5.00This was a beautiful trip to take even though the route had to be changed due to weather conditions. It was too windy to take the route to the caves so we started at a different location and took a calmer route. David & Hector were great guides and the snack on the beach was delicious. We were inexperienced kayakers so the length of the trip and it catering to a beginner level was perfect. Communication with the administration was excellent as well. This tour was the highlight of our Greece trip and well worth the money spent, which was very reasonable.
You'll regret skipping it

5.00Sea kayaking with David and Hector was such an incredible experience - the two lads were friendly & professional, and such a fountain of information about the island's history & culture. Absolutely loved every part of our 5 day stay in Naxos, but this was still the highlight. Couldn't recommend it any higher.
Great Tour Guides

5.0014/10, the whole experience was wonderful, we highly recommend! The tour was shortened due to the high waves during our stay, but the instructors tried their best and found an area for us to kayak safely; while making sure our experience was enjoyable. David and Hector shared a variety of history behind local landmarks and myths surrounding them. And we got to enjoy our time at the beach as well, alongside local snacks! Highly recommend booking with them. The driver was also extremely knowgeable and helpful with answering our many questions!! 😊💯
Once in a lifetime!
