You push off from a small pebble strip and the kayak answers with a clean, confident stroke. Rock faces slope away in bands of ochre and white; the sea, baked by the Mediterranean sun, becomes a window into a world of light and shadow. Over the next two and a half hours you'll thread through fingers of limestone, drift before a cave mouth, and lower your mask to meet the reserve’s clear waters.
