Dugi Otok and the Kornati (28 May-02 June 2025)

A sea kayaking camp on an island surrounded by azure blue sea, a cosy little campsite tucked away in a remote cove, heavenly oven-baked pizza and a different hiking trip every day? “Island hopping” from island to island from morning to night or a little coastal sneaking? A big sea view…

Island circumnavigations, crossing open waters, dipping into tiny fishing villages, kitschy sunsets, sandy beaches, swimming mountains!

Exploring the fairytale islands of Dugi Otok and Kornati… It’s not a fairytale, it’s a divine advanced sea tour, designed just for you.


For your safety and to give you the attention you deserve, our tours are always small group tours.

We organize tours for a maximum of 10-12 people, with a maximum guide to kayak guest ratio of 1:6.

The tour is led by two British Canoeing SKL qualified, experienced, sea-trained guides.

Description

Summary Info:

Duration: 6 days

Location: Dugi Otok, Camp Mandarino, on a pre-booked campsite parcel

Meals: this is a self-catering tour, there are restaurants etc. in the campsite and in the village.

Accommodation: in your own tent or caravan, camping

IMPORTANT: This tour is recommended for those who kayak steadily and regularly! For those who have kayaked with us at least once before the start of the tour, have kayaked in sea conditions before, and are or will be in really good physical condition before the start of the tour. We will also have a personal interview before the tour to make sure that all members of the group have the basics needed to participate successfully.


There will be a star tour with two centers and one or two nomadic nights. Accommodation will be in a charming little campsite in the north of the island. Each day we can adjust the length, starting and ending points of the tours according to the weather.

Varied, island-circumnavigating adventures with full-day and half-day treks, alternating with some technical and safety training. Lots of swimming, wreck snorkelling, occasional wave riding in the more open waters. Dugi Otok from Zadar on the third island row, one of the most inland islands in the Adriatic. Its eastern side is jagged, winding and small-walled, while the western side is a noble, high rocky chain with big waves. We’ll take a look! 😉

 There’s plenty of island too, with lots of little villages with restaurants overlooking the sea. For catfish lovers, we recommend the warmer-water sea lake in Telascica National Park, where we also kayak through a film-like island park.


And then there’s one of the largest sheltered bays in the Mediterranean, where the Venetian Empire parked its entire navy during the war. In gratitude, mankind cut down all the usable timber to build ships and left the islands to the sea winds. From here, the mysteriously beautiful world of the Kornati, the lunar archipelago, with its 150 islets, narrow passages and high cliffs, begins. Perfect sea kayaking terrain.

We have planned a different itinerary for each day, which we change flexibly according to the mood, strength of the company and the weather. We’ll be on the water between 9-18h per day, paddling between about 20-25km per day, with the necessary amount lots of rest. 🙂


Our accommodation will be in a lovely, comfortable, pool-restaurant-shop-campsite in the north of Dugi Otok. This is a hybrid, 2-centre star trip.

Accommodation costs approximately € 30 per person per day.

Thank you for choosing Explorers.
We are really looking forward to it!


Fine print:

The program will be held with a minimum of 7 participants. Kayak canoe trips are nature-adapted, weather-defying, mostly pure joy, but sometimes a challenge. With the exception of sea tours, tours will only be cancelled and refunded in the event of an accident or extreme weather (storm, hail, etc.). In all other cases, e.g. sea tours, the weather is part of the discovery and we will have to adapt our plans. If the cancellation period has expired and you do not show up for the tour, the tour fee will not be refunded. Detailed cancellation conditions are set out in the GTC.
