Once you've chosen the option that works best for you, your stand up paddling excursion in Lygaria Bay can begin! You'll need to arrive at the Eurodivers center, just off Ligaria Beach, at least 10 minutes before your activity is set to begin. There, you'll meet their dedicated team and, after a thorough safety and equipment briefing from an expert instructor, you'll step onto your SUP board, grab your paddle, put on your life jacket if you need it, and start exploring.
Some of the incredible views from northern Crete that you'll find on this SUP excursion in Ligaria Bay include crystal clear waters, rocky cliffs, and panoramic views of the Greek island, as well as views of different coves such as the Psaromoura or Mades Beach.
