Then we will make our way to the picturesque island of Meganisi and discover numerous sheltered coves. Paddling along the lush coastline, we will arrive in the pebbled beach of Agios Ioannis, where we set up camp and prepare a delicious bbq, with all sorts of Mediterranean delicacies. We will enjoy these unique moments in nature and dream of tomorrow’s adventures into our comfy tents.
