What you’ll do
Acquaint yourself with the kayak, as well as the sea life and land life of this special area. Here, at the far south of the Istrian peninsula lies the Great Kolumbarica (cliff). While diving through its underwater tunnel we will see a lovely turquoise light, fish that dwell in these hidden caves and enjoy the beauty of the phenomenon that is the sea. We will also get to know the lonely Isle of Šekovac and its many charms, which include the chirping of the crickets, the smell of the sea and the sound of the waves crashing upon the sand. Let the light breeze carry you away as you cycle and explore the Istrian peninsula to fully experience this getaway. The Istrian coast is one of Croatia’s most breathtaking sites and it is perfect for adrenaline junkies, cyclists and the ideal spot to escape your chaotic city summer. We will introduce you to breathtaking bays, stunning beaches, a turquoise sea and, with a bit of luck, we will even see dolphins. We will also stop by the unusual Safari bar, which is located at the south of the park and is completely in tune with the surrounding nature. Fresh drinks and leisure time await us there. We will also swim around the Island of Ceja, explore its uninhabited hills and enjoy the rays of the evening Sun. After our time on Ceje, we will head out to the open sea on our kayaks/SUPs to marvel at the changing color palette of the sunset. We will enjoy a glass of wine and experience surreal sights and relax to the soothing colors and sounds of the Adriatic.

Day 1
KAYAK TOUR WITH CAVE EXPERIENCE
In the morning hours, we meet at Jistra Adventures base at Stupice Camp, where we will have an introduction to kayaking, as well as aspects of the sea and the mainland life related to this unique Istrian landscape. After that, we start our Kayak Tour with some light paddling, and in an hour we will be rewarded with an exceptional view of the high cliffs, which conceal an enclosed oasis. Here, at the deep south of the Istrian Peninsula, lies Velika Kolombarica. On the coast we’re letting our kayaks and after swimming through a sea tunnel and entering the cave, we will see a turquoise light shining upon millennial rocks, turning the clear sea into a natural pool. On our kayak tour we can go snorkeling and explore the blue underwater world, meet the fish living in these interesting depths, and enjoy the beauty of the sea. Here, Istrian nature shows off all of its beauty on our kayak tour. Surrounded by both high and low cliffs, adventurers can try their luck in jumping from the rocks, having fun until our kayak tour returns to the camp. On the way back, we will go by the lonely islet of Sekovac, which offers a true summer feel. Our kayak tour guides will find a peaceful paradise without people.
