We had booked a kayak from 9am-12pm. Although we were on site very early, the check in only opened at 9am sharp (although the staff were already on site). The briefing was very (too) detailed: anyone who has ever kayaked knows how to hold a paddle... There were some other guests on site, so we could only start at 9:30 am. So we were only available 2.5 hours on the water: too short to reach the island or Muggle Bay in peace: paddling there, looking and back again in a sprint... a great pity that - despite demand - the 30 minutes were not left to us (no, the kayaks were not fully booked for the afternoon!). The entrance to the sea is very slippery, here a railing / handrail would be very helpful and would prevent some falls with risk of injury. The looseners are not locked - anyone can open the compartments. Valuables should not be kept there. The price for 2.5h kayaking (56 € per boat for 2 guides) I find very expensive. We would have liked to book the kayak for the whole day: at 84€ it was much too expensive for us!
Great experience! People are nice. Clear and easy explanations.

Home / briefing and equipment at the top! Kayaking around the green island in the morning with 2 15 year olds. 20/30 minutes to reach the island from the base.
Great way to spend the day!

Although we were an hour late, Justine was very kind and understanding of our tardiness. She was very lovely and gave us a good demo on how to paddle properly, and equipped us in the appropriate kit. Although we encountered some choppy waters whilst on our way to the calanques, where we got to swim around by lovely beaches. There is a possibility to visit and island with a restaurant which is very fun. We greatly enjoyed the trip. Would highly recommend, especially if the day is sunny!
Good nature experience!

We had a very warm welcome from the team on arrival with great advice for the itinerary and the many caves to discover in the coves!! A little photo taken at the start as a bonus is a good idea! We had a great time in a superb place! I highly recommend Expenature!

An exploratory kayak experience with water caves and an island to explore on foot is you choose. What a great way to spend a day. We began at 9:00 sharp to get as much time as possible. Love every minute.
