Select participants and date
The Jeep grunts away from the hotel strip before the town falls silent and the coast opens. Salt hits the air and limestone bluffs rise like old teeth, studded with beeches and thyme. By the time the vehicle spills you out at a windswept headland, Cape Greco has already claimed your attention: a raw, horizontal landscape of cliffs, carved arches and water so blue it seems to be lit from within.

Adventure Tips
Bring swim gear and towel
Konnos Bay is a scheduled swim stop — pack swimwear, towel and a dry bag for your phone.
Wear sturdy footwear
Coastal paths are uneven limestone with loose stones; closed-toe shoes with grip make short hikes and cliff viewpoints safer.
Protect against sun and salt
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses — shade is limited on headlands and the sun reflects strongly off the sea.
Follow guide instructions around cliffs
Local cliff-jumping is common but risky; only jump where your guide says it’s permitted and safe.

History
Cape Greco has long been a navigational landmark and a folk landscape — small chapels and fishing shrines mark centuries of coastal life.
Conservation
Much of the cape lies within a protected forest park; stay on marked paths, avoid disturbing seagrass beds and carry out all trash.
