About this tour
Paddle into Cerro Gordo Natural Park from La Herradura Beach on a 2.5-hour kayak and snorkel run along Spain's dramatic cliff-lined coast. You'll navigate sea caves, spot mountain goats threading the escarpments, and drop beneath the surface to explore the marine life thriving in protected waters. Small group sizes mean proper attention and space to actually enjoy the limestone geology and underwater ecosystems that make this stretch of Andalusian coastline distinctive.

What to expect
You'll meet at La Herradura Beach's water sports area and receive a safety briefing before gearing up with life jacket, snorkel equipment, and fins. The paddle into the natural park takes you past towering sea cliffs where you'll keep watch for local goats picking their way across the rock face. You'll kayak into Cueva de la Paloma, exploring the cave system from water level, then anchor in clear zones to snorkel. The underwater visibility reveals the park's marine biodiversity. Throughout, guides maintain radio contact with shore. The route has minimal technical difficulty but requires basic swimming comfort and kayak handling.
