Sea Kayaking Split - Brela

CONTACTFAQ

DESCRIPTION

This tour begins at a small place called Jakiruša – Brela. Beautiful Jakiruša bay is surrounded with spectacular mountain of Biokovo. There is a sandy beach in Jakiruša, popular with locals and tourists for swimming and on the west side there is a rocky coast and one of the last untouched bays in this part of the Riviera – bay Vrulja. We launch our sea kayaks on the beach and paddle lightly towards deserted sandy beaches of Vrulja bay. We stop to observe the submarine groundwater source that brings 50 m3 of drinking water per second to this place even in the summer. Our paddle takes us to Vrulja beach where we pause to swim and snorkel in crystal blue waters. After kayaking adventure, we can arrange a delicious meal in a local restaurant (not included in price).
