Great experience - We really enjoyed our day kayaking with the guys at sea kayak Naxos and would definitely recommend it to anyone thinking of booking.
It was a small group and they catered well for different levels of experience (and teach you all you need to know if you’re a complete beginner). The sea, caves, cliffs and beaches are absolutely beautiful and we had a lovely day weather wise. The cliff jumping and snorkelling through the sea cave added to the experience.
You can tell a lot of effort went on behind the scenes to make this a memorable experience - from the prep of kayak sizes, the loaning of things like hats and long sleeved shirts to keep us safe from the sun, and the delicious home prepped fresh food that was served.
We felt safe throughout and the guides were all lovely

Amazing! - Amazing experience! We made a lot of stops along the way to swim, go into the cave, cliff jump, and eat and recharge. The guides made the kayaking experience a lot of fun!

Book this for a beautiful and adventurous day! - Lovely full-day experience kayaking and swimming in the east region of Naxos. Our guides were awesome and made sure we felt comfortable with all the different parts of the day (kayaking through caves, cliff-jumping, snorkeling). The lunch was delicious and we had a blast! They also provided water shoes, long sleeved shirts, and hats which really helped for the amount of time we were on the water. Big bonus: they take pictures of you so you have great memories from the day!

A favorite experience of our Greece trip. - One of our favorite days in Greece. The guides make it easy and enjoyable. My Dad and I both had minimal kayaking experience and they made it accessible to everyone. Rina cave and the cliff jump were memorable but they also take you to a wonderful less visited beach. You appreciate all that Naxos has to offer.
The guides have thought of everything. They had wet shirts, shoes, hats and dry bags as well as water for us.
Only thing to keep in mind is there are no bathrooms or facilities at the port kick off/return.

Perfect kayaking, cliff jumping, beach picnic trip in Naxos - This was absolutely the highlight of our trip to Naxos. From Christina’s warm welcome when she picked us up, all the facts and lore Manos shared with us while riding to the launch point and while kayaking, to the incredible views and fun while kayaking, we made so many incredible memories. The snacks and picnic were traditional and delicious. Jumping from rocks at the waters edge and from the top of Rina Cave was exhilarating. The waters were stunning. Our guides (Manos and guide Christina) were perfect hosts. We are middle aged and reasonably fit and this was a very doable trip, even with a little wind. We would definitely do this trip again! Very very highly recommend.

Best tour on Naxos - This was easily our favorite excursion on Naxos. Manolis and (both!) Christina’s were incredibly knowledgeable about sea kayaking and gave us a great primer on techniques and safety. The attention to detail is evident in the way Manolis and Christina took the time to get to know our names and chat with us one on one, the well maintained new kayaks, and how they were prepared with any gear we might need - sun shirts, ocean shoes, dry bags, water bottles etc. Perhaps my favorite part was the delicious homemade (organic locally grown) lunch they provided. Manolis is clearly passionate about the natural and archeological history of the area as well as experiencing the beauty of Naxos from the sea. At the end of the day with Manolis and Christina it’s not hard to see why.

The Best - We have done sea kayak trips all over the world and this was the best. The equipment, the staff, the location and especially the lunch food. Could not recommend more. We'll worth the money for full day of fun

Wonderful Kayak Day Trip - The kayaking & picnicking with Manolis, Leader, & Christina, Guide was wonderful. They were organized & well prepared. Communication was great. We learned some Greek history, ate delicious salad, & heard Greek Humor from Manolis.
