Where is the best place for water sports in Europe?
Croatia is one of the best places for watersports in Europe, for family activity holidays. With its consistent summer temperatures, affordable exchange rates and many flight routes, this stunning Southern Mediterranean country will certainly tick all the boxes.
A cocktail in hand, holding your favourite book with your toes combing the sand is the idea of a perfect holiday in most people’s minds. But once a parent, that perfect image begins to change. Even more so, if you’re a parent of a turbulent teenager. You can see it as well, can’t you?

What seemed like a great holiday idea, ends up with your teens non-stop staring in their pocket screens. If it’s not the great silence of WiFi, every parent will be all too familiar with the ‘rolling eyes’ and ‘what else is there to do mum’ comments. Sadly, sea and the sunshine don’t guarantee a great holiday! This is the reason why more and more families are now looking for ‘things to do’ first, before booking a destination.
Through our years of experience in creating family adventure holidays with teenagers, we found that water sports offer the perfect solution to keeping everyone active and bored free. It’s also a clever way for parents to be close to their teens, without cramping their style!
So where should you search for the best place to do a waters sports holiday in Europe? Well, the thousands of families who travel with us, will 100% agree that Croatia is the best place for watersports and family active fun.
Hopefully you’ve heard about our beautiful Croatian coastlines & sea, but did you know that Croatia has 33 beautiful crystal clear rivers? These pristine rivers are ideal for active families, summer vacations and super fun day tours. Discover exhilarating rapids of all grades to enjoy white water rafting experiences.
Only a few kilometres beyond the white water rafting river sections, you’ll find calmer waters perfect for river tubing. Conquer the rapids by yourself, paddling in your very own ‘water doughnut’. Spin, drop, splash your way through the river network and discover Croatia’s newest water sport adventure. Teenagers absolutely love it!
For active families with children ages 10 years upwards, we highly recommend – a swim, walk & hike through the famous Dalmatia canyon. Our canyoning family tours are led by the upmost professionals and guarantees an amazing day of fun. Surrounded by 150m high cliffs, you’ll hike, swim, splash and drift in an incredible environment.

After exploring rivers, we recommend moving to the seafront to enjoy our sea based activities like sea kayaking & Standup paddle boarding. Whether you are an experienced kayaker or beginner, this coastal tour is suitable for everyone. Discover hidden beaches, pristine waters and relax to the sea rhythms. Whenever possible, we always stop to swim and snorkel. If considering a watersports holiday this summer, then kayaking in Croatia is a must-do!
Whilst in Croatia don’t forget to try Stand up paddle boarding (SUP) for guaranteed fun and laughter; which is what our family activity holidays are all about. Take our boards and hit the waves!
