The coast around Castiglioncello is best understood close to the water. A kayak or a paddleboard takes you along the rocks, into the small bays and past the places where the road turns inland and the sea disappears.
Kayak and paddleboard
We arrange kayaks and paddleboards with a local operator, on flexible dates. The equipment, the meeting point and the route are confirmed for the day, according to the sea and the wind.
You can go out for an hour or for a longer coastal session. Tell us your experience and whether you want a guide; the operator will match the outing to the group.
Safety and conditions
The sea decides. If the wind or the swell is wrong, the outing moves or waits. Tell the operator if you cannot swim confidently, and wear the buoyancy aid provided. Children go with an adult and within the operator's rules.
Bring water, sun protection and shoes that can get wet. Leave valuables at the villa; there is no reason to take them onto the water.
Around the coast
For the water below the surface, see snorkelling. For a longer outing with a skipper, see boat excursions. The private cove guide explains the two accesses to the sea at the villa.
