Sea Kayak trip to the Medieval castles of Nafplio Claimed

fortresses.

All of them are rich in history and folklore from ancient times to medieval and more recent times. This is probably a world first and we are proud to offer this tour, in a fascinating, dominant setting.

The first place we visit is the famous fortress of Burji, built in 1473, in a tiny entrance just in front of the harbour. The importance of this fort throughout the years and the battles it has seen make it an ideal place for early histories and folklore.

After enjoying the wonderful location, we head towards the old town of Nafplio, under the cannons of the first fortification of the old town, while the UNESCO World Heritage Palamidi castle dominates above with a view. Once out of the port, we fly along the ancient road of Nafplion, under the fortress of Akronafplia, and you will be rewarded with stunning views of the dominant cliffs covered in lush vegetation with the fortress as its crown at the top.

We continue along the coastline until we reach a small secluded beach to enjoy our delicacies and refreshments. Once refreshed, depending on the weather conditions, we start to return to the starting port or arrive at our base at Karathonas beach where you can enjoy other water sports such as SUP and water biking before we transfer you to Nafplion (included in the price).

There will be plenty of time for group and family photos in kayaks around the rocks and forts before arriving at our beach finish point.
