About the activity

Delve into the captivating history and breathtaking scenery of a picturesque destination nestled along the northern coast of Crete on this amazing morning sea kayaking excursion around Kissamos Bay! Explore the Gramvousa Peninsula coastline, discover the Mannassa Rose Shipwreck, and the Nopigia area on this wonderful experience, which you can take part in with traditional kayaking or try the kayak-sailing method by installing a sail at the front of your vessel.

The journey on this morning sea kayaking excursion around Kissamos Bay begins as you meet your guide at Mithimna Beach and prepare to explore the coastline of Kissamos Bay. If you choose the kayak-sailing option, you'll need to attend a lesson on this method a day before the excursion. When you're on the beach, you'll receive your equipment, including a kayak, paddle, life vest, UV-proof Lycra, and sail (if you chose that option). And once you're ready, you'll set off!

On your 4-hour morning sea kayaking excursion around Kissamos Bay, you'll learn about the story behind the "Manassa Rose" shipwreck, a reminder of maritime history resting peacefully in the crystal-clear waters of the bay as you paddle along the rugged coastline, and see what remains of it from your kayak! You will also encounter the remnants of an old metal mine, dating back to 1905. Gain insight into the region's industrial heritage as you explore these intriguing ruins. Continue your adventure to a private beach, accessible only by sea. Finally, take a well-deserved break to unwind on the sandy shores, indulge in a refreshing swim, or snorkel amidst the vibrant marine life beneath the surface.

Conclude your tour by venturing into a sea cave adorned with majestic rock formations and echoing with the calls of seabirds. Immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the cave before returning to the meeting point for the end of your morning sea kayaking excursion around Kissamos Bay, filled with unforgettable memories of your sea kayak expedition.

Don't miss out on the amazing adventure that is a sea kayaking excursion around Kissamos Bay with excellent visits to the Manassa Rose shipwreck, the old Ravdoucha metal mines, and much more! You won't regret it.
