From the meeting place, we will take a private bus through the valleys up to Costa Brava. It's about 1 hour 20 minutes. We will drop you back off at the same place in Barcelona. The day is around 8 hours long from meeting to drop off.
We will be kayaking around the bay and exploring all the coves to discover beautiful sceneries and snorkeling spots, where we hope to find octopus, barracuda, sea breams and large shoals of different fish. We also explore some small caves in the kayaks. This is a guided tour so you will have an experienced guide to take you to the best places, with 2 – 3 hours on the water.
After all of this, we have lunch on the beach. It's a relaxing tour (though we do have some adventurous wavy days) but you build up a huge appetite. The simple yet delicious deli-style lunch consisting of sandwiches (made freshly on the beach) with local meats, cheese and salad.
You will also have a bit of time left after lunch to explore the area (depending on how long we spend on the water), do more swimming, chill out with us on the beach, a short hike perhaps or hit the bar next door for some cheeky cocktails.

Attention
– The sea can be quite fresh at the beginning and end of summer (May and September). We will provide you with neoprene spring suits, however, they don’t cover the lower leg and arms. If you feel too cold in the sea, we will concentrate more on kayaking than snorkeling
– We don’t provide fins for snorkeling. Fins can cause (and have caused) damage to the environment if you are not an experienced snorkeler. However, feel free to bring your own along if you have them.
– Sometimes we need to cancel the tour due to bad weather and unsafe sea conditions. All our guides are qualified professionals that will always put your health and safety first so please accept that when we cancel a tour, it is for your safety and enjoyment.
