Amazing Greece: Kefalonia & Ithaka Expedition 29 August-06 Sept 2026

440.00660.00

A true sea-kayaking journey: personal challenge, teamwork, and a full reset in nature. Eight days on one of the Ionian Sea’s most spectacular coastlines.

Why Kefalonia

Kefalonia has been one of our long-time favourites. It’s never been crowded, and by sea kayak its remote coastline feels like stepping into an older, timeless Greece. This expedition brings together three of the island’s most iconic areas into one route:

• The wild Paliki Peninsula
• The brilliant blue Myrtos Bay
• The peaceful fishing villages of Ithaka

What to Expect

This is a nomadic tour:
– 2 nights in campgrounds
– 6 nights wild-camping on remote beaches under a star-filled sky

Accommodation costs stay minimal, and the experience stays authentic.


For your safety and to give you the attention you deserve, our tours are always small group tours.

In this case, the ideal group size is 10 people plus two experienced, British Canoeing–certified SKL/ASKL tour leaders.


This is an intermediate to advanced sea kayaking tour. The tour is enjoyable and safe for kayakers with some experience on sea or whitewater, who paddle regularly during the season and are fit to paddle 20+ km/day for 7 days. If you don’t have this experience or fitness, you can probably still get there by the time of this tour. We are here to prepare you, so let’s talk!

The Route — Highlights

The west-facing coast of Kefalonia offers cliffs, caves and endless white beaches. Days unfold in peaceful rhythm; nights are spent in quiet coves unreachable by land.

From Paliki, we head to Myrtos Bay, exploring bright limestone cliffs and hidden inlets, and visit the fairytale-like village of Assos.
We continue north past Fiscardo, cross to Ithaka, and glide into its cosy harbours where kayaks almost reach the tavernas themselves.
A final crossing brings us back to Kefalonia — ending with a well-earned Greek feast.


Travel

Kefalonia is reachable by ferry from Lefkada or Zakynthos.
Its steep, remote coastline naturally limits mass tourism — perfect for those who love quieter, cleaner, more authentic places.

If your flight departs the next day, we’ll bring you to the airport.

Thank you for choosing Explorers.

Fine print:

The program will be held with a minimum of 7 participants. Kayak canoe trips are nature-adapted, weather-defying, mostly pure joy, but sometimes a challenge. With the exception of sea tours, tours will only be cancelled and refunded in the event of an accident or extreme weather (storm, hail, etc.). In all other cases, e.g. sea tours, the weather is part of the discovery and we will have to adapt our plans. If the cancellation period has expired and you do not show up for the tour, the tour fee will not be refunded. Detailed cancellation conditions are set out in the GTC.


DATA PROTECTION

We will not share your data with anyone and will only use it for the safe execution of our water tours, in accordance with the Privacy Policy published on the explorerskayaking.com website.
