Overview

Your adventure begins at the stunning Moutsouna Beach, located on the eastern coast of Naxos. This quiet picturesque fishing village, once thrived as a bustling hub with a fascinating history and a key role in the island’s economy. High up in the mountains of Naxos, emery-a rare and valuable mineral-was mined and transported down to the village via an aerial cable car.

At Moutsouna’s port, the emery was loaded onto ships bound for Greece’s major ports. Learn all about the history and unique uses of this valuable mineral on the spot, and marvel at the aerial cable car as you head to Moutsouna Beach!

After a thorough equipment check and safety briefing by your certified guide, you’ll be ready to go! Paddle 9 km along Naxos’ stunning east coast. Along the way, be mesmerized by the crystal-clear blue-green waters as you uncover hidden coves, sea caves, natural arches, secluded beaches, and striking rock formations.

Pause at pristine, secluded beaches where you can unwind and embrace moments of pure tranquility away from it all. Your guide will prepare homemade snacks, giving you a delicious taste of Naxos’ local flavors and delicacies. Simply relax and soak in the moment, or dive into the crystal-clear waters to explore the vibrant marine life up close. Our certified guides will share with you their expertise on the region’s geography, geology, wildlife, and local insights.

Then, hop back into your kayak and make your way back to the starting point at Moutsouna Beach. Along the way, take in the breathtaking views of the neighboring Cycladic islands—they’re truly unforgettable!
