A choice of water sports

For those who seek a little more adventure than a causal swim and snorkel, Aghios Nikolaos offers a great selection of water sports and boat trips. Rent a canoe to explore the bays, scuba dive into the depths of the sea or stay in the dry comfort of the semi-submarine boat to see the colourful marine life.
