Water Activities

Spend time on the water and see the coast from a different angle.

Explore the Coastline with our Kayak

Here, discover the beauty of Crete’s southern coastline from the water.
Our kayak offers an amazing way to explore the shore. You paddle through crystal-clear waters, past rugged cliffs, hidden coves, and small, secluded beaches.

As you move along the coastline, you enjoy the landscape below the cliffs.
You also catch glimpses of marine life beneath the surface. In this way, it’s an easy and unhurried way to experience southern Crete from a different angle.
There’s time to pause, float, and simply take it all in.

Our kayak is available for complimentary use by our guests, weather permitting.
