Full description

Kayak past secluded coves and inlets on this guided kayaking tour from Malaga to the Cliffs of Maro-Cerro Gordo. Look for local wildlife as you travel from La Herradura Beach to the Cave of the Virgin. Cool off with swim stops along the way.

Meet your guide in the city center of Malaga and hop aboard a comfortable air-conditioned coach. Relax on the drive to the tour supplier's facilities in La Herradura where you can store anything you wish to keep dry in the provided lockers.

Get set up with your high-quality kayaking tour and embark on your coastal adventure. Keep an eye out for marine life and mountain goats that like to visit the rocks by the sea. Arrive at Calaisa beach where you can spend time to admire its peculiar formation and marine life.

The taxi ride was good. Van was on time and had good air con. The way back was also on time. On arrival we had to wait about 30 minutes. There were no lockers as described. With little explanation we set off, the trip was not much, but we went along the cliffs and saw a mini cave. The guide told little or nothing during the trip. The kayak and life jackets were good for each other. Looking at what we paid for it compared to what you get for it, I think it's a bad price-quality ratio.

Excellent transport by private van equipped with air conditioning. Once we arrived, our guide waited for us and accompanied us to put down our personal items and take the kayak. Too bad for the communication, in fact we had chosen the English language but the guide confessed to us that he didn't know how to speak it well, so in the end we understood each other between English, Italian and Spanish half words. The tour was almost self-managed since we were not given much information about what surrounded us, the beautiful sea and the landscape, but we expected a real guided tour! The kayak trip takes about 2 hours. Certainly there is potential but we need to improve especially for the asking price!
