- Technique and safety briefing on the beach.
- Paddle beneath the walls and Lovrijenac fortress.
- Short crossing to Lokrum island, a nature reserve.
- Stop at Betina cave, a small hidden beach, to swim and snorkel.
- Fruit or a sandwich, then back to the starting beach.
Who it is for
Beginners and active people; double kayaks are stable and the pace is moderate. Children from 8 years with an adult. You must be able to swim.
What to bring
- Swimwear, cap, sunglasses with a strap and sunscreen.
- Water shoes.
- Extra water on hot days.
Best time to go
