About this experience
The tour starts at the beautiful, sandy beach of Kalandos! After an equipment check and safety briefing by your certified guide, you’ll be ready to go! You’ll be paddling a distance of about 9 km. Along the way, the view from the neighboring Cycladic islands is breathtaking! You will paddle among awesome geological formations along the coastline, make stops at tiny sea coves, until you reach the most impressive of them all: Rhina Cave with its ceiling of miniature stalactites and its inviting beach nearby! Rhina Cave’s pristine, secluded beach invites you to relax. We'll make a stop at the beach for about 30-40 min. Your guide will prepare for you delicious snacks. All you have to do is just sit back and enjoy, or swim, snorkel and explore the rich marine life of the area! Then back to our kayaks to head back to the starting point at Kalandos Beach. End the tour with a delicious traditional (optional) meal at the local taverna.

Well worth it!
Guides were fun and funny! Great history and geography lessons throughout. Kayaking was simple and easy, snorkeling was a treat ... Great way to experience Naxos

Rhina cave sea kayaking - fantastic experience!
We had a really great time on the Rhina cave sea kayaking tour with Nick & David! They were really friendly and well-prepared, made sure we knew everything we needed for kayaking in the sea, were fun and supportive and explained to us lots of interesting things about the island, its nature, history and even mythology. The kayaking tour was beautiful and not too difficult, the cave was awesome and we really enjoyed the swimming and snorkelling in the bay. Nick also took lots of pictures with his waterproof camera throughout the experience, and emailed them to us afterwards so we have something to remember it with! I would mention that you have to get up a little bit early in the morning to make it to the meeting point in time for the start, but in the end it was totally worth it because we had the place to ourselves and as soon as we were getting ready to leave some huge boats started to arrive with hundreds of tourists, so it would have been a lot less enjoyable sharing the bay with all of them! I would 100% recommend this trip and Trekking Hellas, we had a fantastic day. Thanks! Vlad & Caroline

Sea Kayaking - Awesome
Five out of Five. Nic was an amazing guide. The route we took was not only really beautiful with crystal clear waters but Nic also taught us about the history and genuinely interesting parts of Naxos. We stopped at a small beach where we snorkelled and did a small cliff jump. Overall, an amazing experience

Amazing experience on the kayaking tour, definitely a highlight of our trip
We had a wonderful time with Nikos and Nektarios! The kayaking tour to Rhina Cave and snorkeling was a highlight of our trip. The cave was a hidden gem with the bluest water. The whole day was a great adventure and a family favorite. Definitely recommend this experience while visiting Naxos!

More Than a Kayaking Tour—A Journey Through Naxos
Had an amazing kayaking experience with «Trekking Hellas Naxos» in Apollonas area (relocated for better weather conditions and totally paid off). Even though I am from Naxos, I discovered and learned so many fascinating things about my own island during this tour. Nikos and Nektarios were outstanding guides. As a complete beginner who had never tried kayaking before, I felt safe and confident throughout the entire trip. They explained the paddling techniques clearly and patiently, making the experience enjoyable from the very beginning. The scenery was breathtaking, and I learned a lot about the history, mythology, and local culture of Naxos. One of the highlights was the delicious picnic they prepared, with energy-boosting snacks and excellent local products that gave us a real taste of the island. I was so impressed that I also joined their Riverbank Adventure hiking tour, which was equally well organized and enjoyable. I highly recommend Trekking Hellas Naxos to anyone visiting the island. Whether you are a beginner or experienced, their professionalism, knowledge, and passion make for an unforgettable experience.

Why this scores 86
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Naxos.
How much does Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Naxos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Naxos is not rushed.
Is Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 105 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Naxos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour?
+
Around 37 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Naxos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Naxos and add a light layer if any part of the 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Naxos: Rhina Cave Sea Kayaking Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Naxos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Naxos?
+
On Outty we rank every Naxos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Naxos:Half-day cooking class at Basiliko Farm, Naxos Perivoli Farm Experience & Wood-fire Cooking Class, Naxos Kayak Tour to Rina Cave with Snorkeling and Homemade lunch. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Naxos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Naxos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
