Kayak, paddle, life jacket and dry bag come with a certified guide; closed shoes are compulsory, water and sun protection are yours to bring. 4.54 from 116 reviews at €60 per person. ## Overview The half-day guided tour is a unique experience. After putting the kayaks in the water and leaving the port of l'Estaque, we will follow the beautiful coast of the Parc Marin de la Côte Bleue then its small coves and creeks before stopping at a small beach that is difficult to access by land for a break with swimming in transparent water. The return is a little further offshore to enjoy a panoramic view of the Côte Bleue and the bay of Marseille. ## Before you book - Meeting point: By bus, - 7 start times: between 09:30 and 14:30 - Strollers OK: infants accepted - Age rule: Specialized infant seats are available ## Key facts - Price: from €60 per person - Duration: 3h - Rating: 4.54/5 from 116 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Recommended by 90% of travellers (share of four- and five-star reviews) - Operator: SUD KAYAK ## What's included - State-certified guide - Life jacket, paddle, dry bag, sea kayak ## Not included - Water, hat, sunglasses, swimsuit, closed shoes (compulsory), sunscreen. ## Schedule - Runs: daily - Departures: 09:30, 10:00, 10:15, 10:30, 13:45, 14:00, 14:30 - Schedule last checked: 2026-09-24 - These are published departures, not a live seat count; availability is confirmed at checkout. ## Cancellation For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time. ## Meeting point By bus, it is line number 35, bus stop "ESTAQUE RIAUX".
