Full description

Podstrana Bay is situated at the foot of the Perun, a hill with beautiful limestone ridges and green terraces, where the river Zrnovnica meets the sea. Here the small city of Stobrec was founded, one of the oldest cities on the Dalmatian coast. The tour starts on the eastern part of the Podstrana Bay from the small pebble beach in front of the Hotel Split. Prepare the equipment and paddle to the mouth of Zrnovnica river, while listening to the kayaking instructions. Reach the mouth of Zrnovnica and pass under the bridge where the incredible scenery of green fields and the mountain ridge of Mosor opens. Pass by the old city of Stobrec and get a good look at the dramatic limestone cliffs with picturesque traditional houses built on top. If you dare, you can try cliff jumping from six meters high. Stop at a pebble beach for a break to relax in the sun or have a swim or snorkel. Paddle back to the starting point and enjoy some more sea activities.

Longer than expected and taken to some really nice places

Really was worth the money. Was taken to a river which was crystal clear then into the sea towards a beach where we got to do some rock jumping and snorkeling then back in the kayak and out to sea to get some awesome views. Tour guide was great, very friendly and informative. Would recommend. We left at 0900 at split and returned around 1330 so had lots of time on the water

Beautiful kayak, excellent facilities but Supervisor was not top. Works messy and explains little where we go and what we are going to do. Didn't share his enthusiasm about kayaking. Organization was good. Neatly picked up and brought home.

Overall, the kayak trip was disappointing. See below

There were only 2 of us for the trip. We left from a small public beach directly in to the sea rather than from a river as sdvertised. The public beach that we departed from was not particularly clean. The water was choppy with white caps and perhaps the trip should have been cancelled. This is particularly true because there was so much turbulance that snorkellilng was bad as the water was so murky. The public porta-potties available for changing out of wet clothes after the trip were unclean.
