Kayaking along Menorca’s coastline ranks among the Mediterranean’s most rewarding water adventures. The island’s Marine Reserve and Fornells Bay offer crystal-clear waters perfect for paddling, while numerous hidden coves await discovery. I particularly love the Marine Reserve Snorkeling combination tour – it packs incredible value by blending kayaking with up-close encounters with local marine life. The Transparent Kayak tours are another standout, offering a unique window into the underwater world without getting wet. For those seeking flexibility, several operators provide sailboat excursions that include both kayaks and snorkel gear. Most tours accommodate beginners to experienced paddlers, with options ranging from two hours to full-day adventures. Check out our tested and recommended tours below.
