On this day , we continue towards the Adriatic coast, where we will visit Krk – the biggest island in the Adriatic, also known as the Golden Island. We will paddle and take a swim along the coast and around the island of St. Mark, and continue under the impressive Krk’s arch bridge, connecting Krk and Croatia’s mainland.
Afterwards, we will visitthe  city of Krk – one of the oldest cities in the Adriatic, which was already mentioned by the blind Greek Homer in his famous poem under the name of Koureto. The city is dominated by the Frankopan family castle and the cathedral complex, famous for its variety of styles. The city of Krk today is the administrative, political, economic, and religious center of the island of Krk. After an amazing day on the coast, we will return to our base in Zvecaj village for dinner.

We return to the river this morning in the upper Mreznica canyon. Our route takes us from the hotel to a point approximately 45 minutes away where we’ll start our expedition into the canyon. We travel through a gorge so narrow and deep that the sun enters for only a few hours each day, around noon, creating spectacular light effects. Paddling past cliffs of carved white rocks, lush vegetation and cascading waterfalls, we will arrive at a strong freshwater spring. We continue our journey to the second-highest waterfall on the Mreznica (8m), a magical place ideal for swimming and a picnic. After a break, we continue and finish the adventure and finally return to the hotel in the late afternoon.
