Great day trip! - We had a great trip - Fotis was a spectacular guide: fun and helpful and adapted our trip to the conditions on the day. We got to kayak into a sea cave and walk to another cave to swim inside. Fotis was really knowledgeable about the area and told great stories explaining the history, geology and landscape. He also brought a delicious simple lunch including olive oil from his own trees. I would definitely recommend a trip!

Sea Kayak in Kardamyli - Explore Messinia - The Sea Kayak day trip was an incredible experience. It was beautifully organized from beginning to end. This is a great day activity also for people who are not well experienced with kayaking. The guide - Fotis - was wonderful; he explained everything very clearly at the beginning and set up a fantastic itinerary. We travelled for 8 1/2 Km along the coast, with breaks to see sites and some sea caves. Stopped for lunch and explored another underground cave and had a delicious picnic on the beach. He talked very eloquently about everything we saw and had boundless energy. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him. Then ready to head back to the port after about 4 hours. If you are exploring the area of Kardamyli, this is a unique way to look at the coast from the sea and get a very different perspective. It is a fun activity and not too strenuous. Cannot recommend it enough! The perfect way to explore the coast of Mani.

Great time kayaking!! - My husband and I did this kayaking outing last year while visiting Stoupa. We had a great time. The crew was wonderful and took excellent care of us. We spent a few hours on the water along the coast, saw caves, had a nice local lunch provided and met some wonderful people. We will do it again when we visit in 2024.

Amazing swim in a Blue Cave that felt totally undisturbed by tourists - The weather was perfect for both the kayaking and swim in the blue cave. The water was a crystal blue, warm and clear. The tour leaders were fabulous, with interesting details of the area, highly skilled, where we felt totally safe and yet they took us exploring the coastline as well as inside two sea caves. I must say this kayaking trip plus swim in the blue cave ranks as a highlight of my time in Greece.

Kayaking Fun in Kardamili, Greece - I would highly recommend this sea kayak adventure. The tour was run by George and Yanni, both experienced kayakers. Their instruction was excellent and their concern for safety and fun was paramount throughout the tour. Their equipment was first rate and the tour started on time. There were several first time kayakers and they seemed to do as well as the experienced paddlers.
