When the sea just won't let us stay at Lido Conchiglie (too many waves, too much wind), we load the kayaks onto the roof rack of our car, and see you at...La Strea!!!

Paddling in a lagoon is a captivating experience: the shallow, sandy seabed creates a comfortable feeling as we enter the water, and the Mediterranean scrub around us embraces and envelops us as we traverse the silent, still waters. After a short stretch of open sea, we come to a small bridge, the perfect size for our kayaks: before us lies Rabbit Island, wild and unspoiled, accessible only by sea... a truly magical atmosphere! Perfect for any time of day.

Route description:

A unique opportunity, designed just for those days when sea conditions at Lido Conchiglie prevent us from venturing out. Instead of stopping, we open the door to something different: a silent, wild lagoon, off the beaten track. By kayak, with a maximum of three people per trip, we explore still, crystal-clear waters among islets covered in Mediterranean scrub, native fauna, and an authentic harbor overlooked by sixteenth-century towers. There's even a small bridge under which to paddle our kayaks, before we glimpse Rabbit Island: wild, untouched, accessible only by sea, it offers us a haven in a place seemingly untouched by time. It's not an everyday occurrence, but when it happens... it's pure magic.


Possibility to do the excursion at any time of the day:


At sunrise - it will be magical and relaxing to stop on the island's beach and admire the scenery at this time of day, in complete silence, without swimmers or umbrellas! Here, we'll take our time enjoying a pasticciotto and coffee, brought directly aboard the kayak!


Daytime - During your stop on the island, you can take a dip, enjoy a refreshing swim, and even go snorkeling to discover life underwater: we'll provide masks, advice, and experience!


At sunset - to accompany our contemplation of nature in the last hours of daylight, an aperitif... one of those simple ones, but one you certainly don't have every day!
