September, full on!

Summer is coming to an end, but here in North of Greece we keep our sunglasses and carry on.
Autumn is the best opportunity to get some vitamin D before winter, and our region is full of outdoor activities. We tested – and tasted – some of them along with our groups, and found out September was our new favorite month!
Kayak on Nestos River
We left early from Thessaloniki so that we would arrive at Nestos River (close to Xanthi) on time to start paddling. And it was all worth it.
First, Riverland’s dynamic team spread its enthusiasm among the group and gave us a quick demo on how to paddle and safety rules. Don’t laugh, some of us had quite a hard time picking up the moves (and I’m not talking about children). As soon as we got on the water, we all went off in a happy, messy order.
The landscape changes spectacularly around each turn of the river, wildlife is ever-present, and cherry on the cake: our guides were taking photographs so that we could truly enjoy (and for some of us, paddle hard).
The brave ones had a chance to swim in the crystal-clear, very fresh water, when we stopped for coffee and a picnic. Others preferred sunbathing, or exploring the shores (and picking figs for desert).
As the sun was setting, we all arrived exhausted but our heads full of images, promising ourselves we would repeat the experience soon!
