    Fantastic experience

    Hannah_W, Sep 2025
    This exceeded our expectations. Visited the most beautiful cave for a swim stop. We stopped by Lockrum & our guide told us some history of it. Arms got a bit tired by the end but what a great experience.

    Very fun afternoon seeing...

    A different way to see and find about Dubrovnik. Tom the guide was informative and catered for non experienced kayakers.

    This experience is one of a kind. Our guide was so lovely and patient. Whilst kayaking was manageable, for those (like us!) who have never kayak’d before found it a little harder than expected out on the open sea as although there were floating breaks where the guide told us stories about the Island and facts about its history was over an hour each way to go overall. The views were brilliant and snorkelling was stunning, as in the cave there’s a lot of little fish to see. The water is stunning. When booking this be aware - the app lists the meeting point by the bus and taxi station, when it’s actually down a set of stairs behind them down to the sea. We did explain this to our guide who was nothing was polite and apologetic. Despite the small hiccups, the guide we had (whose name I cannot recall) was so knowledgable and patient - and knew the best spots for a photo. Great experience.

    Lovely kayak around the wall

    My daughter and I kayaked on a beautiful sunny day in late May. It was a little windy so a very good upper body workout. We got pretty wet due to the choppiness of the water and if I were less experienced I may have felt some anxiety. We stopped to se at Bettina Cave which was lovely - but wear water shoes as it is very rocky.

    We were pleasantly surprised

    Kelly_U, Sep 2024
    We had an exceptional time kayaking, and seeing the city from the water was so cool. The guides kept us safe and gave us historical information about the city. The caves were a pleasant surprise. It was a good pace for all levels. It was much better than expected.
