点评:Dangerous!!!
I cannot stress this enough: avoid Meriados for your own safety.
We rented a two-person sea canoe yesterday from the Meriados Watersports station on Agios Gordios beach at 4pm (€50 for two hours). The staff gave us basic instructions but no lifejackets. Within minutes the canoe began taking on water. It eventually sank and capsized, throwing our belongings into the sea (5m depth). We managed to recover a bag by diving to our absolute limit.
We attempted to continue but the canoe was already half sunk and capsized again. With no help from staff (who weren’t even watching), we had no choice but to swim for over 40 minutes, pushing the canoe back to shore. We are strong swimmers, but if we hadn’t been this could have ended very badly.
Back on the beach, the staff looked surprised and casually asked if we were “okay” with a thumbs up. When they drained the canoe, water poured out for over five minutes. From their reaction, it was clear something had been wrong with the boat beforehand and it should never have been rented out. No apology, no refund, just the two of them checking the canoe and speaking in Greek.
This was a terrifying experience, and we are still shaken. If you are with children, teenagers, or if you are not a very strong swimmer, please avoid Meriados Watersports, it is unsafe and could be life-threatening. The Greek lady who runs our accommodation said we should have called the police to report them, but shocked at the time we hadn’t.

我再强调一遍:为了您的安全,千万别去梅里亚多斯。
昨天下午4点,我们在阿吉奥斯·戈迪奥斯海滩的梅里亚多斯水上运动中心租了一艘双人独木舟(两小时50欧元)。工作人员给了我们一些基本的指导,但没有救生衣。几分钟后,独木舟就开始进水。它最终沉没倾覆,我们的行李也掉进了海里(水深5米)。我们潜水到极限,才打捞到一个包。
我们试图继续游,但独木舟已经半沉半沉,又翻了。没有工作人员的帮助(他们甚至都没在旁边看着),我们只好游了40多分钟,把独木舟推回岸边。我们游泳技术很好,但如果我们没游泳,后果可能很糟糕。
回到海滩上,工作人员看起来很惊讶,漫不经心地竖起大拇指问我们“还好吗”。当他们把独木舟里的水排干时,水涌了五分钟多。从他们的反应来看,这艘船显然事先就出了问题,根本不应该租出去。没有道歉,没有退款,只有他们两个人检查独木舟,还用希腊语说了几句话。
这真是一次可怕的经历,我们至今仍心有余悸。如果您带着孩子、青少年,或者您游泳技术不太好,请避开Meriados水上运动中心,那里不安全,可能会危及生命。负责我们住宿的希腊女士说我们应该报警,但我们当时没有报警,这让我们很震惊。
