Full description
Tired of flapping your arms as if you were being chased by a shark just to get two metres further?
Forget the effort and spend 1 hour and 15 minutes exploring the best parts of the Cabo de Palos Marine Reserve. You’ll discover caves and glide gently through Posidonia seagrass meadows and schools of fish, thanks to a state-of-the-art underwater propulsion system. With the option to add professional photos so you can show off your mission accomplished.
What we will do
We’ll meet 15 minutes before the agreed time at the meeting point in Cabo de Palos. There, we’ll meet our instructor and get our electric motors, masks and fins ready. Before we set off, we’ll spend just 5 minutes on a technical briefing to get to grips with the propulsion system: it’s so intuitive that, if you let go of the control, it stops automatically for safety reasons.
Once ready, we’ll dive in to follow a guided route through the reserve’s most spectacular coves, adapting the route depending on the wind conditions that day. We’ll glide effortlessly at a speed of around 3 km/h – the perfect pace for exploring amongst the rocks and observing marine life up close without startling it. It’ll be like having superpowers underwater.
We’ll have time to explore both the surface and mid-water zones, descending to a depth of 5 metres with complete freedom within the designated area. It’s time to enjoy the sensation of floating whilst the motor glides us through this underwater landscape. We’ll feel like real explorers discovering a whole new world without having to kick a single time.
After making the most of the battery and the experience, we’ll return to the starting point to share our best stories. In total, we’ll enjoy around 1 hour and 15 minutes of pure adventure at sea.
