The excursion starts at Ručica Beach. After an introductory talk by the guide and the distribution of equipment, the adventure begins towards Beriknica Beach, where a first half-hour break is scheduled. Beriknica is one of the most attractive beaches on Pag Island, and also one of its symbols. It fascinates with its natural arrangement of three rocks in the sea, an experience particularly magical when observed under a starry sky.
Paddling is a true pleasure thanks to the multicolored lamps that illuminate the water beneath the kayaks, offering an unforgettable experience of the sea at night and a view of the sparkling sandy seabed. The route continues to Slana Beach, where a short break is planned to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the evening landscape, typical of the entire eastern coast of Pag Bay, irresistibly resembling the surface of the moon.
The return follows back to Ručica Beach. The unreal beauty of the landscape and the tranquility of the night paddling strokes make this experience unique.

The upper canyon of the Mrežnica River, located between Primišlje and Tržić, is a true gem of the river set in the heart of unspoiled nature. It is accessed by going upstream from the mill and bridge near Tržić, on the road connecting Slunj and Tounj. The route passes through small waterfalls and rapids to an impressive waterfall in a canyon surrounded by steep cliffs, where the sun’s rays only penetrate briefly around noon. Despite this, in summer, the water is warm, perfect for swimming.
Further downstream, you will discover the tallest waterfalls of Mrežnica, reaching up to 8 meters in height – an ideal place for relaxation, swimming, and a picnic. In the afternoon, the return will be through the canyon and its waterfalls.
The adventure takes place in inflatable kayaks for two, which are easy to maneuver, with all necessary equipment provided: helmet, life jacket, paddle, neoprene suit, and waterproof jacket for cooler days. Waterproof containers are also available for your personal belongings, such as a camera, food, and drinks.
For the best experience, bring shorts or a swimsuit, a T-shirt, spare socks, sandals or sports shoes, a towel, sunscreen, and plenty of water.
