Sea Kayaking Novigrad Bay

FROM 28 EUR

We start our day with sea kayaking instruction on the beach just in front of the hotel and take a trip into the Zrmanja River canyon. The water here is brackish (mixed fresh and saltwater) which is the reason for abundant life under the surface. The eel which dwells here is a favorite gourmet specialty, but we are more likely to spot turtles, fish and birds along the way. After kayaking upstream on calm water like oil, swimming and jumping off cliffs we make an optional picnic lunch on the shores where the river meets the sea. Going back to Novigrad we enjoy the great views of the Maslenica red bridge.
