Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Launch from Playa de Mogán into the Atlantic

This rental places you directly on the coast at Playa de Mogán for a short but scenic paddle along the Atlantic; the outing is compact and focused, designed to let you take the helm and enjoy open water and coastal views within a one‑hour window.

THE GEAR

A simple, safety‑focused package

Rentals come with safety instruction, life jackets, insurance, and free lockers for belongings — the operator provides two single and two double kayaks and optional photo coverage so you can focus on paddling rather than logistics.

THE PACE

Short, flexible, and family‑friendly

At just one hour, the activity is deliberately brief and suitable for a wide range of participants; you can go solo or share a double kayak, making it an easy add‑on to a day on the southern coast.

What the day feels like

What the hour feels like

You will meet at Puerto de Mogán, receive safety instructions and a life jacket, then take a single or double kayak out from Playa de Mogán to paddle a section of the Atlantic at your own pace—the hour is intended to be both relaxing and invigorating, with the option to capture the outing through an optional photo service.
