Top 3 November experiences

1. Golf in bright skies and ideal temperatures…

Costa Navarino offers the ideal conditions for golf, thanks to the good weather and the hours of sunshine during autumn to take advantage of and experience the two signature golf courses by the sea.

 

2. Biking picnic at Profitis Ilias

Discover the unspoiled countryside of Messinia though hiking and biking tours and enjoy delectable picnic with traditional fare from local ladies on a remote beach or a mountain peak at sunset. Share the same passion for physical exercise with plenty of fun and a positive attitude with experienced bike guides and taste local flavors.

 

3. Bird watching at Gialova lagoon

Gialova lagoon is a real bird paradise: more than 270 species of birds have been counted there as thousands of birds flying to Africa in autumn stop at the lagoon to rest and “refuel” for the last time before the long journey of 3,000 km over the Mediterranean Sea and the Sahara desert.

We recommend visiting the lagoon in the early morning hours. A couple of hours in the watch-tower of the lagoon are enough to observe most of its inhabitants, from the impressive eagles to the elusive bitterns, etc.

From October onwards one may observe the king of the lagoon: the Osprey. Purple Herons, Marsh and Pallid Harriers, most species of terns, most waders, including Common and Marsh Sandpipers, Dotterels, Spotted Redshanks, Avocets and many more also arrive in this period.
