Kayaking is the best way to get to remote Fakistra beach & explore in detail its sea caves & the pristine coastline between Damouchari & Fakistra... interacting with wild Pelion coastal nature, without the noise of a motor boat. The tour is family friendly, addressed to experience-seekers & nature lovers of any age who know how to swim. No previous experience is needed. Double & single kayaks are very stable & sea-worthy. Only basic fit condition is required, as it is the right distance that everyone can do. The idea is recreation. We go slowly stopping multiple times for swimming & relaxing. Scenery is so variable that doesn't let any participant (kids, teenagers or grown-ups) feel bored......

Damouhari port
We spend plenty of time on the old harbor of Damouchari, as this is the starting and ending point of our tour. Place of great historical importance and where Mamma Mia movie has been filmed. We give all guiding about the history, the old Venetian castle and the use of the harbor before tourism.

After paddling a couple of kilometers along a spectacular, rocky, natural coastline and having stopped at a hidden wild bay full of fresh water springs, that used to be an old partisans' refuge, we get to the sea cave of Panagia Megalomata. The cave is impressive. Large entrance connected to the open sea, stalactites, stalagmites, birds, colorful rocks, tall and bright interior giving enough room for multiple kayaks. Inside this mystical atmosphere the guide is explaining you all the story of the "hidden school" of Tsagkarada, located on the cliff right above the cave, together with information about social and economic activity during the ottoman and pre-tourism era.

Paralia Fakistra
After visiting by kayak more sea caves and huge vertical cliffs outside Fakistra bay, we land on Fakistra... a pristine beach only accessible on foot or by boat... one of the highlights of East Pelion, where we spend about an hour swimming and having picnic (included).
