Kayak Tour Puerto Banús Marbella: Paddle Coastline with Guide

Paddle four beaches and reach the harbor mouth in two hours

A guided kayak tour in Puerto Banús Marbella where you paddle the Mediterranean coastline for 2 hours, starting from Ventura del Mar beach and crossing El Rodeito, Playas del Duque and La Siesta before reaching the harbor entrance. Groups stay under 20 people, and the guide, a kayaking professional, teaches paddling skills through games and drills. Children from age 2 are welcome. Those under 7 ride free, and ages 8–12 get reduced rates. The tour includes kayak, safety gear and a full photo report.

The experience

You start at Ventura del Mar beach, where the guide fits you with a kayak and safety equipment, then leads the group into the water. The route crosses four named beaches (El Rodeito, Playas del Duque, La Siesta) paddling past the villas and yachts that line the Marbella shore. The guide introduces paddling games and drills as you move, so even beginners and children pick up technique without it feeling like instruction. The breakwaters mark the way, and by the end of the 2 hours you've reached the mouth of Puerto Banús harbor itself.

Timing matters here: the later departures catch the sun descending toward the water, which turns the sky gold and gives you the light for photos. The group stays under 20 people, and families are paired together or with others close in age, so the rhythm doesn't splinter. A professional guide speaks English, Spanish or French, so you follow the commentary in your own language. The kayak and all safety gear come with the tour, and you get a full photo report afterward: the operator shoots the day and sends the images on.

Children under 7 ride free, and ages 8 to 12 get reduced rates, which is why families book this one. Kids from age 2 are welcome, and if you have infants or toddlers, they can come in a pram or stroller. You don't paddle with them. Public transport stops are nearby if you're not driving to Ventura del Mar beach.
