Our meeting point is a stones throw from the Arc de Triomf. You'll probably walk under it to find our meeting point at 9:45am, so you can check in and meet your guide for the day. This iconic building makes for fantasic photo opportunities and is surrounded by lively cafes, bars and resturants.

When we arrive we'll get changed into our swim suits, get all our gear and have a safety briefing and quick introduction to kayaking. Then we'll take to the sea in our kayaks and enjoy a wonderful action packed 3 hours on the water. You'll have a chance to snorkel, explore caves and coves and enjoy hearing tails and stories about the area and natural world that surrounds us. The coast is beautiful and your guide will take lots of pictures for you to enjoy for free. A locally sourced picnic lunch is included and water for your tour. After the tour, you can enjoy some time on the beach (about 3 hours) before we head back to the city to arrive at around 8pm.

Best day of our trip!

My teenaged daughter and I went on this tour and had the time of our lives! Our guide, Tim, was the perfect blend of entertaining, funny and laidback. The amount of time we spent on each part of the day was perfect. Even as a middle aged, not particularly fit woman, I was able to participate in everything. It was challenging, but not impossible. I wish I had brought water shoes (my feet struggled with the large rocks and gravelly sand), but that's the only thing I'd have done differently. My daughter loved jumping off of all the cliffs. And the community building Tim did was really helpful and not corny at all. I genuinely loved our group and felt very comfortable with them- and I'm not a very outgoing person at all. The scenery was better than I anticipated. Beautiful water, the cliffs, everything. I really had a great time. I have done several kayak themed tours over the years and every one has paled in comparison to this one. Like they weren't even in the same atmosphere as this. Both with what we did, and the cost, this has set a new bar that probably will never be met again. I wish I could hire Tim to be my guide everywhere, his knowledge and sense of humor were exactly what I wanted. Thanks so much!

Overall great trip with super tour guide Joey

It was an all-around great, fun, and action-packed experience. Our tour guide Joey was simply a likable, funny, and relaxed guy who always entertained the group, kept it lively, and kept it together. Well organized from start to finish and something for beginners as well as for amateur athletes in that direction. We would do it again! 5/5 stars!

Great tour

We had Joey Aka the temu Chris Hemsworth Australian guy. He did an amazing job showing us the coast line of Costa Brava. We felt totally safe the whole time because of his abilities and instructions.

Operator response

Thanks so much, you legend! Joey — aka Temu Chris Hemsworth 😂 — will love this. Really happy he made you feel safe and confident out on the water while showing you the Costa Brava coastline. Thanks for joining us and keep on kayaking! 🌊😎❤️

Long but comfortable bus...

Long but comfortable bus ride. Our guide Sergio had to fill in for a sick colleague. The water was beautiful but chilly. They lock up your stuff while you are on the water which is convenient. Bring a drink/water as we ate lunch on the kayak (meat and cheese sandwich or veggie). Don’t forget your sunscreen!

Operator response

Thanks so much for joining us! Sergio did a great job stepping in last minute, and we’re really happy you enjoyed the beautiful Costa Brava water 🌊😎 The journey can feel longer with normal Saturday morning and Sunday night traffic, but we always try to keep it comfortable. Great tips too — water and sunscreen are key! ☀️❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ **An Unforgettable Adventure Along the Costa Brava!**

This was one of the most exciting and memorable experiences of our trip! If you're looking for a day filled with adventure, breathtaking scenery, and fun, this tour is an absolute must. From the moment we arrived, the guides were friendly, professional, and made everyone feel welcome. They explained everything clearly, prioritized safety, and kept the atmosphere fun and relaxed throughout the day. Whether you were an experienced kayaker or a beginner, they made sure everyone felt comfortable and confident. Kayaking along the stunning coastline of **Costa Brava** was incredible. The crystal-clear turquoise water, dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, and sea caves created some of the most beautiful scenery we've ever seen. Every stop felt like something out of a postcard. The snorkeling was another highlight. The water was so clear, making it easy to see fish and marine life, and it was such a peaceful way to experience the beauty of the Mediterranean. The guides also took amazing photos throughout the day, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience without worrying about capturing every moment ourselves. For those looking for a little extra excitement, the cliff jumping was an absolute blast! It was completely optional, but such a thrilling experience and one we'll never forget. The guides made sure everyone felt safe and never pressured anyone to participate. We also appreciated having time to relax on the beautiful beach before heading back, making the day feel like the perfect combination of adventure and leisure. The only small disappointment was the lunch. While it was convenient to have a meal included, the food itself wasn't particularly memorable. That said, it certainly didn't take away from the overall experience, which was exceptional from beginning to end. Overall, this tour was incredibly well organized and offered amazing value. Between the kayaking, snorkeling, cliff jumping, spectacular views, professional guides, and fantastic photos, it was easily one of the highlights of our vacation. I would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Costa Brava and would happily do it again. Thank you to the entire team for such an unforgettable day!

Operator response

Wow, thank you so much for such a beautiful and detailed review! 🙌 We’re really happy this ended up being one of the highlights of your trip. That perfect mix of adventure, safety, scenery, good vibes and beach time is exactly what we try to create every day, so it means a lot to read this. Costa Brava really is special — the turquoise water, cliffs, caves, coves, snorkelling spots and cliff jumps make it such an unforgettable place to explore from the water 🌊😎☀️ We’re also glad you felt looked after by the guides and enjoyed the photos. We love taking them so everyone can stay in the moment and enjoy the day properly. Thanks as well for the honest note about lunch. We’re always working to improve the little details, and feedback like that genuinely helps us make the experience better. Thanks again for joining us, for recommending the tour, and for bringing such great energy. We’d love to have you back on the water one day. Keep on kayaking! ❤️

Outstanding experience

Tim went above and beyond to provide an outstanding experience for every member of our group. He clearly loves his job and enjoys sharing his enthusiasm with others. He worked hard to engage our group of adventurers from different countries with varying levels of familiarity with and comfort in the water. Worth every penny!

Operator response

Thanks so much, you legend! What a lovely review 🙌 Really happy Tim made the day special for everyone and helped the whole group feel included, safe and confident on the water. Different countries, different comfort levels, same adventure — that’s exactly the vibe we love 🌊😎☀️ Thanks for joining us and keep on kayaking! ❤️

AMAZING

We had Sergio as our instructor. He was so lovely and honestly one of the funniest people i have ever met, he was amazing throughout the whole trip and took loads of pictures so we didn’t need to bring our phones as they were kept in a locker for free! This was the perfect day out and we left at 10am and came back at around 6pm. the driving was only about an hour and a bit there and back from the meeting point which went super quickly because sergio was so entertaining🤣🤣 The sandwiches were also great.

Operator response

Thanks so much, you legend! Sergio will absolutely love this 🙌 Really happy he made the whole day so fun and entertaining, from the drive to the water. Great to hear the photos, free lockers and sandwiches all hit the mark too. Sounds like a proper perfect Costa Brava day 🌊😎☀️ Thanks for joining us and keep on kayaking! ❤️

Costa Brava is absolutely stunning. Kayaking into caves, jumping off cliffs, and snorkeling let us appreciate the beauty even more! Sergio, our guide, shared interesting stories about the area and made sure our experience was top notch. Such an awesome memory of our Spain trip!
