Itinerary

Day 4 4-days Sea Kayak Expedition in South West Crete, Greece

CAMPING & FOOD

The expedition is self catering. Usually we each look after our own breakfast, lunch and snacks and prepare a group evening meal in turn.

We will buy 2 days worth of food and water at the beginning as there we will be able to restock during the route.

Meals in seaside towns, or beach side taverna's, are possible during the whole trip. Usually we prepare our own breakfast & dinner and have lunch in a taverna.

During off season (late October to late April) we will need carry more supplies and wont be possible to eat in a taverna as all are closed.

ARRIVAL & DEPARTURE DATES

We will meet near the city of Heraklion between 8-9 am. You should arrive in Heraklion the day before. If you find a cheaper flight to the airport in Chania then the best will be to meet us direct to the starting point as from there is about an hour and 45 minutes by bus while from Heraklion about 3 hours. If you do travel from Heraklion and you need transfer that is provided for free.

On the last day of the trip we will return back to Heraklion by our car and will be glad to drop you in the airport if your flight is on same date. Your flight needs to be late enough as we need about 3 hours to get there from the place that will finish our sea kayak trip.

The best place to fly to is Heraklion airport as it is much easier from there to deal with transport.

CAN I RENT ALL CAMPING EQUIPMENT?

We can provide all the equipment for camping apart from the sleeping bag for an extra cost. You can get a high quality 3 or 4 season tent for an extra 30€ for the whole duration of the trip and also the mattress. The stove (complete set from Trangia) and gas canister are an extra 30€ and are suitable for 2-3 persons.

WHEN IN YOUR OPINION IS A GOOD TIME TO DO THE EXPEDITION?

All year long as this particular trip is located on a very protected area. Usually the roughest sea is during January and February as it is common during those months to have strong south winds which bring big waves.
