- Half adventure, half relaxation - the perfect mixture and time went by very quickly. We learnt the paddling techniques on the fly and our guides Tommaso and Lucho were remarkably considerate and forthcoming. There was a snorkeling detour, too, and they even prepared some apperitifs on a small island. Also, they took our time constraint into account (we had to leave earlier) and still managed to make it an unforgettable experience for the whole group. Highly recommended!

Kayak tour La Maddalena - Beautiful day in Kayak with Daniele to guide us through the crystal clear waters of the archipelago from the base camp near the bridge that goes to the island of Caprera up to the beach of polp and then stop with an aperitif prepared on site by Daniele: guttiau bread, super-pecorino cheese and grapes, all washed down with fresh vermentino:-) Always nice to do certain excursions by kayak especially when you have the opportunity to visit incredible places such as the archipelago of La Maddalena. Daniele was very professional and helpful. Money really well spent and highly recommended experience.

Best way to experience La Maddalena and the beauty of Sardinia with Family - Excellent experience. No need to bring any extra water or snacks. The best guide Gabrielle has thought of everything and serves really nice local aperitif with cold ice tea on the rocks. Very kind, helpful and a really nice human being. Easy to park the car free of charge just outside the club. Initially it was a little difficult to make out the name on the board outside on the road. But Gabrielle came and received us at the front. So all good

Kayak best way - Good guide, easy kayaking only 20 minutes to reach our first stop. Near the rock only with kayak we can arrive in the best spots without boats.

Beautiful kayak trip to La Maddalena - Nice starting point, in a small beach club before the bridge to Caprera. We paddled for about 20 minutes and immediately arrived in a beautiful cove of the octopus beach. Nice swim, with snorkeling worth the ticket price. A good way to make an excursion to La Maddalena without too much effort.
