ACTIVE CRUISES IN THE ADRIATIC SEA
Sure it’s nice to relax on a sundeck and simply enjoy the amazing Adriatic landscape that passes by, but we know that there are some of you who prefer more active holidays. You can still enjoy the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic Sea and delights of dalmatian cuisine while also exploring the interior of Croatia’s islands and its hinterland on foot or by bike. There are several hiking and cycling cruises of various difficulties available. Some of them only include light walking while others are more ambitious. Our agents at ➨ info@ekorna.net will be happy to give you more information on availability and routes. We have prepared several itineraries that cover southern Croatian coast (better known as Dalmatia) as well at the more lush islands of the north (Kvarner Bay). You can connect them into one long and unforgettable Croatian adventure or even attach them to several hiking and biking options in the neighbouring Slovenia.
