A Detailed Look at the Kayak Experience in Costa Calma
Imagine starting your day with the gentle sound of waves and the warm sun on your face as you glide across crystal-clear waters—this is what awaits you with this kayak rental near Costa Calma. The activity is designed to be straightforward, making it an ideal choice whether you’re a first-timer or someone with some paddling experience. The rental itself costs $23 per person, which covers an hour of paddling, safety gear, and a quick orientation to ensure everyone feels comfortable.
Location matters, and the Shaka Center, right beside the All Sun Hotel, makes for a wonderfully convenient starting point. Its beachfront setting means you’re immediately immersed in the scenic beauty of Fuerteventura’s coast. The proximity to the water allows you to slip into your kayak promptly, without fussing over transport or logistics. This ease of access is a definite plus, especially if you’re traveling light or want to maximize your time on the water.
The quality of the kayaks is noteworthy. Many visitors mention the well-maintained equipment, which is critical for both safety and comfort. The team provides a brief but essential introduction to kayaking, covering safety regulations and basic paddling techniques, so even total beginners can feel confident. The optional life jackets add peace of mind, especially when paddling with children or in slightly choppy conditions.
Once you’re on the water, the experience is largely up to you. Some prefer to enjoy the tranquility of gentle paddling along the coast, soaking in the sun, and taking in the views of Costa Calma’s golden beaches and horizon. Others might find themselves a little more adventurous if the bay is more lively, with some small waves adding a bit of challenge. Crina’s review captures this well: “The experience is what it’s advertised, you go there, receive a kayak and some instructions if needed, and come back after an hour. A big plus was that we could leave our phones and car keys with them,” highlighting the simplicity and trustworthiness of the service.
The setting itself is spectacular. The bay’s calm waters are ideal for all ages and skill levels, making this activity suitable for families seeking active fun or solo travelers looking to enjoy some peaceful paddling. The golden shoreline provides a beautiful backdrop for photos, and early or late in the day, the light makes for especially memorable views.
Pricing and duration also add to its appeal. For $23, you get an hour on the water—the perfect length for a quick escape without feeling rushed. Many find this to be excellent value, especially considering the convenience and quality service. If you wish, you can return and rent again on another day, making it easy to fit into longer stays or multiple visits.
A few potential drawbacks? If you’re after a guided tour with commentary about the local sights or wildlife, this isn’t the activity for you. It’s more about independent paddling, which is both a strength and a limitation depending on your preferences. Also, since the activity is weather-dependent, very windy or stormy days might mean cancellations or less enjoyable conditions.
