Paddle through the calm, peaceful waters of the Lagoon of Mermaids, swim in the turquoise blue sea, and explore the historic island of Spinalonga – "the island of tears."

Your sea adventure starts from the water sports base at Elounda bay. At the base, you will learn about the right technique to paddle your two-seated sea-kayaks. When you are ready, embark on your kayaks, with a gentle slow row, to the island of Spinalonga.

After a swim break at Spinalonga's beach you will explore the historic island, once a massive fortress for the Venetians and later a leper colony. When you are through exploring, paddle back to the water sports base, where you will enjoy a delicious BBQ picnic lunch (vegetarian lunches can also be arranged, just let us know).

After lunch, take some free time to rest and swim, or even participate in other fun water sports such as windsurfing, water skiing, banana boats, and more. These activities are available at extra cost, which you will pay on the spot.
