kayaking from Burriana beach to Maro
It is very hard to believe that you are in southern-most Spain. The water is glass-like, crystal clear and exceptionally clean. The landscape is completely wild and untouched, with waterfalls on almost every corner, secluded coves and beaches that can only be reached by kayak, sea caves that reflect different stone colours……all just waiting to be explored.
“Paradise Exists – And It Is In Andalucia”
“You don’t have to travel thousands of kilometres by air to reach paradise, it is here, in our back garden” so concluded a recent Canal Sur television program.
Exploring the various caves and rock features (Cueva del Lobo, Casa de gaviotas y roca caída, Caletilla de Maro), passing under the numerous waterfalls – several large streams and rivers from the Sierra de Almijara discharge here, forming waterfalls. The largest being the Cascada la doncella and the Cascada grande de Maro.
