Good idea for those who likes uncrowded, peaceful places. So hard to find such once nowadays! Great video. :)

Hi, i love the video, i was thinking of doing the trip in one day with my mom, however you mentioned a couple times that it is a hard route. Specifically how hard is it to kayak? And could my mom and i do it with basically no kayaking experience.

hi, thanks for liking video. Well, Prvić is most of the year under influence of strong currents and wind bura. Otherwise it is extremely nice experience. If you choose very peaceful day and your mom can do 25-30 km paddling, it is very much doable. Keep in mind few things: eastern side of island has NO cove/bay for making a break. You either paddle or float on the sea. There are nice beaches on western side but no shadow. Kayaking around Prvić means you are 100% times on sun, including breaks (only shadow you can have in afternoon if you are close to the cliffs on eastern side in late afternoon. :)). If you are beginner, maybe you should consider first circumnavigation of island Plavnik from ferry port Merag or Sv. Grgur from Lopar. If something go wrong, there are plenty of places to evacuate on land. But one rule is the same for any of those islands: if there is north-eastern wind (bura), don't go. Even if sea seems to be fairly calm. It is not worth the risk.

@@crobackpacker Thank you a lot for the advice! I wasn’t planning on kayaking around the whole island, i would just go to the big beach you were talking about and come back. I would manage to do it but just my mom isn’t that athletic however i think going from Baska to the beach will not be a problem.
