Moonlit Descent on the Xúquer: Full‑moon RiverSUP in Alicante.
Paddle under a full moon as you descend the río Xúquer on a stand‑up paddleboard — an intimate, slightly surreal evening that blends the quiet of river travel with a touch of adrenaline.

The outing balances relaxed paddling with moments of playful adrenaline as the group navigates the river together, followed by the conviviality of a riverside meal if you choose to stay on shore.
