Unfortunately we didn't get to see many dolphins, in fact only one last minute in the distance but the skipper tried so hard for us and was disappointed for us but we completely understand its not always possible. Nonetheless we still really enjoyed the trip, beautiful afternoon and very relaxing. The skipper pointed out some locations on the shoreline and we got some great photos!

The Kajak Tour was awesome! Our guide Davor has taught us well while paddling and has provided us with lots of info and tips. We had free time on the beautiful islands and the people were all super nice! We have done something like this for the first time and can really recommend it to everyone!

The guide was very friendly and really made an effort to show us the dolphins. Of course you can't force this with these great animals and that's a good thing. But some were visible.

It was really nice, great people, great boat... the price was completely fair!

Dado is a great guide. The morning with him was great!
