weight of the participants and to prevent anyone weighing 100kg or more from starting. No refund is provided in this case.
- CHILDREN: the minimum age to join our tours is 6 years. Up to the age of 12, children will have to go in a double kayak together with an accompanying adult. From 12 years up there are no limits. The adult with a child in a double kayak must be in very good physical shape to drive a double kayak (longer and heavier) alone. The cost of the ticket for a child is lower than for an adult. For this reason the instructor reserves the right to check his identity document before departure which the adult is therefore required to bring with him. In the event that an age is different from that declared at the time of booking or is not compatible with participation in the tour, the instructor reserves the right to request an addition to the cost of the ticket or to prevent departure. No refund is provided in the latter case.
- WHAT TO BRING: sunscreen, half liter bottled water (to put under the bungee in front of the kayak seat), anti-nausea medicine (to be taken before the trip if you suffer from seasickness)
- CLOTHING: swimsuit, T-shirt, water shoes (closed shoes that can get wet as an alternative. Flip-flops are not recommended), hat, sunglasses with safety lanyard
- PERSONAL BELONGING: we will keep non-bulky valuables such as wallets, cell phones and car keys. Small bags or backpacks can be stored in the hatches of the kayaks or in the car of the guide. Be careful because in the hatches the backpack could get wet and we are not responsible for any theft of anything stored in the guide’s car.
- SEA KAYAKING SKILL: the course for beginners, has the task of making everyone, especially beginners, able to go kayaking with the minimum skill required for carrying out the trip. However, it may happen that, despite the course for beginners and the instructor’s tips given in the water, the minimum skill required for carrying out the tour are not achieved. For example, an insufficiency in balance may occur which causes repeated capsizing or in the execution of the circular stroke to change direction. Unfortunately, in a group experience the instructor in the water cannot dedicate a lot of time to a person who may be in difficulty since during this time the entire group remains without a guide and a longer time could be dangerous for the success of the tour for the entire group. In these cases, at the sole discretion of the instructor in the water, it will not be possible to join the tour and the person will be accompanied to the starting point. A refund of 50% of the ticket cost is expected.
- PARTICIPANTS MINIMUM NUMBER: if the minimum number of participants is not reached, we reserve the right to cancel the trip up to 1 hour before departure. Communication will take place via email. For this reason, please always check your email inbox for new messages. The whole cost of the tickets will be refund.
- PICTURES: the guide will take numerous pictures during the kayak tour and participants will receive the link to download them for free via email. It is not recommended to carry your mobile phone with you as it could get damaged or fall into water and furthermore its use represents an unnecessary source of distraction.
- KAYAK SINGLE OR DOUBLE: The number of single and double kayaks is limited, it is not possible to choose them in advance. The guide will assign them based on the preferences of the participants and technical evaluations. If you want a double, for example, usually, you can choose it. We have four double kayaks. However, there may be children under 12 in the group who must go in a double kayak accompanied by an adult. Only in that case might they not be enough. But this is quite rare.
- The experience is not suitable for people weighing more than 100kg
- This tour/activity will have a maximum of 13 travelers

We had a great day kayaking along the coast with Marco. It was a great experience and he patiently showed us how to operate a kayak and how to correctly use the paddles.
I definitely recommend the experience!

Wonderful experience! The guide was very knowledgeable and gave us excellent tips on sea kayaking that definitely helped us to be very efficient when maneuvering the kayak. The scenery was magnificent and the sea caves were truly a spectacular experience. 10/10!

Una bellissima esperienza, all'inizio un piccolo corso di preparazione per meglio manovrare il kayak, poi siamo partiti per esplorare una grotta, seguita da un tuffo dalla scogliera nuotata in grotta e bagno nella sorgente. Un esperienza indimenticabile.

Esperienza molto piacevole, un piccolo sforzo ripagato da un bel tuffo in acque fredde. Istruttore molto preparato e disponibile

Magnifica esperienza, personale gentile e cortese. Kayak semplice da utilizzare e tour sulla costa molto caratteristico.
Davide_C, Jul 2023
La spiegazione per quanto riguarda la teoria, per l'uso della pagaia e la storia del kayak molto carina. Il battesimo del kayak molto bello

Super expérience pour passer un moment en famille tout en découvrant de super grottes avec un guide très sympa. Le petit plus d’avoir des photos après la sortie en mer ! On recommande

Questa esperienza in kayak in mare aperto è stata davvero bella, alternativa, avventurosa, il personale molto gentile, preparato e simpatico, le grotte che abbiamo visitato stupende.
Unica pecca è un po' "pesante" a livello fisico, se non si è un po allenati resta difficoltoso pagagliare tutto quel tempo però lo consiglio senz'altro.

Belle expérience ! Les enfants se sont aussi régalés ! Merci pour la gentillesse de l’animateur, nous avons passé un agréable moment en pleine nature.

Esperienza unica e fantastica, da rifare assolutamente! Nel tour si vedono luoghi molto belli e si provano sensazioni uniche.

E' stata una esperienza straordinaria e indimenticabile! L'Istruttore Marco ci ha dato tutti gli elementi per pagaiare ma soprattutto tanta fiducia. Nonostante il mare non fosse calmissimo e per noi fosse la prima volta in kayak, siamo riusciti, grazie al suo attento supporto, in questa esperienza meravigliosa completata dalla bellezza dell'itinerario, di Porto Selvaggio e del tramonto. Terminata l'escursione abbiamo lasciato il porticciolo con tantissimo entusiasmo e carichi di adrenalina, con il desiderio di ripetere l'esperienza al più presto!
