A sport enjoyed by many who visit the Mar Menor is kayaking. The Mar Menor is ideal both for beginner kayakers and professionals: beginners can not get lost in the open sea, as the Mar Menor has 5 islands and is separated from the Mediterranean by the strip of La Manga del Mar Menor. And professionals have many miles to train in a unique setting. For the more adventurous remains the exit to the Mediterranean Sea through one of the two channels, Marchamalo or El Estacio.
