Guided Coastal Sea Exploration Trips on sit-on-top kayaks
Cyprus has coastlines that are great for ecofriendly coastal sea exploration trips
According to Greek mytholody, Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love and Beauty was born in Cyprus, just off the coast, in the Paphian waters at a location called 'Petra tou Romiou'. Cyprus relation to the goddess of beauty is probably a testament to the island's good looks.
Cyprus 650 km (400 mi) long coastline has various amazing golden or white sand beaches (eg near Agia Napa, Protaras and Akamas), many of which are considered to be among the best in the Mediterranean sea. Long rocky stretches, with various formations and colours, sea caves and natural bridges, a number of islets and even remote, empty sandy beaches, beg for the visitors' exploration.
Crystal clear, calm and warm water along many of the stretches and for big periods around the year make coastal sea exploration relatively easy and very inviting. The presence of welcomed animals like (migrating) water birds and sea turtles (and a few Mediterranean - Monachus monachus - monk seals, though it is extremely rare to spot any) further enriches the experience of the coastal sea explorer.
What are sit-on-top kayaks?
Our Sit-on-top kayaks are light (under 19 kg each), and easy human-powered personal watercraft. We choose them over more advanced (narrower, longer etc) sea kayaks especially because they are fine for people with no kayaking experience, interested in exploring the coastline (and they are easier logistically, to transport).
