Les avis de nos clients.

Canoe trip

We went on a Hawaiian canoe trip with some friends during our holiday in the Basque Country and it was absolutely brilliant! We loved having to paddle together and find our rhythm. It’s physically challenging, fun and really sociable. The bay of Saint-Jean-de-Luz is stunning when viewed from the water. We’d 100 per cent recommend it as an activity that’s a bit out of the ordinary!
