Meet your guide in central Dubrovnik at 9:15 AM and make your way to 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.

Fantastic experience with Tommy! Really unique to see the city walls in the kayak and from the ocean.
Tommy was a great guide and towed a guest who got tired.
Highly recommend going with a kayaking partner, previous kayaking experience and a moderate level of fitness

A superb trip from beginning to end. We loved the stop off at the cove. Ivan went above and beyond to tell us about the history of Dubrovnik, very friendly and informative.They need to set up a QR code so people can leave a tip as we didn’t have any cash and would have liked to tip the guides!

A great way to see the old town from the water! I thought it’d be a bit of a struggle to paddle all the way, but really it wasn’t difficult at all. Plenty of break time worked in and the guide, Thomas, understands the pace of the people within the tour. The cave was a great stop for some swimming and relaxing!
