Sea kayaking in Zaton
|

If the river does not attract you and, on the other hand, you are fed up with crowded beaches and the noise that is unavoidable in summer, then an ideal excursion for you is sea kayak. About half an hour of slow rowing will take you to the pebbly isolated beaches that are possible to reach only by sea.
Traveling by kayak through the Adriatic differs greatly from paddling experiences on oceans, on the Mediterranean or in the northern seas. A clear, warm sea, countless small coves and beaches, make sea kayaking on the Adriatic by far the best in Europe. Travelling by kayak, you get to sea places that a yachtsman could never reach - hidden bays with sandy, pebble or rocky beaches, shallow lagoons, caves. Numerous cultural monuments, striking architecture and local customs complement and further enrich an already glorious experience.
Island groups provide an ideal venue for an island-hopping adventure: from tiny port to tiny port, from bay to bay - just a few miles of rowing and many dockings. Distances between the islands are not great, and being in a kayak you can easily enter river mouths (Krka delta).
The greatest interest is inspired by the national park of the islands Kornati;
wonderful nature and a serene life without motor vehicles.
The Croatian sea is relatively safe and pleasant for a kayaking trip. Most islands elongated in shape and run parallel with the mainland coastline, which means that one side is always protected from rough winds and waves. Regarding winds, you must reckon with the midday maestral, the NE bora and SE jugo (southerly).
Due to the many very sharp rocks it is safer to use a polyethylene kayak rather than laminated or collapsible ones. It would be remiss of you not to bring along a mask, snorkel and flippers, since they enable you to enjoy the clear and rich underwater world. You will explore the spring of the underground river, caves and pits, and have a bath in a cristally blue sea. |
