The afternoon kayak adventure around Veliko Ratno ostrvo (Great War island), also takes place around the protected nature reserve in Belgrade. This interesting and romantic kayak adventure at the confluence of the Sava and the Danube is the right way to enjoy nature and the sunset that you can watch from the river. Since it takes place in the afternoon and evening, it’s a great way to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Previous kayaking experience is not necessary for this kayaking adventure either, and we provide basic kayak management training before the start. Like most others, this kayak adventure represents a medium level of training difficulty, with a duration of about 2 hours + training. The kayaks we use for the SUNSET kayak adventure are “SIT IN”, stable on the water, and are intended for training and recreation.

The instructor will be in his kayak next to you at all times, taking every opportunity to help and teach you.

Our recommendations
For this kayak adventure, you should dress sporty, and after scheduling the kayak training-adventure, you will receive detailed instructions on how to dress for that day. We recommend sports clothing made of synthetics or wool, because it is easier to wring and does not get soaked like cotton. Water sports mean that you can often get wet, so it would be good to bring a spare wardrobe. Bring drinking water, some snacks, a cap or hat, sunglasses, slippers when the weather is warm, and if you have cycling or gym gloves, bring them because rowing can sometimes blister your hands.
This kayak adventure takes place every day starting at 5 p.m.
