Before going sailing with our kayak, our guide will introduce us to the most basic kayak techniques to make the tour safely.
During the excursion, we will leave from the bay of Pollença towards the north, passing the impressive military airfield where we can contemplate the curious seaplanes maneuvering. We’ll sail with our kayak on crystal waters over Posidonia banks, while skirting the peninsula of Punta Avançada, where it’s located one of the largest and most prestigious country estates, The Fortress, a historic building built in the XVII century to defend the peninsula of Pollença of Berber incursions, which treasures a glorious and colorful history.
After crossing the Punta Avançada, if the sea conditions are good, we’ll sail in deep water and have fun with the the waves. We will end our trip zigzagging between the boats of the Port de Pollença to reach the starting point.
