Activity description

Explore the Karst coastline of Rouda Bay on this sea kayaking excursion, an adventure that explores hidden beaches and submerged sea caves along the Lefkada coastline.

A chance to discover the island from the tide line – appreciate the natural charm and casual pace of life and travel up to Sivota!

Meet your guide at the activity base on Mikros Gialos Beach for this 3.5-hour sea kayaking excursion to Sivota! A chance to appreciate the island’s unique karst formation, the lagoon-like waters of Rouda Bay, renowned for their aquamarine caves and hidden beaches – offering endless places to swim and snorkel!

After a short safety briefing and paddle practice, you’ll follow your guide to a small beach – inaccessible by any other form of transport. There, you’ll get a chance to enjoy the stunning scenery before leaving Rouda Bay for the dramatic rocky coastline in the direction of Sivota.

Cruising up to the quaint harbour, you will leave the kayaks and explore the port on foot – sampling local delicacies along the way. The return will take you back via the west side of the bay, where you will jump in for a refreshing swim and dive to inspect soft corals that decorate the shallow pools. Our top tip? Keep a lookout for dolphins that love to play out in the sea!

Très belle journée sous un soleil de mai, réalisée en petit groupe de 3 personnes. On pagaie d'abord pendant un heure jusqu'à une petite plage tranquille, puis arrêt baignade et restauration. Puis on rentre tranquillement au-dessus de fonds bleu clair, en longeant les formations rocheuses et les grottes. Nouvel arrêt plage et baignade, puis retour.

It was fun and pleasant. You share kayak with your partner. It was an easy tour and we get to see 2 caves as well. I would recommend!
