The northeastern coast of Sardinia is a prime spot for sea paddling, and Ecosport Sardinia’s Capo Coda Cavallo morning kayak tour puts you right in the thick of it. Launching from Spiaggia di Cala Suaraccia in San Teodoro, this two-and-a-half-hour guided tour navigates the crystalline waters surrounding the island of Proratora and the sheltered bay of Capo Coda Cavallo, part of the Marine Park of Tavolara. This marine reserve is prized for its vivid blue and turquoise sea shades, sculpted limestone formations, and a network of marine caves that beckon to be discovered by kayak and snorkel.
The route is well suited to paddlers of all levels, with leisurely stretches giving way to intimate encounters with nature. The island of Proratora marks a standout highlight—its rocky coastline and clear waters provide an ideal habitat for abundant fish species and local marine flora. The guides from Ecosport Sardinia are not only seasoned paddlers but also knowledgeable naturalists who provide safety instruction and immerse you in the local ecosystem. The friendly, intimate group setting—max 14 paddlers with two expert guides—ensures personalized attention.
After kayaking, the tour includes a snorkeling session amid schools of fish and sea fans, with a fresh seasonal fruit break that’s perfect for refueling while soaking in the peaceful bay. This blend of adventure, education, and relaxation positions Ecosport Sardinia as a standout player in Sardinia’s outdoor recreation community.
San Teodoro’s coastal setting complements the activity, providing easy access and a memorable seascape framed by distinct Mediterranean scrub and dramatic limestone cliffs.
