Water sports on Krk
Action, spots & adventure
Krk’s coast is one huge adventure playground. If you’re looking for more than just a sun lounger on holiday, you’ll find the right offer to get your pulse racing at almost every larger beach. Crystal-clear water, perfect thermal winds and first-class water sports centres make the Adriatic here the ultimate playground.
Fun sports on the waves
Wakeboarding & water skiing
The island’s absolute highlight is Cable Krk in Kornić Bay between Krk town and Punat. The state-of-the-art water-ski cable pulls beginners and pros across the water. With pro ramps and a relaxed chill-out bar right on the jetty, you can easily spend the whole day here.
Diving & snorkelling
The Adriatic here often offers visibility of over 20 metres. Dive down to the famous wreck of the cargo ship “Peltastis” off Šilo, explore the rock walls off Plavnik or snorkel with the whole family in the sheltered, shallow coves near Klimno and Stara Baška.
Parasailing, fun tubes & flyboard
For the perfect overview, let yourself be pulled up into the air behind a motorboat while parasailing – the view over Baška or Malinska is breathtaking! If you’d rather stay closer to the water, grab your friends for a fast ride on a banana boat, sofa or twister. And for anyone looking for the feeling of flying, the flyboard catapults you straight out of the sea into the sky.
Windsurfing & sailing
Thanks to reliable summer thermals and the distinctive bora, Krk offers excellent conditions for sailors and surfers. The wide bay of Baška in particular is considered a hotspot for windsurfers and wingsurfers. If you prefer something more classic, head to Punat Marina – one of the oldest marinas in Croatia. Here you can take sailing courses or charter entire catamarans for a trip in Kvarner Bay.
