Day 1

Tips from local experts:
- Confirm your hotel name or exact meeting point in advance so pickup is efficient.
- Be ready 5–10 minutes before the scheduled pickup time to keep the group on schedule.
- If anyone has reduced mobility, tell us in advance so we can plan seating and the smoothest access.
Welcome cocktail at Perissa Beach

Tips from local experts:
- Perissa Beach has black volcanic sand — bring sandals or water shoes if you plan to walk on the shore.
- Sunscreen and a hat are recommended; the beach is exposed with limited shade in mid-afternoon.
- If you plan a quick swim, bring a towel and a change of clothes; drying facilities are not provided by the activity.

Tips from local experts:
- The road between Perissa and Exo Gonia includes winding sections — if prone to motion sickness, plan accordingly.
- Keep a small personal bag with essentials (camera, phone, water); the vehicle will be brief and luggage space limited.
- We will aim to keep transfers direct; please remain with the group at the agreed pickup point on Perissa Beach.

Tips from local experts:
- Tell us any dietary restrictions or allergies at booking so the chef can prepare appropriate vegetarian or allergy-safe dishes.
