Beachside Piracy and Submerged Gardens: Kayaking the Secret Coves of El Pajar.
Embark on a daylong kayaking excursion off El Pajar’s southern shore: double kayaks thread between sheltered coves, parties land on beaches to play paddle and frisbee, and swimmers don masks to inspect the underwater life. The outing is set up as a relaxed, discovery‑style day with stops at multiple calas and an on‑shore visit to an archaeological site.
Highlights
Outing Highlights
Sheltered southern coves
The paddling runs primarily along the island’s south coast in calm water, using the protection of the bay to move between a sequence of small coves and beaches ideal for beach landings and short explorations.
Snorkel, beach games and relaxed paddling
The day mixes paddling with beachtime: guests play paddle and frisbee onshore, snorkel to view the seabed, and otherwise enjoy a relaxed rhythm of short sea legs and seaside breaks.
A little archaeology and local wildlife
Beyond marine life visible while snorkelling, the trip includes a stop at an archaeological site and opportunities to see and even feed local lizards while ashore.

Everything is provided by the operator so the emphasis is on easygoing discovery — salt, sun and swims rather than technical instruction.
