Late-afternoon light slides off the Adriatic and the city of Split leans back on the horizon as you push off from a rocky cove near Marjan Park. The sea pulls at the board like a curious companion, and the paddles mark steady, rhythmic beats as islands and cliffs pass by. Guides keep the group close, teaching technique between pauses for snorkeling, cliff jumps or simply to watch the sun lower behind the peaks.
