Today is all about exploration, history, conservation, and empowerment.

Take to the water on an iconic sea kayak experience, gaining a completely unique perspective of this incredible city. Gaze at the ancient stronghold, jump in for some snorkelling, and visit the secluded Betina Cave, tucked into the Adriatic coastline. Return to the hotel for free time over lunch, then join your new friends on the famous cable car and travel to the top of Mt. Srd. On a clear day, you can see up to 60 km (37 miles) - the reason the neighbouring Imperial Fortress was strategically built, back in the 19th century. Here you have time to grab a drink, visit the War Museum, or just wander around and enjoy the view before returning to the city's old town.
