Overall, we really... - Overall, we really enjoyed the experience as beginner kayakers. The day goes by very quickly so I recommend having your bathing suit under your clothes ready to go. I also recommend buying the water shoes there or bringing your own as the sand contains pebbles and the rocks may be sharp when snorkeling. You can get by being a beginner at kayaking, but You definitely need to have some athletic and swimming ability to do this excursion so just keep that in mind! The water felt great and it was a beautiful experience. Lunch is a quick sandwich on the beach and then we headed back to the meeting point. This trip is mainly only kayaking and some snorkeling!

amazing!! - such a fun outing! the whole day was so fun, we really enjoyed being able to swim around and explore. Andy our guide was super cool and chill really made the whole trip amazing. wetsuits were included which was great because it was a little overcast when we started but the water was so warm and we saw so many fish and amazing wildlife!! definitely recommend if you’re tired of walking through museums and want something more lowkey!

An enjoyable day in the water - Mark was adequate as a guide, but the experience could have been enriched had he used the 2.5-hour bus ride to share more about himself, Costa Brava, or Spanish culture. While he greeted us and provided instructions, he didn’t engage much with the group, which gave the impression that he wasn’t particularly enthusiastic about being there. Upon arrival, we were introduced to the kayak and snorkelling instructors. The beach is quite pebbly, so swim shoes are highly recommended. If you don’t have any, they’re available for purchase onsite (12 euros for swim shoes, 10 euros for waterproof phone cases). The activity itself included kayaking, snorkelling, and a second kayaking leg to a spot where you could snorkel and cliff jump. Unfortunately, the snorkelling sites were underwhelming—lacking vibrant marine life and mostly grey in appearance. That said, the instructors were helpful and attentive, especially when assisting those whose kayaks had flipped. The picnic lunch was basic: a large sub sandwich with minimal meat, lettuce, tomato, and a bottle of water.

Great guides, but room for improvement in the organization - The journey from Barcelona takes about 1.5 hours. A “picnic” is a topped baguette with tomato and sausage that you then have to eat standing or sitting somewhere – unfortunately, there are no seats or shades. The guides themselves are really great: very warm, helpful and dedicated. However, the organisation as a whole could be improved.
