Wonderful kayaking trip along the Sete coast, with a great guide who was very good at looking after the group. We were lucky that the sea was calm and clear.

Really enjoyable morning despite a little rough sea just added to the enjoyment of the trip. Definitely on the list for a return

Unique way to see the harbor at Sete and our guide Lea was fantastic! No experience necessary but was definitely a workout.

This was a lovely experience! We found the place ok, typed the lighthouse into our map and came out by the right cafe, the right stairs, etc. The Amar Cafe. There are toilets there, so if you need a last minute, you can go. I was worried if there wasn’t going to be one, but you can ask the cafe staff and they’ll tell you where to go.

We turned up at the place 30 minutes before the experience, and I’m so glad we did! It takes a while to get the safety briefing, buoyancy aids, waterproof boxes, water bottle filling, toilets, meeting your guide, and lots more done before your experience!

They first split you into two groups, done by language. We were in the English group with the tour guide from Edinburgh! There was another group who were French, with a French guide.

There was about 15ish people in each group, so we had 7 double kayaks and 1 single kayak on the water, in our group. Plus the guide in his kayak.

We set off at about 2:30pm, after safety briefing etc. and it was a lovely day! It was VERY BERY hot when we went, I burned the tops of my legs and I don’t normally burn there, so bring SRONG STRONG sun cream. Keep reapplying too. We stopped once at a cave, you were able to get out of your kayak and swim, for a bit, while others got to go in a cave. The cave is quite small, but it takes you a while to get in and out because you go forward on the way in, but you have to reverse back out. Take your camera really cool in there. Nice and cold, too.

A few other stops and you get back to where you started, some beaches that you might stop at, we didn’t do the popular ones because they were busy already!

We did however stop at a beach that was pretty much empty, nearer the jetty, in the harbour, we all got out of the kayaks here and stopped to have a swim, take photos of the lovely view of the sea, then got back in again and kayaked across the harbour back to the jetty.

Overall, a lovely experience, thank you so much!
