We really enjoyed the Tour with Carlo. He is a passionate guide. We were a mixed group and even as a beginner it was a really nice tour. Beautiful nature and a stop at a beach where Carlo offered fresh baked cookies. After the tour he send us pictures of us in the kajaks. Recommand!

Full description

Join a guided kayak tour to discover the fascinating Gulf of Cagliari, immersed in a unique environment characterized by imposing cliffs, crystal clear sea, caves and small beaches. 
You will live a truly unique experience, accompanied by a local guide, also suitable for beginners after a short initial lesson that will allow everyone to learn the basics to enjoy the tour while having fun. During the excursion there are several stops for swimming and snorkeling among mullet, bream, looks and starfish.

The itinerary is approximately 7 km and includes:
- Short lesson and equipment distribution
- Departure by kayak with short transit in front of Poetto Beach
- Stop about 15 minutes in the area of Gianfranco Pools, with the possibility of snorkeling

- Passage in front of: Capo Sant'Elia, Grotta del Cavallino (where you can enter according to the weather conditions of the day), old tuff quarry, under the lighthouse of Capo San'Elia
- Stop on the ground about 30 minutes in the beach of Calamosca, with the possibility of snorkeling (there is a snack bar and bathrooms) 
- Return navigation to the starting point, with transit in front of the characteristic rocks of Crocodile and Mushroom

This experience was incredible and Carlo and his team at Olè Kayak go above and beyond to ensure you have an unforgettable experience. This was the highlight of my trip to Cagliari and one of the top experiences that I had in Italy overall. They are wonderful and patient teachers and help even the most inexperienced kayaker (me) have a wonderful time. In addition, they provide a wealth of knowledge regarding the local environment in the gulf. They even provided me with a ride back to the hotel when taxis were not available. If you do one thing on your trip to Cagliari, make it a kayak trip with Olè Kayak!
