Santorini is a stunning island located in the southern Aegean Sea, forming part of the Cyclades archipelago in Greece. It is famous for its dramatic landscapes, with cliffs overlooking the deep blue sea, black-sand beaches, and remnants of an ancient volcanic caldera.
For this activity, you'll be picked up from your accommodation in Santorini (please specify your location upon booking). The journey begins at Kampia Beach, a beautiful beach on the southeastern coast of Santorini known for its pristine waters, soft black sand, and tranquil atmosphere.

Then, the sea kayaking adventure begins!
Immerse yourself in the awe-inspiring natural beauty of Santorini's volcanic valley while you glide along the Akrotiri coastline. The first site you'll pass is the renowned Red Beach, one of the most iconic attractions on the island's south coast, named after its scarlet-coloured sand and cliffs. Next, you'll pass by the charming White Beach and Mesa Pigadia, two more stunning beaches on the south coast.
You'll take a break at the beaches for a refreshing swim and an exciting snorkelling adventure. Then, you'll enjoy a delicious beach picnic in this serene setting. The adventure continues to the final destination, the enchanting 'Black Mountain', where you'll encounter a myriad of hidden caves and unique rock formations. The sea kayaking excursion ends back at the starting point at Kampia Beach in Santorini. The guide will then transfer you to your accommodation on the island.
