The morning wind is gentle as you step from the pebble shore onto a board; the Aegean pulls and releases like a living thing, inviting you to paddle. From Stegna’s sheltered cove you’ll push past sheer limestone cliffs into waters that go from aquamarine to navy in a handful of strokes. Sea spray cools your sun-warmed skin while gulls cut lazy paths overhead.
