The sea greets you like a slow-moving road: glassy in the morning, edged with wind-creased ripples by noon. You launch from Drymades Beach onto a wide, shallow stretch of the Ionian, the 16‑ft monster SUP carrying your group toward cliffs that push their limestone faces into the water and small caves that seem to whisper when the tide slips by.

Wildlife
History
The southern Ionian coast was part of ancient trade routes; villages above the beaches show a mix of Balkan and Mediterranean influences in architecture and food.
Conservation
Keep a hands-off policy with wildlife, use reef-safe sunscreen, and avoid leaving any plastic on beaches—coastal areas here are sensitive and recovering from tourism pressures.

Hydration minimum
Carry at least 1.5 liters of water per person and sip regularly—sun and salt dehydrate faster than you think.
Sun protection
Use reef-safe sunscreen, a brimmed hat, and polarized sunglasses; sun reflects strongly off the water.
Footwear for rocky entries
Wear lightweight beach shoes for getting on/off at shingle or rock beaches to avoid cuts and better grip wet surfaces.
Watch the wind window
Check local wind forecasts before launch—morning sessions are usually calmer and safer for beginners.
Personal flotation device (PFD)
Essential safety equipment provided but bring a preferred fit or request one if you need a specific size.
Reusable water bottle (1.5 L+)
Keeps you hydrated on the water; refill between stops if possible.
