HALF-DAY (3H)/FULL-DAY(8H) PADDLE GETAWAY:

 

PADDLE & NATURE

SPORT - RELAXATION - WELL-BEING - COASTLINE - UNUSUAL PICNIC - CREEKS & BEACHES - ECOLOGY

The practice of paddle is quite simple and is easy for anyone. We start the session with a quick demonstration of the directions of use & technical skills to know. The ride comes with geographical & geological explanations, cultural anecdotes, a quick instruction about environment awareness about & then through the discovery of the flora and fauna of the natural sites previously chosen.

Paddle outings are convivial moments to share with family & friends. It is also an opportunity to relax, to slow down, to contemplate Nature, to reconnect with a magnificent natural element: our dear and beloved Mediterranean Sea.


Paddle & Nature packages offer you the possibility of a minimum of 3 hours (morning or afternoon) or a long day to fully enjoy Stand Up Paddle activity, and to be able to stop in calm and quiet in a wide panel of exceptional natural sites. The opportunity to share a traditional high quality picnic in a haven of peace, a cove isolated from all the noises of the cities.


The proceeding of Paddle Getaways depend on the starting point chosen. Around every major city of the French Riviera (Nice, Cannes, Antibes, Menton, Grasse) there are plenty of spots that our team would be glad to recommend. For this, we propose adapted itineraries to the groups whether your desires: sporty, relaxing, family, leisure or committed for the protection of Nature.


Prices include: Guiding service, Paddles (Individual or for 6 people), transport of material, protection and security equipment, traditional picnic and seasonal fruits included.

Option 1: A different perception of French Riviera

Nothing better than a wild escape exploring the best coastal itineraries where we will follow the jagged shoreline & its caves, creeks & paradisiacal beaches around the most famous capes of the French Riviera where we will see from a certain distance the most sumptuous villas. A golden opportunity to make stops taking a dip in unaccessible spots where you will enjoy the turquoise blue colors of the sea, reminiscence of the most beautiful lagoons and the most beautiful sights of Corsica & Sardinia.

Option 2 : Lakes, Rivers & Waterfalls in the Countryside

We have many tailor-made itineraries in the lakes & rivers of our hinterland. The perfect opportunity to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of the city and reconnect with the wilderness in the heart of the lush forest where tumultuous rivers form plenty of waterfalls. This option is popular during the heat of summer to reach the freshness and calm of our most beautiful canyons and valleys.


Option 3: Escape into the turquoise islands

A unique day trip by paddle to explore the most beautiful islands and inlets of the French Riviera, where you will find the most turquoise waters and landscapes resembling curiously some of those Caribbean islands. Possibility to plan the visit of many historical sites (Royal Prison, Citadel, Museum of the Sea, Protected Natural Park, Monastery) and to enjoy a tasting of excellent wines and local products directly in the vineyards or in the shelter of the pine tree forest during the heat of summer.
