5.00We booked this exceptional tour with a trimaran, and had a great day with the guide Philippe. Sailing with the Polynesian canoe gives you an idea of what it is like in the South Seas. Lobos Island with its beautiful lagoon facilitates this performance. It's a very special way to get there instead of taking the motorized ferry like most people.
cool paddling tour

5.00We had a lovely family tour with a delicious snack on the island of Lobos. As we encountered high waves and wind force 5 on the way back, we really had to make an effort. A great experience.

5.00Mahva Kayak has fine surf ski and outrigger canoes. They have to all levels from beginners to experts. The sea off Coralejo offers opportunities for many different experiences. The water is quiet inside the bay and out on the sea you can experience large waves depending on the wind which provides good play opportunities for the demanding rooster. The owner of Maeva Kayak is very passionate about surf skiing and outrigger canoe sports and makes sure that his customers get a good experience.

5.00Phillipe has a great knowledge of ski and OC paddling but also an immense appreciation for the island, its fauna and its history which he is only too willing to share with you. Phillipe is a gent and true waterman, he treasures the "mana" of the past and celebrates its future with everyone he Paddles with. Highly recommended 🤙

5.00Phillipe was very patient with both my nervous unbalanced self and my 9 year old. He let me try 3 different types of kayak until I found one I felt stable in. Kayaking with wind and waves was very different from the lake version we had done before, but we always felt safe. Would recommend.
Outstanding experience!

5.00Such a great experience! First of all, Phillipe gladly agreed to a tour out with me, even though I was flying solo, which is so appreciated (I often have a hard time finding tours that will take fewer than two people and I usually travel alone). His instructions on where to meet were very thorough, which is always nice. As far as the trip, it was an absolute pleasure to spend time with Phillipe. He is full of knowledge about the area and easy to chat with. He provides excellent instruction on the hows and whys of paddling. And, I felt very comfortable and safe at all times. He provides a wetsuit, life jacket, snorkel, water, lunch, and plenty of local information and details. We had a great trip out to the island, and he took me on a walking tour around and I quickly became convinced that a trip to Fuerteventura is incomplete without a trip to Los Lobos. During our time on the island, the weather began to change, and Phillipe discussed our options with me. We ended up leaving the canoe on the island and hopping another boat back, which is a pretty rare occurrence, FYI. I credit Phillipe for being so safety conscious and tied into the local community that we had more than one Plan B. I didn’t share with Phillipe that I had originally hoped to do a SUP tour, but in the end, I feel lucky that I ended up on this incredible adventure.
Our Best day out on the island.

5.00We had an amazing day kayaking across to the island. We considered taking a boat trip, but thought this would be more memorable and I'm so glad we did - it was fantastic and you really feel like you've achieved something for the day. Lunch was tasty and you always felt like Philippe knew exactly what was going on with everyone in the group. If you're looking for something to do for the day - I highly recommend this.
Phillipe is The Surfski Warrior! The best instructor I've ever come across.

5.00The best thing to do in the Canaries...I think I may stay here, just to keep doing this! I had a couple of surfski lessons with Maeva Kayak. The instructor/owner, Phillipe, is a Surfski Warrior! Amazing tutor. I was surfing waves on the first time out with him. He gave me so much more confidence on the water & surfski after just a couple of hours. He's obviously very experienced and knowledgeable and makes sure he passes as much of this on to you as he can. He's very clear and direct with instructions to make sure you know how to be safe on the water and how to be an effective paddler, so that you can improve your skills and have the most fun on the water. It's really nice that he takes pictures of you and sends them to you, so you have memories and don't have to worry about taking your own phone / camera. :-) He also does tours to Lobos Island (you don't need any experience), where you can go snorkelling and have a picnic. I will definitely be doing this before I leave Corralejo. Highly recommend to everyone.
