Guided Sea Kayak Route Along the Llanes Coast from Celorio

You set off by kayak from Celorio, 5 km from Llanes, and paddle with a guide along the coast of the council area: coves, caves and islets you cannot see from land. Before you get in the water there is a talk on basic technique. It does not run every day: it depends on the sea, so get in touch before fixing a date.

What the route is like

It is run by NaturAsturias. It is two to three hours of guided sea kayaking along the cliffs and unspoilt beaches of Llanes, passing caves, coves and islands. The company does not publish a fixed itinerary; ask about the route when you book. Before setting off there is a short talk on basic paddling technique, and throughout the route you are accompanied by qualified guides.

No previous experience is needed and the minimum age is 4, so it works as a family activity. You can choose a single (K1) or double (K2) kayak.

Prices and what is included

• Double kayak (K2): €25 per person.
• Single kayak (K1): €30 per person.

Includes the sea kayak, double-bladed paddle, life jacket, qualified guide, and public liability and accident insurance. You bring swimwear, flip-flops, a towel and sun protection. You will get wet: leave your phone in a dry bag or in the car.

Booking, weather and cancellation

Before booking, NaturAsturias asks you to contact them to choose a date, because the activity does not run every day owing to the variability of the sea. The booking is confirmed with a 25% deposit by bank transfer or by card on the website's payment terminal, and the rest is paid on the day of the trip. The meeting point is in Celorio; you need to arrive 15 minutes before the start.

If the weather means moving the time, it is agreed with you, and if it is cancelled because of the weather, what you paid is refunded. If you cancel at least 48 hours ahead, you get the amount back minus 25% for administration costs; inside that period there is no refund. Contact: 646 862 699 or [email protected]. The website gives no fixed season or departure times.

What to combine

The same company gives surf lessons at Palombina, in Celorio, and on other beaches in the council area. To see the coast from above after the kayak, try the San Pedro walk, in the town, or the Pría blowholes if there is a heavy swell, on the day the kayak does not go out.
