Canoeing at the Mediterranean Games

Canoeing has been featured as competition sports in the Mediterranean Games irregularly. It has appeared in the 1979, 1991-1997 and 2005-2008 Mediterranean Games.

Two styles of boats are or have been used in this sport: canoes with 1 or 2 canoers and kayaks with 1, 2 or 4 kayakers. This leads to the name designation of each event. For example, "C-1" is a canoe singles event and "K-2" is a kayak doubles event. Races are usually 500 metres or 1000 metres long, although there are other distances.
