First of all let us begin by explaining exactly what kayaking is. Kayaking is a recreational water sport where participants use specialised boats called kayaks where you can explore a range of waterways, such as in the sea, up rivers, white water rapids, surf zones and lakes. Minimal skill is required and the activity can greatly be enjoyed by all! Obviously since there are different types of kayaking it is natural that there are a number of kayaking destinations. Europe is super for kayaking holidays and there is a great contrast between the different destinations.
If you love being active and being in the great outdoors and always love trying new things then kayaking holidays are perfect for you. A newly discovered destination which is just perfect for kayaking holidays is Croatia!
Kayaking really is wonderful in Croatia! Exploring Dubrovnik and around the Elafiti Islands with so much scenery and amazing views to take in you will have a super time. With a base on the sunny and picturesque Lopud Island known locally as the "living Island", where there is lush green scenery and a magnificent sandy beach of white limestone sand and no traffic, it really is a truly idyllic place to be based in Croatia for Kayaking. The vibrant and colourful waterfront promenade of the small island offers quirky waterfront restaurants and cafes, with ingredients being grown locally. Some of the 200 local residents even produce their own wine and olive oil. The park on the island is very well-known as a former garden of a grand villa and has a wide collection of plants collected from all around the world. The Island also offers stunning architecture, including a mix of old Greek, Roman and Slavic buildings and ruins. Lopud is fairly peaceful and quiet so if you are looking for more nightlife, Dubrovnik would offer more "life", which is only a short ferry journey away.
There are wonderful blue waters and lots of natural features including a landscape of giant rocks, high cliffs, colourful reefs, hidden caves and peaceful bays for you to explore but not just by kayak as many activities are on offer which you can take part in, including walking, cycling, rafting, canoeing, swimming and snorkelling at the close by beautiful uninhabited Island of Ruda, which has many interesting and unique sights to see!
