1.Dubrovnik: Sea Kayaking&Snorkelling Guided Day/Sunset Tours

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,554 reviews · from $39Our pick

Paddle from Pile Bay beneath Dubrovnik’s Old Town walls to Betina Cave, accessible only by sea, for a 20 to 30 minute swim and snorkel stop. Guides such as John, Ivan, Tommy, and Rocco lead small groups, share local stories, and offer safety support. Morning, afternoon, and sunset departures are available.

“Very enjoyable tour! Being solo I was reluctant to do it as paired with someone but don’t let that put you off as everyone is there for a good time. Snorkelling on a secluded beach was brilliant. My guide John was faultless, very knowledgeable and added his own experiences which I feel aways adds a personal touch to guided tours. Highly recommend this activity for your trip to Dubrovnik!”
