The Adriatic Sea has a lot to offer: one of its highlights are definitely the many small islands, which are best explored by kayak. This private kayak tour from Zlarin offers you the perfect opportunity to have unforgettable experiences with one of our experienced guides and your friends or family members. Depending on whether you prefer cliff diving, hiking or snorkeling, the tour can be flexibly adapted to you and your abilities and preferences as the guide will be exclusively for you and your friends or family. However, we recommend that you do not miss the islands of Sokol, Zmajan, Tjat and Privić!
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.
- Tour:Once you feel comfortable in your kayak and with paddling, we
start our tour from Zlarin. The private guide will arrange to include your personal preferences in the tour. Usually, 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.
