At dusk you push off from shore and glide across glassy water toward a low, molten horizon. The Sunset Paddle Tour threads the protected marine reserve around El Rincón, giving paddlers a compact, 1.5-hour window to drink in wide coastal light while certified lifeguards and provided safety gear keep the focus on the sea and sky.

What the day feels like

How the evening unfolds

The outing is compact and deliberate: participants set out on paddleboards into the calm of the reserve, hold position or drift as the sun sinks, then make a guided return to shore while instructors monitor conditions and safety. Equipment, safety briefings and on-water oversight are included so the group can focus on the light and the water.
