“It was a little confusing to know where we were supposed to meet for the kayak. There were several other kayak rental places there. The text message said to look for the truck with the business name on it and there wasn’t one we had to ask a couple of guys who the rental place was because they were using a U-Haul truck. Once we got everything figured out and met up with them, everything went so smoothly. They talked us through everything and one of the guys even paddled up a few times just to check on everybody to see if we were all OK while we were out…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 215 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $40

Review of Haleiwa River Paddle Board Rental with Blue Planet Adventure Co., including turtles, equipment, price, route tips, and practical details.

“I reserved this experience because it was advertised as a GROUP EVENT. My nephew was alone and wanted to SUP with others. When we arrived he was given a Board and pushed into the river (which is horribly smelly and dirty) by himself. When I stated that I paid for a GROUP EXPERIENCE the young man said NOPE. I could have saved the $35 and sent him to POKAI’I BAY with my SUP Board for free. I WAS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED with this experience.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 206 reviews · 2 hours · from $29

Paddle from Benagil Beach to famous caves and Marinha Beach on a guided two-hour kayak outing along Portugal’s Algarve coast.

“Excellent Tour!! Jose was our guide and he was fantastic. We had a small group of only three couples which was great. Of course all three couples spoke three different languages. But jose seamlessly was able to change between Spanish, French and English without difficulty. Do yourself a favour and book the early morning time slot. The ocean is calmer and there are fewer people and larger boats on the water. The smaller power boats that go into Benagil cave get very close to you while you are waiting outside to make your way into the cave. It’s was a little unsettling but the operators of the boats are quite…”

13.Kayak Rental

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 109 reviews · 2 hours · from $23

Rent a kayak in Can Pastilla for two hours, paddle to Sa Galera, swim and snorkel, and enjoy Palma views for $23.

“Der Kajakverleih ist wirklich top! Die Mitarbeiterin war super freundlich und alles hat absolut reibungslos funktioniert. Die Kajaks sind in sehr gutem Zustand und machen einen hochwertigen Eindruck. Die Umgebung selbst bietet eher weniger Abwechslung – man paddelt hauptsächlich auf dem offenen Meer. Für meinen Geschmack wären Buchten, Klippen oder andere besondere Spots noch schöner gewesen, um mehr Highlights beim Ausflug zu haben. Alles in allem: Ein toller Verleih mit top Service und Qualität – einzig die Location könnte etwas attraktiver sein, wenn man spannende Ziele ansteuern möchte.”
