4.Santorini: Sea Caves Kayak Trip with Snorkeling and Picnic

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 311 reviews · 7 hours · from $159

Spend seven active hours with Kalliopi and the Serenity Kayak team along Santorini’s south coast. Paddle past Akrotiri, enter blue-lit sea caves, snorkel by Black Mountain, and cliff jump at White Beach. Pickup, equipment, towels, sun hats, photos, and a homemade local picnic are included. No kayaking experience is needed, but you must swim and handle a full day on the water.

“This was a super unique experience, I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys kayaking. You go up the coast line of Santorini and are able to see angles that you wouldn’t normally get to see. We saw a black, white, and red beach. Taking a kayak into the caves is a one of a kind experience as well. The food prepared was done beautifully and tasted amazing! This is the only snorkeling activity that we were actually able to see fish and sea life. The tour guide does a very good job accommodating everyone in the group, I wouldn’t definitely recommend!”
