What To Expect
The Free Guide trip lasts approximately 4 hours and allows you to enjoy and experience a unique adventure without dedicating an entire day. We start with a short lesson on the beach to go over the elements of kayaking including safety issues, proper paddling techniques, steering and stability tips. We learn also the various details of our journey. Then we start a relaxed paddling in the calm waters of Vourvourou bay, heading over to the nearby Diaporos island. During this first part of our trip, we will enjoy the beautiful scenery of Vourvourou bay while receiving interesting knowledge and information about the culture, history, and traditions of the region. On our first long rest stop, we will swim and snorkel in the crystal blue waters of the relax under the shadows of pine trees and or of course enjoy the healthy lunchbox (on demand) with local delicacies and fresh fruits of the season! On our way back to Vourvourou resort, we will have another short rest stop on the shore of one of the south beaches of Diaporos island. There we have again the chance to get out of the kayaks, stretch our legs and enjoy a quick refreshing swim and snorkeling in the cool waters.

5.00We had such a fantastic trip today in the sea kayaks. Our guide Manolis was lovely and full of interesting island facts. The water is crystal clear with beautiful beaches, and we found an amazing underwater world while snorkelling seeing starfish, all sorts of fish, and even an octopus. Highly recommended 👌 Thank you for a wonderful day 😁

5.00We did the full day trip with the kayaks and were totally thrilled . Great weather, great guide who also conveyed a lot of interesting information and great snacks and food. That's all you can expect. As a tip this makes in the week on the weekend are unfortunately very many boats on the way and it is a bit overcrowded
