Locations de vacances : Fournados

We set off from Kissamos and head towards Falassarna, on the West coast. We'll give you a short history of the area, which was one of the 3 most important city states in Hellenistic times. A short walk away from the site of the ancient city is the sunken wreck of a WW2 transport ship. We'll show you the way to a small cove - about 20 minutes walking on a rocky path - then we’ll snorkel out to the wreck. You’ll be able to swim around and explore it to your hearts content. The wreck lies in surprisingly shallow waters, making this fascinating site accessible without scuba equipment. We'll have a quick snack at the beach after swimming, then walk back to the car and head back to Kissamos. We can do this experience any morning during the summer months (May to October). If no availability is shown on your preferred day please message us to inquire about booking. We also offer other experiences such as nature hikes (gorges & coastal), e-bike rental & tours, kayak day excursions, cultural excursions and other swimming/snorkelling tours. You can find more details on our site - Fit in Crete - or contact me! Other things to note This experience is weather dependent and will only go ahead if weather conditions allow. You need to be able to swim 200m confidently and have some experience of snorkelling. If you haven't snorkelled before, please look at our "Discover snorkelling in Crete" experience.

The event will take place in my small house yard, under the olive trees in a small garden. A traditional greek music concert will take place. Rebetiko and popular songs will be heard also. Guests will have the opportunity to learn a few things about the history and evolution of Greek music. They can also ask for favorite songs and why not sing with the performers. Other things to note The style of music that will be performed, will be discussed and decided on time.

We meet in Kissamos, where we'll get you acquainted with our electric MTBs. Then we ride through scenic backroads to the village of Polyrrinia, admiring some amazing views as we pass through small hamlets and olive groves. With the electric motor assisting your pedaling even the hilly sections are a breeze! Once we get up to Polyrrinia we can stop at a local cafe for a drink, then you have free time to explore the village. Polyrrinia was a strong town in antiquity, easily understood when we see its position perched on top of a commanding hill. We park the bikes and explore the narrow alleys and the historical ruins of aqueducts and rock cut houses. We can do this experience any morning during the summer months (May to October). Please send a message to inquire about booking. We also offer simple e-bike rentals per day & other guided e-bike tours as well as nature hikes (gorges & coastal), kayak day trips, cultural excursions and swimming/snorkelling tours.

Trousers should be tight at the ankle (leggings) or shorter length (3/4 length or shorts) so that you can cycle without getting them caught in the pedals/cogs. Bring water, suncream etc. A small backpack that you can wear while cycling is also useful.

We meet in Kissamos and drive a short distance to Falassarna, on the West coast, where we'll launch the kayaks.

There are also various opportunities to jump in the water to explore under the surface with a snorkel & mask.
