About Us
Escape to the Seudre estuary with Esprit Paddle for Polynesian outrigger canoe trips or stand-up paddleboarding. Departing from the port of L'Éguille-sur-Seudre, explore the canals at nature's pace for an authentic experience.
Experience a timeless adventure in the heart of the marshes, discovering the wildlife, flora, and history of our region. Esprit Paddle offers stand-up paddleboarding and Polynesian outrigger canoe trips in a peaceful natural setting, far from the hustle and bustle of the coast. To ensure a serene experience, all excursions and water hikes are by reservation only.
The facility allows for a combination of outdoor sports and culinary delights:
– Explore the heritage: navigate the Seudre estuary and its hidden canals to observe local biodiversity
– Savor the local produce: enjoy a tasting or a meal on site at the “Esprit-Guinguette” open-air café, or at partner local producers
– Sharing an event: organizing tailor-made outings for groups, seminars, associations or private celebrations such as hen parties and birthdays
Whether renting independently or joining a guided tour, this unspoiled setting is accessible to those aged 12 and up (with swimming ability). It's the perfect opportunity to reconnect with nature and discover local cuisine in a warm and authentic atmosphere.
