Kayaking the Coast of Formentera

The coast of Formentera is a spectacular place to explore, especially in a kayak, as it is adorned in lovely coves, beaches, turquoise waters and hidden caves that can only be accessed by boat. After your guide provides some basic instruction in safe kayaking, you will paddle toward the pristine beach of Cala en Baster on the northeast side of the island. Along the way, take in the scenic sights of the rugged coast – diverse flora and fauna, secluded caves, soaring cliffs and the ancient Punta Prima lookout tower. One of Formentera's four nearly identical defensive towers, Punta Prima was built in 1762 to protect the island from Barbary pirate attacks. You can also stop to swim and snorkel if you wish, keeping an eye out for the abundance of marine life under the sea.
