9.Stand Up Paddle Board in Sidari

★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 37 reviews · 1 hour · from $17Best value

Set out from Sidari on a one-hour private SUP session along Corfu’s west coast. An English- or Greek-speaking instructor explains how to sit, stand, and paddle, then you head toward the Canal d’Amour caves. No experience is needed, but the outing may be largely self-guided.

“La experiencia ha sido correcta porque yo ya sabia ir en paddle board y le he explicado lo poco que sabia a mi pareja. Nosotros pensabamos que ibamos a estar con un guia y ir al canal d’amour que indica en la actividad, pero solo nos explico como ir de rodillas y como leventarte en la tabla y te dejavan por libre, por 10€ encuentras el alquiler de la tabla en muchos sitios de excursiones de la zona. Es muy bonito ver el agua cristalina con el paddle board pero esperavamos otra cosa muy diferente a lo que anuncian.”
