# Independent Kayaking from the Playa Sur, next to Peñíscola Port What to do en Peñíscola · Peñíscola Fuente: https://www.geocalia.com/en/spain/valencian-community/peniscola/things-to-do/kayak-from-the-port · Revisado: 2026-11-13 - Duración: 1 h - Temporada: In good weather; book earlier in summer - Para quién: No experience; under-16s with an adult Single or double kayak hire by the hour on the Playa Sur, with life jacket and basic briefing · no experience needed · from age 16 alone. A kayak is the cheapest and quietest way to see the rock from the water. On the Playa Sur, at the foot of the port, Nautic Riders hires out kayaks by the hour so you can paddle at your own pace along the Peñíscola coast. Single or double kayak There are single and double kayaks. The double is the one to choose if you are going with a child or with someone who has never paddled: one sets the rhythm and the other helps. The hire includes the kayak, paddle, life jacket and some basic instructions before setting off; no experience is needed. When booking online you choose one or two hours, and the company also mentions full-day hire. It does not publish the kayak price on its website: ask by WhatsApp on 663 299 778. Where to paddle The company speaks of the Peñíscola coast, its clear waters and its coves, and asks you to stay in the areas it points out when you set off. The Playa Sur, sheltered by a breakwater, has the calmest water in the town, and from it the rock is a few minutes' paddle away. Ask before setting out whether you can go round it and how long to allow. Ages and documents From age 16 you can hire without an adult; younger people go accompanied. Bring an ID card, NIE or passport, and expect that they may ask for a deposit which is returned at the end. What to combine it with After the water, the Playa Sur has showers, lifeguards and a pirate ship among the play equipment for little ones. If someone in the group would rather sit down and stay dry, the tour boat makes the trip round the rock in half an hour from the same port. And if you want more independence and more distance, the same company hires out the licence-free boat.
