our instructor Wei really knew their stuff and drifting past the cliffs at sunset was the highlight, and honestly better than the paddle we did in Dubrovnik last year, loved it

our instructor Lucia was brilliant and a glassy inlet with nobody else around was the highlight, and great if youre not super fit, and paddled maybe 8km.
