Kayak route along the impressive cliffs of Lloret de Mar

Kayak route along the impressive cliffs of Lloret de Mar

18.06.2026 Activities in Lloret Sport

If you are a lover of sports, adventure and adrenaline, kayaking in Lloret de Mar is an experience you simply cannot miss. This stunning stretch of coastline on the Costa Brava invites you to explore spectacular landscapes and venture into towering cliffs while enjoying active tourism in Lloret de Mar. Discover this hidden paradise in the heart of the Selva region, in Girona.


Kayaking along the cliffs of Lloret de Mar

The beaches and coves of Lloret de Mar are famous for their beauty, but taking a kayak route along its coastline allows you to discover a much wilder side, full of cliffs, hidden coves and sea caves.

This kayak tour is the perfect plan to discover the area from another perspective. Best of all, in this part of the Costa Brava, the sea is usually calm with few waves, which guarantees easy and peaceful navigation. Furthermore, as it is a light and silent watercraft, it allows you to venture into narrow passages inaccessible to boats, exploring every corner with respect for nature.

The highlight of this adventure lies to the north, at the Can Juncadella cliffs. As there is no coastal path (camí de ronda) by land to reach them, kayaking is the only way to gain access to admire these towering stone walls from the sea, on a journey that also reveals the natural surroundings of Cala Gran and the secluded Cala Morisca.

As you skirt a private estate with very little human intervention, the landscape remains protected and free from urban development. Paddling calmly, it is easy to spot peregrine falcons and cormorants resting on the rocks, while, beneath crystal-clear waters, the seabed is teeming with life. Along the Lloret coastline, it is common to come across typical Mediterranean fish such as damselfish (castañuelas), annular seabream (esparallones) and bastard grunts (roncadores), which find their ideal refuge among the posidonia meadows and the cliff walls.

Routes of hidden coves and caves

Kayak excursions around Lloret de Mar offer ideal options for all types of sports enthusiast, depending on their experience in the water. For beginners looking for an easy and relaxed route, excursions through the southern sector of the municipality are the perfect setting. Setting off in a kayak from the spacious Fenals beach allows you to paddle quietly along the coast towards the east, passing beneath the historic Castell de Sant Joan until reaching the photogenic and rocky Cala Banys. If you choose to head south-west, the route skirts the imposing Punta de Santa Clotilde and navigates around the Es Bot islets, entering the calm waters of the emblematic Sa Boadella beach and the idyllic Santa Cristina beach, two corners sheltered from the wind and ideal for getting started in this sport.

On the other hand, paddlers looking for a medium or expert level crossing will find their ideal excursion on the northern area. Starting the journey from the exit canal of Cala Canyelles towards Tossa de Mar, a more physical and fascinating guided tour of about two hours return awaits them. This route allows you to navigate alongside the Ses Clotes cliffs and Cala Gran, venture with the kayak into the spectacular and dark Cova de les Falsies, negotiate narrow passages between large blocks of rock and reach the secluded Cala Morisca, famous for its ancient legend of smugglers and its hidden tunnels inside the mountain itself.


Practical tips and recommendations to enjoy paddling

To undertake your kayak excursions around Lloret de Mar with total safety, it is essential to prepare properly before taking to the water. The first indispensable step is to check the weather forecast and the state of the sea, avoiding heading out if there are gusts of wind or strong waves. Likewise, the best time to navigate is usually first thing in the morning, when the sea is completely calm and the sun is less intense. As this is an outdoor activity exposed to the elements, do not forget to apply plenty of protective sun cream, wear a cap, sunglasses with a retaining strap, and sufficient water to maintain good hydration throughout the journey. It is also highly recommended to equip yourself with water shoes for the rocky sections, to obligatorily wear a life jacket and to protect your belongings inside a dry bag.

When it comes to organising the activity, the Lloret coastline boasts excellent professional centres and academies for kayaking where you can get equipped and receive advice from local guides who know every corner of the coast. In the northern sector, Kayak Adventure Lloret stands out; located right in Cala Canyelles and managed by Narcís Fors, it is an ideal option offering technical paddling courses and guided outings perfect for discovering the secrets of the northern cliffs. If you prefer to explore the southern area, at Fenals beach you will find specialised centres such as Kayak Fenals or Lemon Kayak, fantastic spaces both for independent equipment hire and for booking introductory excursions with total peace of mind.
