Sea kayaking on Elba combines the joy of discovery and exploration with relaxing and healthy physical activity.
Sliding along the surface of the water in a kayak: can you imagine a better way of discovering the many hidden surprises off the north-western coast of Elba?
Kayaking relaxes the mind and strengthens the muscles. There are those who take up this sport to meditate in solitude and those who look at it as a proper sport. Whatever your motivation, nothing in the world can provide the close and personal contact with nature that these ancient vessels can.
Excursions are available on Elba with the assistance of qualified instructors, who will help you to perfect navigation and rowing techniques hand in hand with nature, in one of the most beautiful stretches of coastlines in the Tuscan Archipelago. If you have not brought your own kayak, there is no problem: you can hire one on the beach at Sant’Andrea for a few Euros.
TO THE EAST OF CAPO SANT’ANDREA. Going eastwards towards Marciana Marina, a coastline of flowing rocks and minute little beaches only reachable from the sea will lead you to the little bay of the “Caletta”, where you will find a beautiful gravel beach ideal for a rest and a long and relaxing swim. The bolder of you may want to carry on for another four miles towards the beach at Fenicia, practically on the docks at Marciana Marina.
TO THE WEST OF CAPO SANT’ANDREA. Along the coastline leading to the lighthouse at Punta Polveraia, three miles west of Capo Sant’Andrea, is one of the most beautiful parts of the island. You will be able to row surrounded by a sea with glaring reflections, in direction contact with completely unspoiled nature and a view out to sea, where Corsica is visible on clear days.
