About X Adventure Sea Kayaking Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik's trusted sea kayaking company since 2015. Over 5,000 happy paddlers each year.
Our Story – Why We Started Kayaking Dubrovnik
X Adventure was born from a simple belief: the best way to experience Dubrovnik is from the water. In 2015, founders Darko Stanić and Milo Leoni started taking friends and family out on kayaking trips around the Old City walls. Word spread quickly.
What began as weekend excursions has grown into Dubrovnik's premier kayaking experience, trusted by over 5,000 guests each year. But our mission remains the same – to share the magic of the Adriatic while ensuring every paddler feels safe, informed, and amazed.
Today, our team of certified guides continues to uphold the highest standards of safety and hospitality. We invest in the best equipment, maintain small group sizes, and train continuously to give you an unforgettable sea kayaking experience in Dubrovnik.
