Highlights

This isn’t a rushed sightseeing trip or a kayak rental. It’s a full-day experience that blends sea kayaking, local history, swimming, and authentic Mediterranean hospitality at a relaxed pace. Paddle through the crystal-clear waters of Kekova, explore the ancient harbor of Xera, and glide above the famous Sunken City while your guide shares stories of Lycian civilization, local wildlife, and life along this remarkable coastline. Swim in secluded bays that larger boats can’t reach before enjoying a freshly prepared Mediterranean lunch made with seasonal local ingredients. Small groups and experienced local guides create a relaxed, personal atmosphere. Whether it’s your first time in a kayak or you’ve paddled for years, we keep our pace relaxed and give you the time to enjoy one of the Mediterranean’s most beautiful coastlines.

  • 5Really recommend

    We were a party of five. Barbie was a fantastic guide, explaining both the Lycian history and nature in the area, with great humour. The kayaking was great fun and the whole organisation was excellent

  • 5The best way to explore the ruins

    Phenomenal, Barbarossa was really supportive, enthusiastic and informative the entire way through. We actually stopped and explored the ruins while Barb told us the history and mythology of the place. Plenty of free time and a much better pace than the other groups 10/10 would recommend

  • 5Kayak Tour as Solo Traveler in the beautiful area of Kekova

    I stayed in Kekova and wanted to do the Kayak Tour. I found this operator and as I support small businesses and also prefer to book directly we arranged a tour next day. The tour included all equipment and lunch, drinks extra. He explained us detailed how to use the Kayak, helped us to adjust and it was a beautiful experience. The sea was very calm & quiet. It was not too hot not too cold. I can definitely recommend it and as well the area is stunning beautiful. If you are in the area, try it out. It is way more detailed and personal than a bif boot tour. From a fitness level it is okay as there are some stops and breaks. Food was also delicious.
