About

We’ll show you the towering cliffs, secluded beaches and the wonderful wildlife that inhabits these shores. We’ll stop for a swim and a snorkel on quiet beaches away from the crowds. The area of the Golfo Aranci as well as the surrounding islands are all designated nature reserves and the sea kayak is the best way to explore as we can get in close to the shore, unlike larger craft. This really is an amazing way to explore the coast. And best of all, absolutely no experience is required! Most of our clients have never been in a kayak before and leave with big smiles on their faces.

##Highlights Our trips are full of excitement and wonder! There really are a lot of things to see and do. Some of the highlights are…
