About this trip
Join us for an Unforgettable Zadar Archipelago Paddling Adventure
Embark on a journey of discovery as you explore the breathtaking Zadar Archipelago, a hidden gem in the Mediterranean. This exclusive trip promises an exhilarating blend of adventure and relaxation in one of Croatia's most stunning regions.
Paddle in Turquoise Waters:
Dip your paddle into the crystal-clear turquoise waters and set out to uncover the secrets of the archipelago. Glide effortlessly through tranquil islets, uncover hidden reefs, lounge on pristine beaches, seek refuge in secluded coves, marvel at dramatic cliffs, and venture into enchanting caves – all from the vantage point of your Stand-Up Paddleboard (SUP).
Premium Local Accommodation:
Your comfort is our priority. We've carefully selected premium, locally-run accommodations that reflect the authentic charm of the region. Immerse yourself in the culture and hospitality of these island communities, making each night's stay a delightful experience.
Savor Local Delicacies:
Treat your taste buds to an array of culinary delights crafted from locally grown and harvested produce. Relish in the flavors of the Adriatic as you savor fresh seafood, aromatic herbs, and farm-fresh ingredients, all expertly prepared to tantalize your palate.
Laid-Back Island Life:
Escape the tourist crowds and take a step back in time. Enjoy the unhurried pace of life on small Adriatic islands. Sip on a cup of coffee as you soak in the laid-back atmosphere, chat with friendly locals, and discover the genuine spirit of these charming fishing villages.
Flexible Paddling Routes:
Our mission is to unveil the archipelago's best-kept secrets, and your guide will create the perfect itinerary based on the groups skills, fitness, and preferences. We begin our daily explorations from three different launch points, with the option to cycle to one. Paddle 5 to 10 kilometers each day and enjoy highlights like Cold War-era military tunnels, charming fishing towns with hiking opportunities for breathtaking views, and secluded coves and beaches accessible only by SUP and kayak.
