What you'll see

Meet your guide in central Dubrovnik at 9:15 am and make your way to the Pile park, where your English-speaking guides will explain the basics of paddling and steering your sea kayak. Enjoy spectacular views of the Lovrjenac fort and the Dubrovnik city walls as you paddle out across the blue waters of the Adriatic Sea around Lokrum Island. With its palm-fringed beaches, holiday villas and hidden bays, it's no wonder Lokrum is nicknamed 'The Island of Love'.

Paddle your way to Betina beach, a secret spot at the mouth of a cave, and jump off to swim and snorkel around the coast.

Paddling back to shore offers even more impressive views as you see Dubrovnik from a different perspective and glide beneath the mighty sea walls. Your adventure ends back in Pile bay.
