Pelagic Trips
Departing from Zumaia, we head offshore with no fixed objective other than being out on the ocean and observing whatever the pelagic environment chooses to reveal.
A pelagic trip is about scanning and following the horizon: seabirds, surface wildlife, and unique moments that only the open sea can offer.
A calm and authentic experience for those who want to feel the offshore Cantabrian Sea in its most natural form.
