The morning opens on a rim of karst stone; wind combs the pines and the turquoise bowl of Green Lake waits below like a quiet invitation. Participants gather at the SUP base on the Vrljika river where inflatable boards and life jackets are checked, then glide into water that pushes and pulls with an easy current.

Hydrate before launch
Drink water during the transfer and bring a refillable bottle in a dry bag — karst sun can dehydrate quickly.
Footwear for rocky banks
Wear sturdy water shoes or sandals with toe protection for entry and exit points that are often limestone and uneven.
Sun protection
Sunscreen, a brimmed hat, and sunglasses are important; reflections off the water intensify UV exposure.
Short practice session
Take the initial SUP instruction seriously — a 10–15 minute land drill and short water practice set you up for comfort on the lake.
Water shoes
Protect feet on limestone shores and provide traction during board entries and exits.
Quick-dry clothing
Dries fast after splashes and keeps you comfortable during paddle segments.
