Don't suppose anyone knows where one could buy a of Kayak or two? Ideally second hand?
 
Decathalon do kayaks.

What is your intent with them, where do you plan using them?

In the bay? Obviously respecting the swimming areas.....is that a problem?
 
There are usually a few on the second-hand websites - vibbo & milanuncios. You could also try the local Surf & Sail company that rents them during summer, as they might sell you their old rentals.

No, just that so long as you weren't going down rapids then consider an inflatable one like this:

Sail and Surf don't have kayaks , it is Kayak Mallorca which is the other side of the La gola bridge.
 
yes I saw there were some old ones for sale, so will look into that when I return...thanks all!
 
Did you get any kayaks in the end? I'm still pondering. I think I'd need to get inflatables and tow them to the beach behind my bike. I saw them for sale in Bauhaus of all places...
 
No, didn't get around to it this year, plus the money ran out! I've got a big basement garage so would like to have kayaks, paddle boards and even a hobie cat eventually! Unfortunately this Brex**it disaster is killing my business, so such things are currently pie in the sky! :(
 
Oh dear. I've got a big attic and a winch/pulley outside the window but I dont fancy hauling a kayak up there so I think I'm stuck with the inflatable option...

Meanwhile, what line of business are you in. I work for a German car parts firm so at the moment its all a bit meh/dunno if we'll get hurt too much...

Perhaps I should buy the kayak and rent garage space from you... and you have the option to go paddle...

I run a commercial fit out company and people are just delaying spending money and you can't really blame them! :(

Renting out my basement is a bit complex unfortunately, for various reasons.
 
Bobley, do you have the inflatable kayaks? Im just wondering if they are any good?

I'm still looking at options, one of which is a a transparent double kayak which sounds interesting.
 
I haven't made any moves yet but I'm out again in a fortnight so may take the plunge...
 
We have an inflatable Kayak which we bought from Decathlon and seats 3. It is brilliant and we have loved taking it out in the bay with the children. We bought a little two wheel trolly and just pull it down to the beach and it is very easy to inflate and deflate. I would recommend it. The hardest part of the whole buying process was the Oars! Decathlon were completely sold out continuously (we tried a few stores) and we tried numerous shops and boat rental places in the port to no avail. It did make us chuckle how in a place like that we couldn't buy oars. We made do the first summer with dingy oars but they didn't really work and then ended up bring oars out with us from the UK last summer which work a treat.
 
We brought over from UK, a double inflatable kayak. It's brand new, with oars, still in original unopened box. If you are interested, please let me know. Thank you.

Thanks Big Sal.....I'll come back to you when I have worked out the best option, but obviously let it go if you have an offer beforehand.

What is it, so I can google it and how much are you looking for?

It's from Amazon UK, 'Intex Explorer K2 Kayak - Yellow/Black', listed at £85.41.
Open to price offers. Thanks.

NOW SOLD.
