Rural Dalmatia
Our home away from home is a family-run pension, a comfortable base where we can relax by the pool after our day's activities and enjoy traditional Dalmatian home-cooked food in the evenings. Setting out on foot from Zadvarje, we will get fantastic views out over the islands of Dalmatia, stopping in a shady spot for a picnic lunch - perfect for getting to know our fellow adventurers before the real action starts!
Wet & Wild!
After experiencing the thrill of white-water rafting down the Cetina River there's time to relax by the pool or take an optional trip following the Cetina Gorge to its natural end in the medieval pirate town of Omis. Next we head back to the Cetina River for a thrilling day of canyoning down water-polished chutes, abseiling down the Gubavica waterfall and bathing in natural basins.
Sea Kayaking the Makarska Coast
The historic town of Trogir is a must for many visitors to the region - famous for its beautiful architecture it can be visited on a free day. Finally a short drive away from our pension lies Brela, from where we take sea kayaks out to explore coastal caves and swim in the crystal clear waters of the Makarska coastline - the perfect way to end our week.
