Shakayak — Attraction in Zagora - Mouresi Municipality

As an ex kayak instructor in the UK, I was very impressed with this tour. We did the Fikastra beach tour which was sold as a 4 hour trip but actually was more like 5 hours which was a pleasant surprise (perhaps because our group was on the bigger size)!

The tour is run by an experienced guide who has been doing it for 10 years. Prior to the session, I saw him carefully checking the up to date weather forecast to ensure the safety of all participants.

For our trip there was also a safety boat (a powerboat) which was reassuring should anything have happened. All these things combined made for a very professional set up.

The actual trip consists of visiting a freshwater spring flowing into the ocean, we got to see and hold a sea urchin, and also going in a sea cave.

At the beach we were served fresh Dakos (this is a brown dense bread, with tomato sauce and fresh crumbled cheese on top) and Iced tea, which was very nice. It was cold and made fresh and you can have it without certain ingredients if you have an allergy.

You don't have to be a particularly strong paddler for this trip; we only actually paddled 7km, and you can go in single or double kayaks which is your choice. They are also sit on top kayaks so very stable. There are plenty of rest stops so I wouldn't worry about doing this if you haven't paddled before. The staff were super friendly (spoke excellent English) and the whole trip was a real highlight of our holiday

Top tips: -You must wear a t-shirt under your boyancy aid so wear an old one for this. -You also might want a dry t-shirt for Fikastra beach as it's in the shade so a little cooler. -It's a good idea to wear some sturdy shoes (that can get wet) for the trip for when you need to climb on some rocks for one part. I only had flips flops which were allowed but weren't ideal. You pay for the trip at the end in Victoria's café. The instructor takes photos throughout the trip which he uploads to Dropbox within 3 days for no extra charge. They were lovely photos including action shots! Dry bags are provided and there is a small shed to lock up personal...

Unforgettable Kayak Trip with Shakayak!

I recently had the pleasure of going on a kayak trip in Greece with Tomas and his crew, Sabrian and Tassos, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. From start to finish, Tomas went above and beyond to ensure that our kayaking adventure was enjoyable and safe.

Their knowledge of the local waters and expertise in kayaking made me feel confident and at ease throughout the trip. They provided us with top-quality equipment and gave clear instructions on kayaking techniques, ensuring that we were comfortable navigating the waters.

The itinerary planned by Tomas was exceptional. We explored stunning coastlines, hidden coves, and breathtaking caves that I would have never discovered on my own. Their passion for the environment and conservation was evident as they shared fascinating insights about the marine life and ecosystems we encountered along the way.

Not only did Tomas provide a remarkable kayaking experience, but they also prioritized our safety at all times. They were vigilant in monitoring the weather conditions and wind, ensuring that we were always in safe waters. Their professionalism and attention to detail were truly commendable.

In addition to their expertise, Tomas was friendly, approachable, and had a great sense of humor. They created a warm and welcoming atmosphere, making the entire trip even more enjoyable.
