What do I need to bring for this adventure?

IMPORTANT!

Please note that you will only have a 15-liter dry bag and a small waterproof container (we provide both) to carry your luggage, aside from the small backpack you need to bring yourself. We strongly ask that you do not bring more items than recommended. Part of this experience is about enjoying the luxury of not needing many things to have a good time.

Any other luggage you bring to the island that you do not take on the kayak trip will be stored by Vuelta Ibiza Kayak under lock and key and returned at the end of the week.

Below is a list of recommended packing for your Kayak Tour of Ibiza:

  • Sleeping bag (medium temperature) that doesn’t take up too much space.
  • Mat: VIK will provide you with an insulated trekking mat, but if you want to bring your own, you are free to do so. Some recommendation:
  1. Self-inflating mat 1
  2. Self-inflating mat 2
  3. Self-inflating mat 3
  • DNI, NIE or Passport.
  • Social Security or Private Insurance Card.
  • Thin towel or sarong (that doesn’t take up too much space).
  • 2 swimsuits or bikinis.
  • 1 long-sleeved sun-protective shirt (if you have very fair skin, we also recommend tights). Examples:
  1. Men’s T-shirt
  2. Women’s T-shirt
  3. Mesh
  • Two t-shirts and two shorts.
  • Change of underwear (for sleeping).
  • A long-sleeved T-shirt or a light sweatshirt and long summer pants. (If you’re coming in September, pack a little thicker pants for the evenings.)
  • A pair of socks.
  • Booties (important becasue there are rocks and sea urchins).
  • Flip-flops with straps (for dry use). If they’re for trekking, they’re better than flip-flops. Crocs are also a good option.
  • Aluminum and/or plastic plate, glass and cutlery.
  • Cap or hat.
  • Sunglasses with a strap so you don’t lose them at sea.
  • One-liter or one-and-a-half-liter canteen (if it is opaque, even better).
  • Sun cream.
  • Mosquito repellent and/or mosquito net. If you’re particularly prone to mosquito bites, we recommend, in addition to a tropical mosquito repellent, a mosquito net that doesn’t take up much space. Recommendations:
  1. Mosquito net 1
  2. Mosquito net 2
  • Goggles and snorkel.
  • Headlamp.
  • Toiletry bag: toothpaste, toothbrush, dental floss, comb, and wet wipes. If you have long hair, a leave-in detangling spray is often helpful. Under no circumstances will we use soap in the sea.
  • Small backpack (about 10 liters) that can get wet (it doesn’t need to be waterproof, a drawstring backpack, like a merchandising backpack, is fine).
  • Biodramina tablets with caffeine (for those who get seasick).
  • Shoveling gloves, gym type (not necessary, but recommended).
  • Pen.
  • Power bank (in case you want to charge your phone, since there won’t be many outlets).
  • Waterproof case for mobile phone.
  • Food for the first day (although there’s an Eroski supermarket where you can buy food before starting the trek on the first day). We recommend things that don’t require much preparation (canned sardines, cold cuts, bread, nuts, fruit, etc.). Throughout the trek, we’ll stop in areas with supermarkets or grocery stores.

Remember that the water and energy bars for the trip are provided by Vuelta Ibiza Kayak.
