Barcelona, kayaking, Costa Brava 2020
I'm planning a trip out to Barcelona in June this year. Me and my girlfriend love kayaking (in the UK), all kinds of other activities outside like hiking, walking, rock climbing and watersports etc but we really want a good fun days kayaking with a group. Given the sea will be warmer for us than back home we want recommendations for good companies to take us out and about (as we know the weather will be good, company and guide is important for the choice). We've had a couple of times in the past that that the tour looks good but it ended up being sub-par. So far looking at these two, reviews seem really good on both, any other recommendations / ideas welcome please!
Lastly, what's the difference with Costa Brava and Sitges? Sitges is closer so think we'll do that but thoughts welcome

Maybe I'm misunderstanding your question, but the Costa Brava is the entire coast of Spain from just north of Barcelona all the way to the French border. Sitges is a small town southwest of Barcelona.
I'm not a kayaker, so I could be wrong, but my understanding is that the waters are more likely to be rough on the Costa Brava than in Sitges.
Hope that helps!

The coast north from Barcelona to Blanes is the Costa Maresme. The Costa Brava begins north of Blanes and runs to the French border. On the Costa Brava one of the best kayaking adventures starts in the fishing village of Tamariú, with this company:

Friends have gone and have raved about it (but I'm not a kayaker). I know the the day tour company Spanish Trails, based in Girona, uses their services.
