When is the best time to book activities in Recco?

Summer is the busiest window for water activities along the Genoese Riviera, so booking ahead is wise if your dates are fixed, especially for the longer kayak routes. Late spring and early autumn bring calmer conditions and fewer people on the water, which many families prefer.

How do I choose between the family-friendly experiences in Recco?

Start with how long your children can comfortably stay on the water. The three-hour kayak and SUP tour to Camogli and the three-hour snorkeling tour with biologists are good first choices for younger or less experienced kids. The six-hour kayak route from Recco to San Fruttuoso covers more distance and suits families with older children who are.

About Recco

Recco is a Ligurian seaside town where families can spend the day between calm water, focaccia bakeries and boat-free coastal adventures. Kids and parents can paddle together on the Kayak and SUP Tour to Camogli on the Genoese Riviera, or go further along the coast on the Kayak Tour from Recco to San Fruttuoso, both easygoing ways to see the Riviera from the water.

Frequently asked questions

Recco suits families because the coastline is short, sheltered and easy to reach, and the activities on offer are guided rather than independent. Kayak and SUP tours keep groups small and stay close to shore, while snorkeling tours are led by expert biologists who keep children engaged with what they see underwater.
