This was probably the best experience we had in Santorini! We loved kayaking and snorkelling in breathtaking landscapes but our guide Kaliope is what made the experience truly memorable. She is hands down the nicest and friendliest person we met throughout our time in Santorini and really made this feel like an adventure. If you can do just one experience during your visit, make it this one.
Fantastic day kayaking on Santorini

We had an amazing experience with Kaliope the owner of Serenity Kayak. She arranged four our group to be picked up at our hotel in Thera. We had an orientation and got equipped. She had everything we needed for our day. Hats, flotation vests, water; masks & snorkels, a d a towel (in dry bags). She also packed our kayaks with small backpacks with lunch. Kaliope is a very nice young woman and we also met her mother, Maria. Kaliope speaks lovely English but her mother only speaks Greek. Both are warm & delightful.
The kayaking took us close to towering cliffs and beaches too. We even got to slip into a couple sea caves!
At one point she guided us to a quiet tiny harbor where we landed our boats. Here we donned our snorkeling gear and swam around looking thru the very clear water at the underwater rocks and a variety of fish.
While we were snorkeling Kaliope set up a truly amazing lunch for us. Greek salad, eggplant dip, spinach pies and cheese pies. All hand made by mama Maria! Wow - it was excellent.
A bit if climbing up a stairway in the rocks took us up for beautiful views.
We kayaked back stopping at an even deeper sea cave. When we arrived at Kaliope's home Maria had wine for us all. Wow (again) thus was a great day
Thanks Kaliope

What a fantastic day!! I was only in Santorini for 3 days -really only 2 without travel-& i know there were many choices (sightseeing historic spots, charming villages, beach, catamarans etc) -but as a lifelong traveler I KNOW the 5 +hours i spent with Kalliopi & her terrific niece Evvie in the clearest water, most fantastic scenic cliffs, rock formations, caves & tunnels, will be moments I’ll remember forever -far more than any other way I’d have spent the day. They (& her mother when we gathered at the house & also helpful driver picking up & dropping off) think of everything & our entire group was so well cared for! I was traveling alone (& highly recommend whether you’re alone or a couple or group). I don’t know if this would be typical, or if i just got incredibly lucky-but showing up as a solo traveler-with probably at least 20 years on most of the young fit couples in the other tandem kayaks- it was a great surprise to hear Evvie, a competitive teen kayaker, would be paddling with me! I still felt like got all the kayaking activity in that i wanted (& felt it at the end of the day!) -but also never had to worry about keeping up with group.
From a safety standpoint, I felt supremely confident in team each moment. The sea was like glass the day i went, but had waves been rougher i know we’d have been in good hands too.
My only regret was not remembering to mention my food allergies (which was my own stupidity because i am allergic to tomatoes & of course know they’d be in most meals-esp Greek)- yet there was so much lunch i still couldn’t even finish what was graciously (& deliciously) provided. (But do mention if you have because i know they’d have tried to accommodate.).
The extra touch to have beautiful photos Kalliopi took was just wonderful also. All in all a perfect experience!
