Barbaros was an excellent instructor he was well knowledgeable about kekova and the islands. He was a fantastic teacher! It was my first time Kayaking and he was patient and supportive with me when I felt stressed at times. He provided so much guidance and encouragement! If there was only one thing to be approved it would be to have smaller kayaks maybe for different body weights so it’s easier to manage. Otherwise I had a really fun time exploring the beautiful Kekova !! 😍😍

What a great day all round. Barbie was the best guide! The knowledge he imparted was insightful and so interesting. From start to finish the day was well organised and lunch was great. Honestly, we had the best day and thoroughly recommend.
