Ondarreta Kayak

You can book your kayak directly through this website in the top section, selecting the desired activity, or by visiting our facilities right on Ondarreta beach. We recommend booking online to guarantee availability.

Although we always try to accommodate walk-ins, demand is very high during summer months or holidays in San Sebastián. We recommend booking at least 24 hours in advance.

Our hours vary slightly depending on the season and sunlight. Generally, during the summer season, we operate from early morning until sunset. You can check the exact daily schedule during the booking process for each boat.

Your safety is the priority of the Real Club de Tenis de San Sebastián. If weather conditions prevent the departure, our team will cancel the activity and we will offer you the option to reschedule your booking for another day or process a refund.
