A perfect day out in Sivota
Highly recommend. Chilled pace. Visited all the islets. Snacks provided for lunch were great. Water was amazing. Lovely and warm and so clear.

Brilliant trip
We should have arrived as a couple but my wife was ill on the day, so Chrysanthi soon made made arrangements for me to kayak. We were given easy to follow instructions before setting off and so a small group of us paddled around the nearby small islands through crystal clear waters - the sea was lovely and warm in September. There were two stops for snorkelling and on one of the stops we experienced thousands of small silver fish in large shoals - wonderful. We kayaked into caves and through a small arch. Chrysanthi was really informative, answering all questions and she sent us lots of photos the following day. Lunch was a feta cheese, tomato and pepper sandwich, along with melon. There is room withing the kayak for a small amount of belonging to keep dry. Altogether it was a great trip.

Fabulous kayak experience
We had a fantastic kayak experience with Chrisanthi. Very knowledgeable and professional guide, who made us feel at ease so we could enjoy the fantastic scenery and have a relaxing time. Went over and above to accommodate us due to the bad weather on originally booked date. Tasty sandwich and melon for lunch, just right after a morning paddling. Would definitely recommend this trip if you want to something a bit different and see parts of the small islands you wouldn’t see any other way.

A must do experience

Why this scores 84
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Corfu.
How much does Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) cost?
+
Prices start at $86 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Corfu usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) take?
+
Plan for about 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 Corfu is not rushed.
Is Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Corfu, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus)?
+
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 Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus)?
+
Around 19 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 Corfu 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 Corfu and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) 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 Corfu 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 Corfu?
+
On Outty we rank every Corfu experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Small-Group Food and Cultural Tour in Corfu, Full Day Cruise from Corfu in Classic Wooden Vessel, Swim & BBQ, Paxos Antipaxos and Blue Lagoon Full Day Semi-Private Cruise. 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 Corfu?
+
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 Corfu?
+
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.
What is included in Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus)?
+
Included: Bottled water; Certified sea kayak guide (BCU); All necessary sea kayaking equipment; Use of snorkeling equipment; and Snacks. Not included: Private transportation. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus)?
+
Small beach beside "Filakas rent a boat" Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Sea Kayaking at Sivota Islets and Blue Lagoon (Epirus) offered in?
+
It is offered in Greek and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
