Activity description
Enjoy a guided kayak excursion in La Herradura (Granada) and discover the marine fauna of the Maro-Cerro Gordo Cliffs Natural Park while snorkelling!
Between the towns of Almuñécar (Granada) and Nerja (Málaga), you will find La Herradura, a 2 kilometres long paradisiacal beach hidden between the Cerro Gordo and Punta de la Mona cliffs, 1 hour from the centre of Granada. One of the most beautiful and special beaches in Granada and one of the best places to practice water sports and activities in Andalusia. Do you want to know better the coast of La Herradura?
The instructors of Activ8You propose you a guided kayak tour in La Herradura during which you will enjoy the beautiful beaches, caves and impressive cliffs, some of them up to 75 metres high, of the Natural Park (marine and terrestrial) Acantilados de Maro-Cerro Gordo. The kayak will allow you to access beaches and coves that are difficult to reach on foot and, best of all, during the excursion you can also snorkel to discover the rich marine fauna of the region with species such as sponges, corals, anemones and crustaceans. Your guide will explain the importance of the fauna and flora of La Herradura as well as the basics of snorkelling if you are a first time snorkeller. This is why this activity is perfect for both inexperienced snorkellers and families.
