About this tour
This tour goes all around the island of Plavnik, also stopping at the small islands of Kormati and Mali Plavnik. It really offers a lot of stuff. Incredible and unique beaches, diving on small reef islands, the famous Blue Cave, and an optional stop and hike on the island of Plavnik, famous for its wild nature and animals, home to the Croatian white-headed vulture. We also stop by Plavnik fish farms and try to spot dolphins, which are known to hang around there.
After we have met on the pier, we start the ride towards our first stop, around 10 miles—20 minutes away—which is a small island called Mali Plavnik. Its south side is decorated with unique beaches, for example, the one on my homepage. We enjoy the sun and blue water while exploring the hidden beaches and caves of this little island. Then we head to the Kormati Islands passage to observe the fishes and feel the current. Blue Cave is our next stop. Famous for its size and unique lighting.
We continue our way around the island. Decide if we want to go on land to an interesting short hiking trail in wild Plavnik nature or spend some more time on unique beaches spotting white-headed vultures and dolphins. A full circle around this large island has been made, and we head back to Punat while cooling down in the sea breeze.
