Activities at Atsitsa Bay, Greece

Kayaking with Sam Shelley

Sat 30 - Fri 12 Sep 2025

Sam will be offering a basic canoeing experience using sit on canoes.

Courses will involve: 

• Safety Introductions
• Teaching of Basic Skills
• Consolidation of Skills

The latter will then enable short, coastal trips to be undertaken to such places as Horseshoe Bay, Island canoeing and a trip to Cooknara, (coffee and cake for those in need!). All canoeing will be weather dependant.

This is another stunning way to experience the beauty and 'aquatic' nature of the Greek Odyssey that is Atsitsa, enjoying the Aegean Sea and sun whilst journeying on simple, sit on canoes. Yet another way for adults and children to build unforgettable memories, under the supervision of experienced instructors, who have your safety and enjoyment, as paramount in their care.

What's included?

Sam's course is held in Atsitsa Bay on Skyros island in Greece and is part of the wide range of courses and activities available. The holiday includes full board twin shared accommodation in an eco-hut.
