Les avis de nos clients.
What I enjoyed most was being able to explore places you can’t see from the beach. We paddled along the coast and took in some stunning scenery. Kayaking takes a bit of effort, but that’s exactly what makes it such a fun outing. I’d recommend taking a two-seater kayak if you want to share the experience and help each other out!
We’d booked this activity for a bit of a change from our days on the beach, and it turned out to be a lovely surprise. I loved the feeling of being out in the water, surrounded by cliffs and the sound of the waves. You get to take the time to enjoy the scenery whilst getting some exercise without even realising it. A wonderful discovery during our stay in the Basque Country.
We opted for the day-long hike and it was a real little adventure! The start of the walk, the route along the coast, the sections near the rocks… it felt as though we were discovering a whole new side to the region. Make sure you bring something to eat and drink, as you’ll be enjoying the outing so much that you won’t notice the time passing. An experience I’d highly recommend to nature lovers!
