Melontaa Falassarnassa

ULKOILU - 1/2 PÄIVÄ Esteetön meriseikkailu turkoosissa vesissä. Lyhyt, upea merikajakkiretki Länsi-Kreetalla. Melomme Limpetin saarelle Falasarnan rannan edustalle sekä tutustumme matalikkoon uponneeseen alukseen toisen maailmansodan ajalta.  RETKIKUVAUS Lähdemme Kissamoksesta ja ajamme 20 minuuttia retken aloituspaikalle länsirannikolle, Falassarnan vaaleanpunaiselle hiekkarannalle. Vaihtoehtoisesti voimme tavata suoraan Falassarnassa, jotta voit viettää aikaa rannalla yhteisen aktiviteettimme jälkeen. Melomme turkoosilla vesillä lahden yli pienelle Limpetin saarelle. Navigoimme matalalla riutalla saaren muotoja mukaillen. Myöhemmin palaamme pääsaarelle tutkimaan toisen maailmansodan aikana matalikolle uponnutta liittoutuneiden kuljetusalusta. Paluureitti takaisin Falassarnan rannalle kulkee laajojen meriruohoniittyjen yli. Uimatauolla hyödynnämme kajakkien istuimet ja hyppäämme siniseen veteen. Snorklausvälineiden ansiosta pääsemme tarkastelemaan tarkemmin matalia riuttoja, haaksirikkoutunutta alusta, meriruohoniittyjä ja meren elämää. Lopuksi laskeudumme takaisin Falassarnan rannalle, sen pehmeälle vaaleanpunaiselle hietikolle sekä välipalalle tamariskipuiden varjoon. Kahvilassa voi myös nauttia virvokkeita ihaillen kaunista lahdelle avautuvaa maisemaa.   Melontaa: 1-2 tuntia Kokonaisaika: 4 tuntia Melontaetäisyys: 4-8 km Vaikeustaso: sopii kaikille Huom!
