Agia Pelagia

The trip is suitable for everyone, a few km away from Heraklion town. No previous experience is necessary and no need to carry any paddling equipment as it will be provided by us. It is just ten minutes driving from Heraklion.

Overview of the trip

Details about the trip: Depending on the group experience and weather forecast we can extend or shrink the trip. Beautiful rock formations, a few remote beaches, and an impressive cave will be discovered during our kayaking trip. 

Snorkel stop, of course, will be possible during the paddling. Snorkel gear is included in price.

You can either pack your lunch or eat in a taverna. As most of the trips, we’ve got two options; the first is more or less 12 km and the longest one about 20 km for the more experienced paddlers. This is the best trip if you are staying close to Heraklion and don’t want to drive too much.

Frequently Asked Questions

What to bring?

You will need 1.5lt of water (ideally in small bottles),sun glasses, hat, sunscreen, swimsuit, lycra shirt or any t-shirt ideally with UV protection. You will also need shoes that you do not mind getting soaked as you will get your feet wet. Ideally a light neoprene shoe will work great. It is not required to wear shoes but they will help as the majority of the beaches are with small pebbles.
