Kayaking weekend in Croatia

How this holiday makes a difference

We support the slogan: Help Us Keep the Adriatic Clean.Our guides emphasize on the importance of leaving the environment as it is. We observe marine life but we do not disturb it. We direct our travelers to local private accommodation providers. Overnight in private accommodation enhances the visitors’ experience, since they get an opportunity to be welcomed by a local host and thus get better insight in everyday life of local people on Croatian islands.

Also, in this way our travelers are contributing to the local economy. While kayaking we stop for lunch in local restaurants. Thus the guests have an opportunity to taste some of the typical specialties of the region and at the same time help local economy. Food in the local restaurants that we visit during our sea kayaking trips is produced organically where possible. Those are family owned restaurants that are supplied with fresh fish from local fishermen and vegetables from local farmers.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


Fearing that another person was going to drown because they had not been instructed on how to remove a spray deck.

If you want more than just the sun, the Outer Hebrides are much better.

Basic and overpriced.

Read the operator's response here:

Your time and suggestions that will help us improve the sea kayaking tour are greatly appreciated. We do regret that your expectations were not fulfilled this time. We have been listening to suggestions and recommendations of our guests for seven years, since we were founded. Our guide reported that he normally gives instructions to the group or else individually while kayakers are getting into the kayak and that he is near, ready to assist all the time.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


Dusk, every night would be the most memorable – tucking into a well-deserved evening meal, with aching arms and mildly sunburnt hands, overlooking the sea as surrounding lush-green islands disappear with the sun. The most exciting would either be snorkelling for the first time and swimming with the fish (and particularly aggressive sea urchins) or when the sea got quite choppy and waves were breaking on my kayak!

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?


To take a hat and a camera (neither of which I did and regretted it). And make sure you spend some time exploring Old Town in Dubrovnik – especially at night.

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?


One of the Islands we kayaked to doesn’t have cars or roads so it was definitely doing its own bit for the environment – any way their economy can be boosted but not damaged by tourism is great, and that’s what we did. Arriving on man-powered boats, very thirsty for beer and cocktails for a start!

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?


Very highly. Every Croatian person I met, especially from the operator, was so friendly, which was very important as I was travelling alone. That and the breath-taking scenery made my holiday. I also couldn’t have asked for a better kayaking tour guide.
