The Greek Adventure

The Mediterranean is renowned for its ancient history, its civilization, its light and its beauty. The Greek archipelago is its crowning jewel.

These islands crowd the northeast part of the Mediterranean, sparkling in the sun. There are over 3000 of them and if rocky outcroppings are included the number reaches 9500, 140 of which are inhabited.

This Adventure is all about paddling between bare islands with snow-white villages clinging to the lips of towering cliffs gazing at the crystal blue sea. We explore enchanting turquoise coves, rock gardens and hidden caves, and trek to twelfth century Crusaders castles, secluded chapels and monasteries dense with groves of olives and pine trees.

Our Greek trip is for those who want to relax by dining at specially selected village tavernas, taking a nap on white sand beaches, snorkeling, swimming, and even improving kayak skills with our B.C.U certified instructors.

In every expedition we choose a different group of islands to explore, usually paddling between15 to 30 km a day. At the end of the day, we might choose to spend the night at a local guest house in a traditional village, eating calamari and Greek salad in a local taverna, or decide to camp on remote sandy beach, relaxing by the campfire, eating pasta and drinking ouzo and retsina (in moderation, of course!) This trip is for those who have some paddling experience and would like to improve their skills by paddling the warm water of the Mediterranean Sea.
We paddle between 10 to 25 km per day and make sure we have time for hiking, swimming and relaxing on the beachThis expedition is for paddlers with previous sea kayaking experience who would like to further develop skills that will help them enjoy paddling in windy and rough sea conditions

We only use high-end composite performance kayaks made in UK by NIgel Dennis
