What we will do
The meeting point is 15 minutes before the indicated time in Realmonte (AG). We will be welcomed by our guide, who will provide us with all the necessaryequipment: kayak, paddle, life jacket (compulsory), mask and fins (subject to availability), waterproof bag and mobile phone case.
After a briefing of about 10 minutes on the use of the equipment and the safety rules to be observed during the experience, we will enter the water to familiarise ourselves with the kayak. Finally, the guide will explain the route we will follow and we will be ready to set off on our adventure!
Paddling eastwards, we will reach the bay in front of the Scala dei Turchi. Along the way we will admire natural pools, enchanting landscapes and transparent waters, which will allow us to catch a glimpse of the seabed.
We will make a stop of about 30 minutes at the 'do Zitu e da Zita' rocks and take the opportunity to do some snorkelling. In addition, from this point we will enjoy a privileged view of the Scala dei Turchi, an imposing white marl cliff that falls sheer to the sea.
On the way back, the guide will make us stop at another vantage point from which we can appreciate the beauty of the Realmonte coastline. Finally, after alast swim, we will return to the starting point.
The activity will last a total of 2 hours and 30 minutes.
