About this experience
If you like to sail with local traditional boats and enjoy the endless blue of the beautiful Adriatic Sea and you are not too big a fan of mass tourism, then this is the best option for you. After only 40 minutes by boat from the port of Punat in the direction of Stara Baška, are the most beautiful bays and beaches in the whole northern Adriatic Sea. Swimming and snorkeling in the perfectly clear sea will give you the feeling of absolute freedom in this wonderful wilderness.
The second largest uninhabited island in Croatia, with its many natural attractions, is desirable for those who want a little more action.
You will see vultures, the largest birds in Europe, with a wingspan larger than 2.5 meters. You will swim in the narrow passage between the rocks to find Shogy secret beach and the Love cave.
You will enjoy bays and beaches of untouched nature, and maybe we will meet dolphins.
