Kayaking offers a different perspective from which to experience this epic stretch of coastline. You’ll paddle along the coast exploring secret bays which are tucked away from the paths above!
WILL WE SEE ANY WILDLIFE?
The Gazzle’s deep caves were once used by pirates and smugglers which means they are now steeped in a rich history, as well as playing host to native wildlife of all shapes and sizes. Inquisitive seals may even pop their heads up to say hello as you paddle past!
