Du Motion Half-Marathon Race ended two weeks ago, but it seems like Dubrovnik does not lack the adrenaline for more sports activities.
As part of the Dubrovnik Outdoor Festival 2017, TM Adventure is organising an adventure race which will combine different sport disciplines such as sea kayaking, running and abseiling.
At 10:00, competitors will begin their endurance test with the first discipline: sea kayaking (sit on top), in pairs from Šulić beach, located (near Pile gate) to the island of Lokrum. Adventure race competitors will run 6km around the island of Lokrum and kayak back to Šulić beach for a final challenge: abseiling from fort Lovrijenac (St. Lawrence), on the mainland.
The race starts on the 20th of May 2017 and it consists of three phases:
Race distance – 13 km
Kayaking: 6 km
Running :7 km
Price: 32 EUR per person, and 16 EUR per person for members of a sport club.
Find more information on their official Facebook page.
The Dubrovnik Sharks will write history by taking American football to Bosnia and Herzegovina.
A very peculiar type of athletics competition is taking place in Lokve on April 29th, 2017: the 41st edition of the Frog Jumping Championship.
The people of Split (or Splićani as we like to call them) like to drink. They like their drinks hot, cold, mixed, and everything in between. Therein lies Sanctuary, Split’s first dedicated sports, cocktail, and whiskey bar. Having opened in March of 2016, Sanctuary is quickly becoming a staple for cocktail enthusiasts, and is surely paving the way for craft cocktail rookies.
Sports come in many forms and shapes. And while the Vrlika area is famous for offering a variety of adventure sports - climbing, hiking, cycling, water sports, there is even something for those, who prefer something with less movement and more in tune with this beautiful nature - sport fishing, for instance.

There is so much, Inland Dalmatia has to offer in terms of outdoor activities and sports. From hiking and cycling to climbing and wild river sports, there is everything a heart of a true nature-lover longs for. A new video from the Sunce Association (NGO) - "Be Natural, Be Active", co-financed by the Croatian government and from EU funds, will give you a better idea about the endless possibilities of this region.
So, be natural and active, use the existing paths, don′t leave any garbage behind, listen to the sounds of nature - just enjoy its beauty.
