We really enjoyed the kayaking tour with Jennifer. She was very friendly and kind 🙂 We visited some cool places. We really liked that there were just a small group of people at the same time. Highly recommended experience 🙂

Tour Overview
The adventure starts at Valovine Beach, at our KAYAK & SUP beach rental centre (GPS Google maps: 44.861922, 13.810854). We will have a brief 15-20 minute introduction so that we can get to know each other, learn or refresh the basics of paddling and talk through the safety instructions. Once that is done, the fun part begins!
SEA KAYAKING
Next, we set out onto the water, enjoying a gentle paddle for around 4 kilometers. The real magic starts when we find our own tempo and begin gliding across the turquoise sea with every stroke. During this time we will take breaks for snorkeling, cliff jumping, canyon exploring, and a picnic!
VISIT THE CANYON & CLIFFS
The first stop is at a small canyon, where we have some time to explore the area filled with secret spots and fascinating formations. By the cliffs, there’s a point for taking stunning photos under the old military bunkers built on the cliffs.
SNORKELING & CLIFF JUMPING
During a beach break, which lasts around 30-45 minutes, it’s snorkeling time and an opportunity to get to know the underwater life of the Northern Adriatic. Also, for the thrill-seekers, there’s a chance to jump from the rocks into the water; some classic Pula cliff jumping!

From here, we make our way back to where we started where our tour sadly comes to an end and we must say our goodbyes. But, this is also a new opportunity to choose another adventure from our offer!

What Our Guests Have Said
My husband and I really enjoyed our kayaking trip with Majda. It was a nice small group (just one other family and us) so we got lots of personalized instruction and wonderful photos taken during the trip! We enjoyed kayaking in to the sea cave, swimming/snorkeling, a cliff jumping opportunity, and learning more about the area. Would definitely recommend!
This is one must if you are Pula! the Guide,Tea, it’s amazing! She really loves the place, the history of the place and will show you with passion the area. Me and my boyfriend, we made the kayak experience and I reccomend you the tour in the morning because you will not find a lot of tourist. The tour is with not so many people and this allows you to enjoy the experience. Renting the kayak is easy but with one guide,believe, everything will change! I super recomend this experience!!
We were eight people from 9 to 67 years doing this trip together, and we all had such a great time with our guide Leo. He took us to the good spots for caves, cliff jumping and snorkelling, and he took great pictures that was shared with us afterwards. Leo also shared facts of the sites along the way which was really interesting. It was a highly recommended experince!
