Four hours or a full day: which kayak rental should you choose?

The right duration depends on how you want to spend your time. A cove and a swim, or a walk on the island between paddling sessions: here is how to choose.

A half-day for a first discovery

The half-day option lasts four hours. It suits an escape towards Sainte-Marguerite with one or two breaks, while leaving part of your day free. Keep the programme flexible and simple.

Avoid trying to fit in every attraction. Arriving on the island, swimming when conditions allow and taking a short walk may be plenty. Allow time for preparation, crossing and return.

A full day to slow down

A full day makes sense if you enjoy longer breaks: lunch in the shade, a walk along the paths and then back to your kayak. It gives more room for a longer route, without requiring a visit to Saint-Honorat.

Keep a return margin even on a full-day rental. Conditions can change, and an enjoyable stop should not make you forget the return time. Discuss your morning plan with the team.

Compare prices and other durations

A half-day costs €30 per person and a full day €35. From five participants, the prices become €25 and €30 per person. Shorter rentals cost €12 for one hour or €20 for two hours, without that group discount.

Sunset rentals cost €25 per person, or €20 from five people. A full day plus sunset costs €45, or €40 at the group rate. Choose based on the outing you want, then let the team help you refine the programme.
