Greece from a different angle.

Leave the road behind and take to the water.

Paddle between islands and along the wild Ionian coastline, carrying what you need and camping on remote beaches as the journey unfolds. Get involved with turtle conservation, then swap sea and shoreline for the ancient sites, stories and streets of mainland Greece.

It’s an adventure that moves — combining physical challenge, conservation and thousands of years of history in one brilliantly varied journey.

Sea. Stories. Shared challenge. Greece beyond the classroom.

Take to the Ionian Sea around Lefkada and neighbouring islands, paddling from one wild camp to the next. Learn about turtle conservation, then explore the history and culture of Athens and Korinthos. For schools wanting to extend the challenge, Crete and the spectacular Samaria Gorge can add another dimension to the journey.
