2.Pula: Cave Sunset/Night Tour in Transparent Kayak

Meet your English-speaking guide near the playground in Istria County, learn basic kayak skills, then paddle a lit clear-bottom kayak along Pula’s coast. You’ll see the seabed, coves, cliffs, and perhaps jellyfish, dolphins, bats, or bioluminescent algae. Guides such as Pop, Ivan, Filip, and Ermin are praised for calm instruction and safety.

“Great trip with helpful guides. Enjoyed a beautiful sunset on the water and the caves were very cool and fun. One point is to make sure your seats are positioned correctly at the start, we had a couple of issues with ours which affected the comfort a bit, but it didn't detract from the overall experience and enjoyment.”

“Ondanks een kleine kink in de kabel, toch een hele fijne kajak belevenis gehad. Onze boeking verliep niet helemaal hoe het moest zijn, maar werd keurig opgelost door met een gids een privé tour te hebben. Het was heel fijn, relaxed de gids was heel aardig en behulpzaam. Heeft foto’s genomen ( die we nog moeten ontvangen) gaf goed adviezen hoe we de grot binnen moesten komen. Flesje water een banaan mee en na afloop heerlijk water meloen. Ondanks onze niet al te beste Engels elkaar prima verstaanbaar gemaakt.. aanrader voor wie er interesse in heeft.”

“Fantastic experience for our last night in Croatia! Started off with some deception as windy situation could possibly be a showstopper. But no worries, we(5 people only) had great support from Igor who guided us through the waves, although we were all newbies to SUP! Amazing views of sunset and some swimming fun concluded a perfect holiday. Thanks Igor and Mettafloat team!”
