Here, however, we don't just contemplate the water that surrounds us. We make the most of it! Rent a kayak or paddle board, and go exploring. Or, how about trying an electric surfboard or a water bike? And, let's not forget our beaches! There are plenty of options in the region for fans of water activities.
