Kayak rental in Agay: paddle among the red rocks of the Estérel

 

What to expect from this activity:

A kayak trip in the heart of the Estérel massif and its red rocks, heading towards the magnificent calanques of Agay.

Unspoiled natural landscapes, with the (delightful) idea of choosing a cove for a picnic break, sunbathing, or snorkeling.

 

If you opt for a half-day rental, here is a glimpse of what you can see:

La Baumette beach, with its long strip of fine sand, is located at the end of the magnificent Agay bay, from where you will set off to gradually follow the coastline as it changes: the surroundings become more mineral, with the red rocks of the Estérel and a succession of small, discreet coves on the coast towards Le Trayas (including the Calanques des Anglais, for example).

As you paddle, you can enjoy open views of the bay, then, after a few strokes and a little effort, you will arrive at the Île des Vieilles and its wild cove, a favorite spot for boaters in summer, where you will find the typical contrast of the area: turquoise water and red rocks, perfect for a contemplative break (bring your masks and snorkels, as these islets are home to many fish).

 

1-hour rental, ideal for families:

If you opt for a 1-hour rental, take the time to explore a real lagoon near the beach! The sea is crystal clear in places, ideal for a dip.

Easy to organize, and without getting tired. You alternate a few paddle strokes along the bay, protected from the swell, and splash around, marveling at the turquoise color. As a bonus, you get a view of the Rastel d'Agay (forest massif) in front of you.

It's an accessible, simple, and joyful activity that creates beautiful memories!

A word from the team”:

Every year, we rent kayaks with the children to explore the magnificent Baumette Bay and its lagoon. It feels like being in the Caribbean. The children love it because in some places they can see the bottom of the water, which is very reassuring for them. We love this place, especially early in the morning or late in the afternoon at sunset.

Superbe rando

Commenté le 04/10/2025

Rando vraiment sympa, sans pression. Le point de l'aller retour par rapport au point de reference est largement faisable. Nous avions pris 3 heures 4 aurait été top pour profiter pleinement des criques et des baignades et du pique nique. Le decompte du temps se fait au depart du bord de plage d'oú 3 heures pleines de canoé.

Une superbe journée kayak en famille à un prix très raisonnable ! Les kayaks sont confortables, le matériel est impeccable, les bidons sont très pratiques pour mettre le pique-nique et les serviettes pour les excursions à la journée. A refaire!
