Aegean Paddlers Sea Kayaking Kea

Site Content

About Kea

Kea is the closest to Athens Cycladic island and with a perimeter of 32 nautical miles is our perfect sea kayaking weekend / extended trip. 

Like most Cycladic islands, Kea is exposed from all sides and suitable only for trained, experienced and well equipped sea kayakers 

Northern winds are dominant for the bigger part of the year and only in the colder months will turn occasionally  southerly.

Underwater currents make waves bulge higher off the west coast and the wind / wave prone north coast has no safe exit for 5 n.m.

The island's coastline is rugged with over 100 sloping headlands and even more narrow and mid sized beaches hiding between them

The signs of the cataclysmic events that shaped Kea to it's present form are evident in the impressive rock formations all around the island.

Sea kayaking around Kea is an experience that words simply cannot do justice, you have to live it to believe it.


Apart from sea kayaking 

The island's recorded history spans over 5 millennia and is  rich in culture and nature.  

I note only Simonides from Kea (Keos), the famous poet who wrote the epigram for the deceased warriors of the battle of Thermopylae and the ancient temples of Apollo and Athena at Karthea bay.



Insight

 Weather forecasts are very accurate on a 3 day notice, that along with the one hour ferry ride that connects Lavrio and Kea daily makes planning sea kayaking trips to Kea very straightforward meaning  one knows exactly what to expect and is either up for it or not. Training and good judgement is all it takes to paddle around Kea safely.
