  • Airsoft

    Discover airsoft with S.A.K. (Katerini Airsoft Club), with protective gear and strict safety rules.

    Airsoft

    Airsoft is a dynamic outdoor sport that combines strategy, teamwork, speed and elements of combat simulation, offering a special experience full of excitement and fun.

    Airsoft replicas look like real guns but are not firearms; they use special 6 mm pellets. The activity takes place with the necessary protective gear and strict observance of safety rules.

    Together with S.A.K. (Katerini Airsoft Club), we give you the chance to see the sport up close, learn more about its equipment and philosophy and, of course, test your skills!

    You don’t need to be an expert. All it takes is a taste for play, strategy and… a little sense of adventure!
