Tips if you are going to do Kayaking in Portugal

When you first come to Portugal, you probably want to see every corner, but what about the wonders around the rivers and seas? Do you want to explore them? Kayaking has become the most popular activity for a family day out and is an ideal activity to be enjoyed in Portugal. It's a peaceful sport for people of all ages, where everyone in the family may paddle and progress together. So, if you want to spend a memorable day with your family enjoying Portugal, hop in a kayak and explore the Atlantic coast in a new way.
1. Where to go kayaking in Portugal?

Portugal is renowned for being one of the most tranquil seaside destinations, ensuring a safe kayaking experience throughout its coastline. Lisbon is one of the best places to do this activity since the tranquilly of its waters and the numerous routes that emerge from this area will allow you to have a one-of-a-kind and fantastic experience tailored to your preferences. This unique excursion includes sightseeing in the area, including visits to fortifications such as San Bruno and Giribita. Ponta do Piedade in Lagos is also a popular starting point for a kayaking trip across the Algarve, where you may explore the caves. You can also paddle to the famed Benagil Cave in this location, which offers the best views of the Portuguese coast. Finally, Sesimbra is an excellent location for this activity, especially the Arrábida Park, where you may cool yourself in the area's crystal blue waters.
2. What kind of kayak can you use for this adventure?

In Portugal, you can spend a pleasant day out in one of these varieties of kayaks. The hard kayak, which is composed of polyethylene, polyester, and plastic, is the most frequent boat used on any of the routes in Portugal. It is a comfortable and safe boat. You will have the option of selecting between several sizes based on your preferences. The folding kayak is built of wood and aluminium and is waterproof, ensuring your safety on any of the routes.If you want to jump into the same kayak with more family members, you may do so with the modular kayaks that hold up to three people. Finally, the inflatable kayak is a less safe choice. While it is easy to handle and navigate, it does not give enough stability for a voyage on rougher waters.
3. What are the requirements for kayaking?

Although kayaking is a simple sport to learn, some equipment must be used to have a completely safe experience. The most important thing is to have the proper kayaking boat, and paddles, of which the main one is required, and a spare is recommended. If you fall into the water, you'll also need a life jacket to make swimming easier. In addition, a bathing suit, a bilge pump, and a sponge to empty the kayak of water are required. Don't worry if you don't have this equipment; the firm you contact for the service will usually provide it. All you have to do is dress comfortably and bring a swimsuit in case you want to cool off during the journey.
4. Do I require a license to do this experience?

Kayaking is a water sport that everyone can enjoy and does not require any kind of licence. Kayaking in sea waters does not require a navigation licence which means anyone can rent one and go on an adventure in Portugal's waterways. Additionally, while there is no minimum age requirement to participate in this sport, it is recommended that children under the age of 12 be accompanied by an adult.
5. What is the duration of a kayaking tour in Portugal?

The duration of your kayaking adventure is determined by the route you choose. If you rent this boat on your own and want to explore the Portuguese coast on your own, you can do so for 1 hour to half a day, depending on your interests. If, on the other hand, you want to learn more about the caverns and beaches found along the route, you may do so with a guided tour led by a specialised guide that lasts anywhere from 30 minutes to 4 hours.
When is the best time in Portugal to rent a kayak?

As it is a water sport, the ideal time to explore Portugal in a kayak is during the summer months. Enjoy the ideal weather to take a refreshing dip in the beaches of Portugal and indulge in some tourism. Soak up the scenic beauty of the Portuguese coast on your trip!
