Would recommend!

Nice atmosphere, amazing views and great experience! Coming back on kayak was diffucult due to wind and waves, you need to keep in mind that you're on the sea.

Excellent experience!

We though we would only be renting the kayak but we got a very detailed safety briefing which was much appreciated. The kayak included spare paddles, a flair and a dry compartment. Extremely professional overall. Just don't get late like we did because the safety briefing is for several people at the same time. We left the car at their place and they took us in their van to the beach and at the end picked us up. Follow the instructions and tips of the instrutor and you will be fine. We even managed to spot several baby fur seals swimming up close. Excellent experience overall!

Very nice experience

Very nice and relaxed organization. They gave a clear and even funny safety instruction and let us go on out own quickly. Pick-up was nicely arranged. Some equipment seemed to be a little worn though, but nothing that hindered us from having an awesome day.
