Sea Caves Kayaking and Snorkeling Tour at Cape Greco, Ayia Napa

This 5-hour guided tour suits kayakers under 100 kg, combining kayaking and snorkeling along the rocky coast of Cape Greco, Ayia Napa.

Description

The tour starts at Limnara Beach and follows an eastward route to Cape Greco Sea Caves Cove. Participants kayak along a rocky coastline with clear light blue waters and explore several rock formations and coves. The main highlight is the Sea Caves Cove, locally called 'Palaces' for its grand cave entrances. While kayaks cannot enter the shallow caves, the surrounding views are impressive. Depending on conditions and group ability, the route may extend further east to additional coves and formations before returning to Limnara Beach.

During calm sea conditions, the tour includes about one hour of snorkeling at Glyky Nero beach and inside a couple of sea caves, including the 'Dome' and the 'Blue Cave.' Participants also snorkel under the natural rocky arch known as Lover's Bridge. Snorkeling equipment is provided free of charge. The guide carries a large buoy to alert nearby boats for safety.

This trip operates seasonally from May 15 to October 31. Entry to the Ayia Napa Sea Caves is forbidden in the colder months to protect the endangered Mediterranean Monk Seal. During this period, snorkeling is replaced by swimming along the kayaking route or opting for a shorter 3-hour kayak trip. In case of choppy waters at the south coast, the tour changes to kayaking and snorkeling at Green Bay and Fig Tree Bay on the east coast. If sea conditions are unsafe at both locations, the trip will be cancelled.
