Full description

Discover the postcard-worthy Côte Bleue calanque as you ride a kayak past beautiful bays, striking cliffs, and quaint little homes. Follow your guide from Estaque in Marseille, all the way to Carry-le-Rouet, for a comprehensive overview of this gorgeous natural area.

After a short briefing, route presentation, and weather report, head out with all the necessary knowledge to have a fun and safe experience. Explore the creeks of Establon and Aragnols with a beautiful little beach. Depending on the group's pace, you might even be able to reach the magnificent Figuerolles creek.

Learn about each little hidden corner from your certified guide and admire the mindblowing rocky sceneries as you float along. Additionally, you can do your part to take care of the local sea life by picking up floating waste and loading it into the bag your kayak comes equipped with.

Beginners are advised to choose the morning tour, as the sea is generally calmer than in the afternoon.

Such a wonderful experience. Our guide was engaging, humorous and pointed out the local wildlife and birds we saw along the way. I recommend paying the additional rental fee for a back rest and snorkel mask. It’s not expensive and greatly enhances the experience. Best to go earlier in the day and ideally on a not too windy day so that the water is calmer. 10/10 I would do it again!

A fantastic morning session exploring the coastline. The guide was fabulous and spoke in English to the group. We chose this activity based on our love of water sports and were not disappointed. Great little pit stop at a small secluded spot with the chance to climb or swim. Thank you for making our day memorable - we were celebrating our wedding anniversary!

This was a great day out. Great hosts. Not the best choice if your not into exercise as its a considerable distance but we loved it. Only critique, I wish we'd have done something more fun on the mini beach we rested on before we headed back (BBQ, Ice cream, anything).
