Whether you’re an experienced paddler or a beginner, Krk has something for everyone. The island’s coast is dotted with caves, grottoes and rock formations just waiting to be explored. With a kayak or canoe you can discover these hidden treasures and immerse yourself in a world of unspoilt nature.
One of the most popular routes for kayakers and canoeists on Krk is the stretch from the town of Krk to the island of Košljun. As you paddle along the coast, you can enjoy spectacular views of the azure sea and the surrounding islands. Along the way you can land on secluded beaches, take a refreshing swimming or snorkelling break and explore the diverse marine life.
For those looking for a bigger challenge, Krk also offers longer kayak tours. A popular route runs along the island’s southern coast, past charming fishing villages such as Punat and Baška. This tour lets you discover both the beauty of the coast and the island’s rich cultural heritage.
If you don’t have your own equipment or would rather paddle with a guide, there are various rental and tour providers on Krk.
