ATHENS SOUNIO MORNING SEA KAYAK
Description
Highlights:
Gradually the setting turns more rural than urban until we reach the beach of Cape Sounion where we prepare ourselves for our amazing sea kayaking experience. Once we try on our equipment and after our guides briefing on paddling and safety, our journey is ready to begin.
We paddle along the coast and enjoy the crystal clear waters, mighty cliffs, and hidden caves.
We make a stop at the island of Archi or on one of the beaches of Legrena for a swim and refreshing snack. Having refueled our energy we continue to Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon, which we first admire from the sea before we shore to the beach. Our tour includes an entrance fee to the Temple of Poseidon before we end our day at a Greek tavern for a delicious Greek meal.
