Vallon-Pont-D'Arc

This nautical base offers you canoes or kayaks for a descent of the Ardèche with or without a guide, from half a day to two days with courses from 8 to 32 km. La Petite Mer will spoil you: map of the descent of the gorges, packed lunch (on reservation), possibility of picnic on the base, swimming on the spot, coffee at the start, refreshments on the way back, rental of wetsuits, shoes and tents. And when Gino accompanies you, he offers you a different view of the caves, the bays, the springs, the fauna and flora.

I especially like this canoe rental company, which is very attentive to its customers. The reception of these ladies is adorable - even when it is crowded! -the advice is always precious, the equipment is reliable and robust. All the descents are possible: mini-descent of 6 kilometers, descent of 24 kilometers in one day, descent of 30 kilometers in one or two days and maxi-descent of 60 kilometers in three days with more technical passages of toboggan. A safe address for descents in the best conditions.

Book a day, a weekend or a week and try out all the activities on offer at this water sports center. You'll benefit from over 20 years' experience in canoeing and kayaking. A fleet unique in the Ardèche, with 600 polyethylene boats, regularly renewed and courses ranging from 5 km to 36 km. The base also offers a wide range of equipment for sale - both used and new. Buses ensure your return.
