Kayaking Along the Dubrovnik Old Town Walls

Although kayaking is popular in Dubrovnik, we thought we might have missed the season for it with our late October visit. That is, until we spotted these through a fortress window.

Heeeeyyyy!

It turns out that this was the very last weekend for kayak rentals before the office closed up for the season.

And I’m so glad we were lucky with the timing, because kayaking along the Dubrovnik city walls was a surreal experience.

We made it around Old Town and into the harbor on the other side, where we could get close up views of the city walls as well as local boats.

We did not see many other kayaks around though. Croatians seem to think that this is winter.

I kid. Because yeah, Dubrovnik is still 20+ degrees and sunny. But, the ocean does become increasingly choppy as you head into the winter months. The rental guy almost didn’t let us go out due to the waves.

Made it back safe and sound. Thanks for trusting us, rental guy!
