    Excellent kayaking experience. Our instructor, Edu, was very attentive. He arrived with all the necessary equipment, including the kayaks and wetsuits, which were essential because the water was still quite cold during Easter week. The four-hour activity flew by, from the preparation and the outward kayak trip to the visit to a cave and the return journey. Highly recommended, and Edu deserves top marks.
