About this tour

Paddle deeper into Javea's Mediterranean coastline than standard kayak trips allow, reaching the dramatic Cabo de San Antonio cave system and its protected marine reserve. Over three and a half hours, you'll navigate past hidden coves, jump from cliff faces at Cala Tango, and snorkel above kelp gardens while your guide explains local ecology and seafaring history. This isn't a gentle paddle—it's a proper coastal exploration combining physical challenge with natural discovery.

Highlights

  • Kayak into Cabo de San Antonio's towering sea cave
  • Cliff jump at Cala Tango into turquoise water
  • Snorkel the protected Cabo de San Antonio Marine Reserve
  • Navigate coastline rarely paddled by casual tourists
  • Learn Mediterranean ecosystem from local guide
  • Professional photos included throughout

What to expect

Expect a physically demanding paddle requiring solid fitness and swimming ability. You'll spend most of the 3.5 hours on the water, moving steadily along the rocky coastline with stops for snorkelling and the optional cliff jump. The cave itself is striking—high rock walls and clear shallows—but the real payoff is the sense of accessing somewhere most visitors miss. Your guide will point out fish, seabirds, and geological features; bring curiosity. Weather dependent, water temps run cool even in summer.
