Hvar Sea Kayaking
Short Break - Two Day Trip
EVERYTHING ABOUT THE ARCHIPELAGO
Hvar town partly 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.
This trip is in fact a mini sea kayaking expedition to discover as much as possible about the archipelago and to do with a style. The start is in the morning which will give you enough time to experience the most of the archipelago – places only few people have ever witness other than a few locals. There will be stops to swim, snorkel and relax. The further from the town you go fewer boats you will encounter and more interesting and diverse spots will reveal to you such as the remains of a Roman villa rustica, secluded coves, solitary rocks, little pebble beaches…Since you will circumnavigate the islands we will together consider the conditions on the water and choose the best route. In the evening the wild camp will be set while late lunch/dinner will take place in a local venue famous for its truly Mediterranean charm and great food.
Next day after breakfast and coffee you’ll continue exploration of the area to eventually come back glowing to Hvar town in the afternoon.
