    I highly recommend the sea kayaking tour with the River Natural! The booking process was simple and organized. The route was quiet, especially for me who had little experience in kayak, thanks to the instructions of Alexandre, who besides excellent instructor is super friendly. I hope to be back soon for new experiences!
