- Pirate Canoe, the pleasure of canoeing on the Dordogne
  Discover the beauty of the Périgord Noir along the water from May to October, departing from Vézac, at the entrance to the village of La-Roque-Gageac. Easily accessible with its large free parking lot, the Canoë Pirate base offers you a fun and sporty day aboard a kayak or a canoe. Let's go for the descent!
  Pirate Canoe, pleasant canoe trips to book in Vézac
  What a pleasure to glide on the Dordogne, a calm and safe river accessible to children from 5 years old. Available for rental, the canoes allow 2, 3 or 4 people to navigate, while the kayaks are designed for individuals or couples. Once you have your life jackets on, grab your paddles and head to the Canoë Pirate base for a soothing boat trip on the Dordogne. The routes are varied to allow everyone to organize their day according to their desires and energy, with long routes from 2 to 25 km. Itineraries of 2 to 7 days are also available for the more athletic who can get active on 130 km of river, admiring the fauna and flora that evolve in total freedom. Keep your eyes open to see herons or kingfishers !
  Pirate Canoeing, the promise of a day full of emotions in Vézac
  After a few paddle strokes, the Valley of the Castles appears, revealing magnificent villages perched between Beynac, Domme or Castelnaud, while the castles strut from the top of their rocky promontories. Take the time to pause to appreciate the beauty of the landscapes that are revealed as you progress. Once the descent is finished, a mini-bus takes you back to the base to return the equipment used. Don't forget to bring towels, sunscreen and swimsuits to enjoy the beach of Vézac after the canoe trip. Isolated and green, it allows you to swim and rest facing the river which flows gently, revealing a few barges from time to time. The picnic is also a good idea for an outdoor lunch on a suitable space shaded by willows and poplars. On site, a snack bar also offers gourmet, homemade meals with a variety of recipes to enjoy without having to cook.
  
  The added bonus? The price includes equipment, transport, insurance, and the loan of a waterproof container.

The canoe trip itself is magnificent. We covered the 16 km from Vitrac. However, the driver drove his van with 15 passengers at excessive speed. This is simply unacceptable! We understand that this market is very competitive, but we can't play with the health of vacationers. That's why we will never sail here again.

Very friendly team, recent and well-maintained equipment. I recommend this starting point.

A friendly and super accommodating canoe rental agency. The rates are competitive. You can freely choose between canoes and kayaks and even change en route when you're going downhill for over 20 km. I highly recommend them.
