Descripció: A 1-week kayak exploration of the islands of Vis and Hvar accompanied by traditional Dalmatian wooden fishing boats.

Vis Island was the first part of former-Yugoslavia to be liberated by Tito’s partisans during WWII. Following the War, it was home to a large army base and was thus saved from unsympathetic attempts to attract tourists. Vis is now using tourism to complement its local industries without letting the new visitors overwhelm what is special about the island. Its clear waters and abundant sunshine are natural magnets for the yachtsmen of the Adriatic Sea and divers from around the world. The dialect of the locals reflects the islands close to the historical Mediterranean maritime community.

A specific form of gajeta, the typical Dalmatian fishing boat, falkuse were used exclusively by the fishermen of Komiza on Vis Island to catch vast amount of sardines for hundreds of years. These vessels supported not only the community of Komiza but also the whole of Vis Island and Hvar Island as well. On this tour, our falkusa, or our leut, will act as a support vessel, providing not only a sleeping platform but a vehicle through which to teach guests about Dalmatian maritime culture - its history, its gastronomy, and even its ropework.
