Hvar Sea Kayaking

QUINTESSENCE OF THE ARCHIPELAGO

Day Trip

Everybody’s crazy about Hvar and it’s not just because of its beauty and charm coming from stone buildings, cathedral, oldestpublic theater in Europe, arsenal, fort and numerous little alleys with lively bars and taverns. Hvar also owes its fame to the archipelago of Paklinski or Pakleni islands spread out East – West with almost six nautical miles in length. Home to various legends throughout history they provided valuable resources of wood and sap (paklina) for wooden boats built in the past mainly for fishing purposes. The fishermen of Hvar are still a common sight in the area, yet in the season there are more visitors anxious to feel the vibe and charm of the little islands, its restaurants, pebble beaches, crystal water, and protected coves.

This trip is intended to those wishing to experience the best of the archipelago without having to circumnavigate all of it, yet with enough stops to swim and relax. The further you gofewer boats you encounter and more interesting and diverse spots are discovered such as the remains of a Roman villa rustica, secluded coves, solitary rocks…

We paddle one way only and use transfer to take us either back to Hvar town upon reaching our last paddling point in the archipelago or firstly we are transferred to the islands and then paddle back. This decision is usuallytaken depending on the wind direction so the trip is more enjoyable.

Needless to say that a long day on the water opens up appetite, therefore we’ll have lunch somewhere along the way in a very nice local restaurant.
