Full description
Tired of flapping your fins as if you were being chased by a shark just to move two metres forward?
Forget about the effort and for 1 hour and 15 minutes you can explore the best areas of the Cabo de Palos marine reserve. You'll discover caves and glide smoothly through posidonia meadows and shoals of fish thanks to a state-of-the-art underwater propulsion system. With professional photos included so you can boast of mission accomplished.
What we will do
We will meet 15 minutes before the agreed time at the meeting point in Cabo de Palos. There we will meet our instructor and prepare the electric motors, masks and fins. Before launching, we will dedicate just 5 minutes to a technical talk on how to master the thruster: it is so intuitive that if you let go of the control, it stops by itself for safety.
Once we're ready, we'll dive in to follow a guided route around the most spectacular coves in the reserve, adapting the route according to the wind that day. We'll sail effortlessly at a speed of around 3 km/h, the perfect pace for snooping among the rocks and observing the marine fauna at close quarters without being spooked by our presence. It will be like having superpowers underwater.
We will have time to explore both the surface and the mid-water, descending to a depth of up to 5 metres with total freedom within the defined area. This is the moment to enjoy the sensation of floating as the motor glides us through this underwater landscape. You will feel like a real explorer discovering a new world without having to kick a single foot.
After getting the most out of the battery and the experience, we will return to the starting point to share the best anecdotes and take a look at the photos of the day. In total, we will experience approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes of pure adventure at sea.
