For the opening of the kayaking season we have prepared for you an unforgettable adventure around Ammouliani Island. Most events around the island involve camping on the mainland with tours to the island in order to offer a lower price, but we will offer you a different experience. We will take a ferry to the island and camp right on the beach. In this way we will fully enjoy this small, exotic island located between the second and third arms (Sithonia and Mount Athos) of the Chalkidiki peninsula. The coast near the campsite offers spectacular landscapes, sandy beaches, numerous rock formations, hidden small beaches and fascinating snorkeling spots.

PROGRAM:
Day 1: 29 April 2023, Saturday
- Early departure from Vasil Levski Stadium in the direction of Uranupoli. On arrival we will make a transfer to the island by the first available ferry. We dock in the capital, where you will have an hour for a short walk, then we head to the campsite. We set up our tents and prepare for our adventure with a detailed briefing and team formation, then take an exploratory kayak trip to nearby beaches.
We will be on the water for about 5 hours that day, covering about 10 km with breaks for beach time.
At dusk we return to the campsite.

Day 2: 30 April 2023, Sunday
- After a hearty breakfast, coffee and pancakes prepared for the participants by our team, and making sandwiches for the day, we put the kayaks on the water. This time we will take a tour of the island, and enjoy the sandy beaches during breaks. For the diving enthusiasts, the underwater rocks have prepared surprises with their colonies of inhabitants.
The paddle that day is about 18 km with four breaks.
In the evening after returning to the pleasant atmosphere of the campsite we will prepare the barbecue, and only the fantasies and skills of everyone in the company are the limits that define the culinary delights that await us.
