      We will leave by minibus and carpool to the practice site which can be redefined according to the weather conditions. 15 to 20 min

      Arriving on site, the guide will help you make some adjustments in the kayak and explain how to best use the paddle. You will even have time to practice during an initiation on the water to perfect your paddle maneuvers. 30 to 45 min

      When everyone is ready the hike begins. In acceptable weather conditions, it is considered to pass Cap Croisette to go around Maïre Island. This island is protected because many birds nest there and is located in the Calanques National Park. In the south of the island you will sail by sea kayak at the foot of magnificent limestone cliffs which makes this tour very impressive. 2:00. A swimming break is sometimes possible.
