Ponta de São Lourenço Kayaking Tour

Very well organised activity. They take you by speedboat to a cove where you can kayak and explore the coves and snorkel while looking at the cliffs of Punta San Lorenzo. Joao and Guido, the guides, are fantastic. Then you go back by speedboat and they explain the area to you. Totally recommended. The activity lasts 4 hours from start to finish. The only bad thing is that to get back to the car you have to go up a steep hill, but that's what Madeira is like.

Description

Join us to enjoy the beautiful landscapes of Punta de São Lourenço on this kayaking tour and have a blast paddling around the crystal clear waters of the coast of Madeira.

Ponta de São Lourenço Kayaking Tour

At the selected time, we'll meet at Quinta do Lorde Marina in Caniçal. There, we'll board a speedboat that'll take us to the Punta de São Lourenço Natural Reserve.

When we arrive at our destination, we'll swap the speedboat for a kayak and start enjoying the Madeira coastline while paddling through the crystal clear waters. We'll have a blast! During the kayak tour, we'll admire the imposing cliffs of Ponta de São Lourenço and witness the power of the Atlantic Ocean crashing against the rocks.

Next, we'll head to some of the hidden coves in this part of the island, many of which are only accessible from the sea! To round off this kayaking experience, we'll make different stops so that you can admire the breathtaking coastline beauty from an incredible angle.

Lastly, we'll return to the boat and take you back to the starting point in Caniçal, ending the tour after two hours.

Actividad muy bien organizada. Te llevan en lancha rápida a una cala donde coges kayak y recorres calas y haces snorkel viendo los acantilados de punta san Lorenzo. Joao y Guido, los guías, fantásticos. Luego vuelves en lancha rápida y te explican la zona. Totalmente recomendable. La actividad desde que empiezas hasta que terminas dura 4 horas. Lo único malo que para volver al coche toca subir una buena cuesta pero es lo que tiene Madeira. Translate this opinion into English.

El viaje en kayak ha sido una experiencia inolvidable. También hicimos un rato de snorkel. Un personal muy atento y amable especialmente agradecemos a Bruno su generosidad y simpatía y el trato con las niñas. Los paisajes que pudimos contemplar realizando esta actividad fueron espectaculares, además tuvimos la suerte de ver de cerca un león marino que nos dijeron que rara vez se ve. Las explicaciones de los guías fueron muy claras y útiles. Repetiría esta experiencia sin duda alguna. Translate this opinion into English.

The kayaking trip was an unforgettable experience. We also did some snorkelling. The staff was very attentive and friendly. We would especially like to thank Bruno for his generosity and kindness and for his treatment of the girls. The landscapes we were able to see while doing this activity were spectacular, and we were also lucky enough to see a sea lion up close, which we were told is rarely seen. The guides' explanations were very clear and helpful. I would repeat this experience without a doubt. Opinion translated. Show original.

Una forma espectacular de visitar esta parte de la isla con numerosas paradas en todos los rincones posibles. Tanto los conductores de las lanchas como los guías fueron muy amables y nos hicieron todas las explicaciones en inglés y en español, además de estar pendientes en todo momento de que las condiciones meteorológicas fueran idóneas. El tiempo de la actividad es el ideal para no cansarte de remar, dejando un tiempo para hacer snorkel (ellos te proporcionan todo el material) Translate this opinion into English.

A spectacular way to visit this part of the island with numerous stops at every possible corner. Both the boat drivers and the guides were very friendly and gave us all the explanations in English and Spanish, as well as being attentive at all times to ensure that the weather conditions were ideal. The duration of the activity is ideal so that you don't get tired of rowing, leaving time for snorkelling (they provide all the equipment). Opinion translated. Show original.
