Not all skill levels

4.00Overall this trip takes you to absolutely stunning Calanques. However, it is NOT suited for all skill levels. You begin with taking the kayak you are using to dock area (which was very rocky and difficult to do). The beginning of kayaking was smooth. Once we got to open waters it was very wavy and strenuous to paddle. Stopped in a beautiful cave, went to Calanque en Vue. Had lunch there and about an hr break. (Absolutely breath taking). After stop addle back through some pretty high waves. Once arrived at dock we had to bring Kayak up hill which was rocky as well. I highly recommend this tour would add another tour guide. Also suggest the tour guide bring at least a bottle of water for passengers.
Beautiful trip!

5.00This was a beautiful kayaking trip through the Calanques. Definitely bring your water and sunscreen, as well as water shoes. Our guide was very helpful instructing us how to get in and out comfortably. We got quite lost initially trying to find the meeting point but our guide and group waited for us, which was much appreciated.
Great tour
