Sea Kayaking Adventure
An Adventure Mixed With Old Fashioned Way of Life
Sea kayaking in Croatia doesn’t get much better than this. In eight days you will visit five small islands of the Sibenik Archipelago. You will swim in the clear waters of the Adriatic, enjoy the stunning sunsets, meet the locals, and completely recharge and reboot yourself. Without a doubt, you will end our Croatia Sea Kayaking Adventure Trip with lifetime memories.
Croatia Sea kayaking Adventure trip
The trip is designed for flexible, energetic people who like to be active, have an adventurous spirit and a positive attitude. You will paddle about 25 km (15,5 mi) per day, but the schedule is very weather dependent.
The islands you are going to visit are Prvic, Zlarin, Kaprije, Kakan and Zirje. They will show you that Mediterranean as it once was, actually, still exists – most of them are car-free! And their total population is around 1000.
After a great week on the Croatia Sea Kayaking Adventure trip, you might consider extending your stay. Check out our other trips below, which you can add pre or post your main Croatia Sea Kayaking Adventure trip.
