Program & Gear List

We will meet in Novigrad near Zadar by the apart-hotel Castrum Novum. We head towards Maslenica Bridge, a representable red construction 300 m long that was destroyed during the war in Croatia but rebuilt in early 2006. It streches over the narrow channel which connects Velebit channel and Novigrad Sea. Once we reach the Maslenica Bridge, we challenge ourselves to find the most beautiful little town of Vinjerac. Vinjerac is one of the most interesting places of the middle Adriatic. Its position is attractive for everyone who wants to spend a holiday in the oasis of peace and silence, far away from the town noise and contamination. We will make a stop in the “Konoba Pece”, a well-know restaurant in Vinjerac serving local specialities.

Equipment: We use professional sit-on-top kayaks with 2 seats and a 3rd one in the middle for children. You will get a dry bag for personal items (camera, drinks, etc.), a life jacket, a paddle and snorkel gear.

Things to bring with you: shorts or bathing suit, T-shirt and sandals (or sport shoes), towel, sun cream, water.
Huck Finn is not responsible for the loss or damage of your personal items.
