Jávea, a jewel of the Mediterranean, is the perfect destination for lovers of water activities.
In this paradisiacal corner, kayaking and paddle surfing have become two of the most popular experiences for locals and tourists alike.
If you are planning your next adventure, kayaking and paddle surfing experiences will be a great option.
We offer flexible rental options for you to enjoy Jávea at your own pace, whether cutting through the waves in a kayak or gliding smoothly on a paddle surfboard.
In this blog, you'll find everything you need to know to explore the sea at your own pace.
Kayaking is a small and narrow vessel, designed to be propelled by one or two people using a double-bladed paddle.
The kayaker sits in a low position with legs stretched forward, navigating through the waters with coordinated paddle movements.
This activity not only offers a unique experience to explore the coasts and coves of Jávea but also provides excellent cardiovascular exercise and muscle strengthening.
.
SUP, or Stand Up Paddle Surfing, is a water activity where the participant stands on a large board and uses a single-bladed paddle to move around. Paddle surfing combines balance, strength, and endurance, resulting in a complete workout while enjoying the beauty of the seascape.
Although both kayaking and SUP allow you to explore and enjoy the water, there are key differences between these activities.
In kayaking, you sit and use a double-bladed paddle, while in SUP you stand on the board and use a single-bladed paddle.
SUP offers a unique perspective and a closer connection with the water, as you are standing and can look directly down. On the other hand, kayaking can be faster and more efficient for long distances.
