The 10 Opatija Tours & Activities That Earn Their Price

1.Krk Island: Ziplining Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 522 reviews · 2 hours · from $88Our pick

Zipline over Krk Island with 8 lines and a 700m stretch, start near Glagolitic Alley, get safety gear, and enjoy views.

“We really enjoyed our zip line tour. Great activity to do with my young adult teenage sons. The guides were fun & informative, & chatty on other subjects. My sons found them engaging as did I. The views were impressive & the lines exhilarating. Only 4 stars as tour wasn’t as long as it said it would take. (We were obviously just very efficient ! 😀) and it is quite a lot of money for 3 people. Would recommend as something different to do and Krk was a great island to visit.”

3.Cliffs and caves kayak adventure

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 78 reviews · 3h 30m · from $82

Kayak past Opatija cliffs to Grotta del Diavolo, explore 2 caves, swim under the waterline, and choose cliff jumps.

“Fantastic morning spend paddling and swiming with my husband and 13 year old son. First stop is going into a cave by foot and then cave under water. Some went jumping from the cliff as well. Cave under water for me was a challenge as it’s hard for me to go into small spaces but so worth it to be in the beauty of cave and sunlight coming in through the opening far on top. Second stop is on the beach, time for a swim, taking a breather from paddling and going for some refreshments in the restaurant on same beach. All guides are really helpful, full of great information…”

Our tour guide, Stjepan Klarić, made the experience unforgettable. He was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and kind. Throughout the entire tour, he made sure my brother and I felt safe, comfortable, and included, going above and beyond in every way. We’ve done many tours with other companies before, but this one was truly the best. The destinations were stunning, and the personal touch from Stjepan made it that much more special. We will absolutely be coming back and recommending this tour to everyone we know! 5 star”
