With our experienced guide, Mladen, you will spend a day on the water. Outdoor activities, the sea, and kayaking are his passions, so he knows all there is to know about the area! And there's plenty of time for exciting stops on the many islands off the coast of Šibenik. Are you ready for a dare? Then try cliff diving on Sokol! For those who are not hunting adrenaline-fuelled activities, there are great spots for snorkeling and swimming or even hiking. Amazing photo opportunities are guaranteed!
Tour programme- Preparation:
We will meet at our base in Zlarin 15 minutes before the start of our tour. If your accommodation is in Šibenik, you can take the ferry to Zlarin, as it is right next to the marina. As soon as you arrive, we start with the preparation. We put a lot of emphasis on safety, so before we go out on the water together, you will get a briefing on how to handle the kayak and the paddle, as well as safety on sea. We also distribute the water bottles and snacks. In our small group, up to a maximum of 14 people, you can quickly get to know the other participants.
- Tour:
Once you feel comfortable in your kayak and with paddling, we start our tour from Zlarin. We set off from the marina at a relaxed pace to the island of Sokol. This small, uninhabited island is not only popular for snorkeling and swimming spots, but also for cliff jumping. So if you are brave enough, you can do a few jumps into the water here while we make our first stop. Next on our itinerary are the islands of Zmajan and Tijat. Both islands are a treasure for nature lovers: singing birds on land and colourful fish in the water. Whether you choose to use this stop for hiking or snorkelling, wonderful experiences in nature are guaranteed! And those who are a little exhausted from paddling can simply relax on the beach in the sun and listen to the sound of the sea while having lunch. We then continue with our kayaks to the island of Prvić. This is famous for the inventor of the parachute, Faust Vrančić, who lived here in the 16th century. During our stop, you can follow in his footsteps through the streets of Prvić Luka and visit the Faust Vrančić memorial centre. Afterwards, we get back into our kayaks for the last time, gather our strength and head back to Zlarin.
- Return:
After 3.5 to 4 hours of easy paddling on the sea we reach our base again at the marina in Zlarin.
