Kayak or Paddleboard to the Devil's Saddle

About this experience

There is no pier here. After booking you send Sea Rent a message on WhatsApp message with your location, and the kayak or board arrives ready to use, with nothing to inflate. Sea Rent does not transport people, so you make your own way to the coast. One guest staying in the centre took a 20-minute bus to the harbor and walked 4 minutes from the stop.

You choose a rigid or inflatable kayak for 2 or 3 people, by agreement, or a SUP; the gulf's weather decides which works on the day. The listing marks it as suitable for beginners. Its suggested route covers about 7 km: a short pass along Poetto, a stop at the Piscine di Gianfranco, then the Grotta dei Colombi and Cala Fighera, Capo Sant'Elia with the Grotta del Cavallino and the lighthouse, and Calamosca, the one place where you may land, for a swim, a snorkel, the bar and the toilets. You come back past the rocks called Coccodrillo and Fungo.

On the water: 4 hours at your own pace, no guide. Included: the equipment, delivered and collected. Not included: a guide, though Sea Rent answers questions and gives advice the whole time. The rules are yours to keep: stay the required distance from the shore and the rocks, mind divers and swimmers, and respect the bathing bans. Test the kayak in shallow water first and set off only when you feel ready, as the listing asks.

What guests say

★★★★★

Luca was very nice! Fun activity for not a lot of money. Rented a kayak for the two of us. It was ready on time at the agreed-on location. We were staying in the city center and took the bus (20 min) to the harbor. It's a 4-minute walk from the bus stop. While kayaking, we had some questions, and Luca even came out to meet us on the water. [...] Highly recommended to book here!

We had rented 2 kayaks and went on a super nice trip along the coast! We also had a wonderful time snorkeling [...] The owner, Luca, was very helpful and friendly. We recommend his company!

A wonderful experience! It was the first time we had this experience, and despite that, it is very doable even with two small children aged 5 and 6. The guy who welcomed us was super kind and helpful

It was great; we were able to see beautiful places. Our guide, Luca, was super responsive and answered all our questions!

Tips before you book

  • Message your location right after booking. Delivery runs on WhatsApp, and an exact spot saves time on the day.
  • Keep your phone with you. Sea Rent stays in touch on the water, and one guest had Luca paddle out to warn of a change in the wind.
  • Pack a mask and a dry bag. Calamosca is the place to land and snorkel.
  • Land only at Calamosca. The listing says it is the one permitted landing on the route.
  • Curious about what you are paddling past? Our Devil's Saddle by boat guide tells the legend and the history.
