Abseiling, Kayaking with Berny Woodward
Sun 30 Jun - Sun 22 Sep
Abseiling
Take up the challenge and experience abseiling in the stunning scenery and nature of Atsitsa.
Berny offers a Greek experience with a difference! From a basic, beginners abseil, to the amazing experiences of tackling sea cliffs, mineshafts and the possible ultimate experience of abseiling directly into the warm, blue sea!
Whether with previous experience or a complete novice, here's the opportunity to challenge yourself and achieve the satisfaction of "safely" defying gravity, in a shared, group experience with a very experienced instructor who offers adventure, camaraderie and a diversity of ways to overcome your fears, both actual and analogous.
Return back to the UK with spectacular photos and memories of the unique experience of an abseil in the sun!
Kayaking
Berny 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.
Berny has years of experience working in RAF Outdoor Centres as a Wild Water, Open Canadian, Sea Kayaker and Surf Canoeist in past years, involving canoeing all over the UK and in the Far East.
