'Snorkeling' was with goggles but without snorkel "because of hygiene reasons". Visit to the blue cave was cool but kind of crowded, as the cave is not very large but our group was (± 12 kayaks).”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 599 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $48

Paddle from Pile Bay around Lokrum Island with guides such as Mike, Dom, Roman, Marin, and Nick. Expect about three hours on the water, a snorkeling stop at Betina Cave, optional cliff jumping, Dubrovnik views, a light snack, and wine at the finish. No island stop is included.

“This trip is not easy and there’s only one time that you get in the water unless you decide to cliff jump. There are “rest” stops where the guide stops two other times for people to catch up and to give information. Make sure you’re close to him so you can hear because there’s lots of noisy activity with boats and planes. It’s a good activity to see the city from a different perspective and not hot . It would have been nice to sick at the island …”
