Embark on a half-day aquatic adventure exploring the crystal-clear waters off Dubrovnik, once praised by famed sea explorer Jacques Cousteau as one of the cleanest and most pristine in the world. Your journey begins as you board a zodiac at the harbor, setting off along Dubrovnik’s stunning city walls with breathtaking views from the sea. Cruise past the Lapad Peninsula, passing the picturesque Grebeni Lighthouse, and continue toward Kolocep Island. Here, you'll stop at the Modra Spilja Cave (Blue Grotto) for a refreshing swim and snorkeling session.

Your half-day adventure on the Adriatic Sea begins at the small port of Pile, beneath Fort Lovrjenac. With instructors guiding you, you'll paddle toward the stunning caves and natural beauty of Lokrum Island. After around 45 minutes of kayaking, you'll reach Lokrum Island, where you'll have free time to swim or explore. Lokrum Island, located just in front of Dubrovnik’s Old Town, holds fascinating history and legend. It’s said that Richard the Lionheart was cast ashore here after surviving a shipwreck in 1192 while returning from the Crusades. In the 12th century, Benedictine monks built a monastery on the island, which they occupied for over 600 years. Though the remains of the monastery are still visible, part of it was converted into a residence for Emperor Maximilian of Mexico in the 19th century. The island is also home to a unique natural feature—Mrtvo More, or the Dead Sea, a small lake connected to the open sea by an underground channel. After exploring or relaxing, you'll return to the port with a short scenic boat cruise, taking in the breathtaking views along the way.

After departing the port, you'll head to the village of Mandaljena, home to the Miloslavic Family. Croatian cuisine varies by region, and coastal dishes are known for their use of olive oil, herbs like rosemary and sage, and influences from Greek, Roman, and Venetian culinary traditions, passed down through generations. At the Miloslavic Family Home, you'll enjoy an interactive cooking class. Pick fresh vegetables from their garden and learn how to prepare traditional dishes as your host shares culinary secrets and explains local recipes. All meals are made with organic ingredients, including the family’s own olive oil, wine, vegetables, homemade prosciutto, and bacon. This hands-on experience lets you engage with locals, enjoy the beautiful surroundings, and immerse yourself in the rich culinary heritage of Croatia. Everything, including ingredients, supplies, and wine, will be provided. Just bring your enthusiasm and appetite!
