Presentation Description: Nathan Moody and Krista Fechner will share their experiences paddling in the Aegean Sea around the island of Milos (with fellow BASKers Brian Alger and Lisa Rohe). They enjoyed warm turquoise waters, innumerable caves, stunning rock features, and scrumptious food on a guided trip with Sea Kayak Milos. They'll discuss the factors, focusing on history and geology, that make Milos a fantastic paddling destination suitable for paddlers of all skill levels.
Nathan and Krista are BASK Skills Clinic grads from 2011 and have been volunteering with the Clinic and many other aspects of BASK ever since.
