Our latest program for people with a good portion of experience and pioneering spirit: our Sea Kayak Holidays week on the Costa da Morte, the "Coast of Death", in wild Galicia. Rough weather is not uncommon in Galicia, which is more reminiscent of Ireland than the rest of Spain. The coast is rugged and varied. Our camp is planned as a stationary camp, but an overnight tour with a bivouac is not out of the question.

Even though the conditions in Galicia can be rough and this is certainly not a camp for inexperienced paddlers: Hey, it's mid-June and we're in Spain! That means it's summer here too and it's not stormy every day, and you can reasonably expect wonderful paddling and holiday weather. We have already spent several weeks in Galicia in June and really enjoyed the time, even if it may have rained or gotten foggy from time to time. So we are optimistic and are looking forward to a great discovery camp with you, during which we all will to explore the entire Costa da Morte between Malpica and Fisterra on day trips. Our basic Sea Kayak Holidays motto applies here too: quality instead of quantity, wows before miles.

What can you expect on the Costa da Morte? First and foremost, a super exciting, winding coastline, with dozens of larger and smaller capes and rocky headlands, all of which are open to the west and northwest and thus exposed to the Atlantic swell. In between: flat, light sandy beaches like in paradise and some lush green, deep rias that offer protection and adventure at the same time on days when it is too rough outside. At some points in these rias, but also around the offshore Sisargas Islands, in the very north of the Costa da Morte, there are also strong tidal currents that promise exciting conditions. The tidal range during our week is only 2m on average, and Wednesday is neap tide. But that's not a bad thing, because the unfiltered Atlantic swell will provide enough fun or challenge, depending on the situation.
