With the freedom a kayak gives you, what is the best site to be than in Croatia, with its multitude of historical coastal sites to travel to and even more small bays and coves where you can find a beach to yourself. The crystal clear greenish blue waters are great for swimming and snorkel diving, being warm most of the year, and you can stay at any of the holiday resorts on the coast to taste some of Croatia’s superb gastronomy.
As you’ve in all probability already learned, Croatia features over a 1000 islands, some of which are believed the most gorgeous in the world, a daydream goal for kayakers.
If you want the biggest concentration of history mixt with stunning beauty, you would do no wrong getting in Central Dalmatia. On the mainland you have the fascinating, bustling city of Split with its Roman rests, and the Makarska Riviera with its beautiful beaches, resorts and nightlife. Out to sea, just few paddles away, you have two of the most idyllic islands in Croatia – Hvar and Brac.
Cetina river is one of the most splendid positions in Croatia for fresh water kayaking and is unquestionably the spot to go for white water rafting. The character of the Cetina varies considerable along its length. In the upper parts it is for the most part fast with plentitude of white water rapids, and dwells in deep ravines with nasty outcroppings. In the lower parts the river is much slower, more like a lake, with the tall canyon walls which go up on either side being wider, from time to time punctuated by flatter areas smattered with tiny hamlets, broadleaf woodlands and green meadows full of blossoms, which in springtime are truly rather intoxicating. What more pleasing place to be than in these quieter lower reaches when you’ve just come down from the rapids.
