What this video covers
The crew of Oceanaire | Wik & Rox sails the western coast of the Peloponnese, Greece, stopping at Kiparishia, Maratopoli, Proti Island, and Pilos. After encountering a confused sea state and two-meter swells during a 30-mile passage from Katakolo to Kiparishia, the crew anchors in the Kiparishia harbor, which offers free mooring but lacks facilities beyond a single water tap on the northern pier.4:19 Near Maratopoli, they hike to the Neda waterfalls, noting that the site dries out by June, making it inaccessible for swimming in late summer.4:55 Off Proti Island, the crew snorkels a World War II merchant shipwreck, warning of venomous, non-native lionfish that require population control.8:11 In Pilos, they explore the Navarino Fortress and Nestor’s Cave, part of a regional cultural route connecting 48 historical sites.18:38 The crew also tests the Hoverair Aqua, a waterproof, self-flying camera capable of maneuvering on the water surface in "float mode."16:48
