Adventure in Croatia

From rock climbing to mountain biking to kayaking, Croatia is the prime location for active endeavours. The coastal regions of Istria and Kvarner are notable for diving opportunities. The waters of the Istrian peninsula are the final resting place of numerous sunken ships, while underwater reefs and caves abound around the islands of Kvarner. Croatia's many rivers make it an ideal place for canoeing, kayaking, and rafting trips. You'll float on clear green-hued water past forests and mountains and
through canyons.

On land, you'll find hiking, biking, and mountain climbing opportunities in Croatia's eight national parks and 10 nature parks. One recommended trek is the Premuzic trail through the Northern Velebit National Park, which offers views of the coast,
islands, and mountains. The national parks of Mljet and Brijuni Archipelago are the perfect setting for island cycling, and the Istrian peninsula's network of old tracks and paths attracts beginner mountain bikers and off-road riders.

Tourist agencies specialising in adventure travels and trips offer almost any activity imaginable, including diving, rafting, hiking, kayaking, biking, and caving. All programs and itineraries can be organized according to tourist wishes or...
