Whether you're looking for a relaxed day of sea tubing or an adrenaline-pumping hiking adventure, Hekaya offers a variety of adventures to suit your pace.
To help you choose the right one, hosts categorize their Adventures into four different intensity levels. You can find this classification by visiting the host Requirements section on a web browser. We recommend carefully reading the activity descriptions to make sure the Adventure aligns with your expectations. If you have any questions or need more information, don't hesitate to send a message to the host.
