My name is Marcus. Go Kayak Greece was created out of a love for the sea and wilderness adventure. Having being born in London to an Irish Mother and a Greek father I was lucky enough to then spend my primary years in Greece, which meant I was able to grow up by the sea.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> 3 month long school summer holidays ensured that I became at home in the water! As an adult I ventured into the marine world by training and working in Scuba diving. As a Divemaster I had the pleasure of guiding people into the underwater world. Above the surface though my passion for wilderness living took me in another direction. One day, in an attempt to reach beaches untouched, I bought a small inflatable kayak. I put my gear inside, climbed in and never looked back. I was hooked. Years later and after extensive training both in Greece and back in the UK I was finally able to give life to Go Kayak Greece. I hope you will come and enjoy the experience with me.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4><strong>Kayaking qualifications<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><b>British Canoeing 4 Star Sea Kayak Guide<\/b><\/p>\n<p><strong>British Canoeing Level 3 Sea Kayak Coach<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Personal Performance Award Provider<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><b>FAA Level 2 Activity First Aid<\/b><\/p>\n<h4><b>Other qualifications<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><b>HND Business and Finance<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>PADI Divemaster\/CMAS 3 Star\/IANTD Nitrox Diver<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Offshore Sailing Skipper<\/b><\/p>\n<p><b>Powerboat Skipper<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi!
