The Hawaiian pirogue is a traditional Polynesian boat consisting of an outrigger connected to the hull by two arms. It has 6 places and to pilot it, you need to paddle as a team and have good coordination skills. This Hawaiian pirogue discovery in Saint-Gilles Les Bains is therefore a unique opportunity to share a convivial moment with your loved ones while enjoying the coastline of Réunion Island in a different way.
Open to all, this Hawaiian pirogue activity in Saint-Gilles will be supervised by an experienced professional who will introduce you to the sport. He'll explain the different techniques you need to know to handle the pirogue, depending on your position on the boat. Once you're ready, you can take the plunge and enjoy around 1.5 hrs with your group on the Hawaiian pirogue!
This activity is also a chance to navigate the waters of the Indian Ocean, where aquatic fauna thrives. From June to the end of October, it is whale season and a pirogue trip is a great opportunity to observe these cetaceans in a respectful manner. Outside whale season, you may be lucky enough to spot dolphins or turtles.
After your Hawaiian pirogue experience in the bay of Saint-Gilles, you'll debrief your activity with the instructor and the group on a superb panoramic terrace.
