The first part of this tour begins in front of Pula Amphitheatre – Arena, the symbol of the town and provides you the enjoyment of a unique, unforgettable, and FUN bike ride along the coastline paths giving you the pleasure of getting to know the Pula’s history and its cult locations.
On the way to the Punta Verudela peninsula the symbol of Pula’s tourist offer, you will have the opportunity to see the part of the old town, seafront, port, and ex shipyard „Uljanik“ with a more than 160 years long tradition as well as some of the Pula’s most beautiful coves and famous beaches.
Sacred cliff is a symbol of Verudela and a place that is visited by many couples and sunset lovers, thanks to its romantic ambiance, beautiful sea views, and unforgettable magnificent sunsets.
Then, after this leisure seaside bike ride and sightseeing through Pula to Punta Verudela, you will cycle towards Stoja where you will leave bikes, set sail on the relaxing boat tour, and enjoy a FUN-filled “Snorkeling Adventure” to the Pigeons cave and cliffs also known as Grotta dei Colombi.
Shortly after departure from Stoja, we will anchor the boat near the reef where your adventure will start. Pay careful attention to the snorkel briefing, as important instructions will be given on how you will enter and exit the water.
Once in the water the real FUN starts, you will look for many types of underwater plants and animals, including many different colorful fishes and marine species like sea urchins, starfishes, sea cucumbers, sea sponges, crabs, and many others…
Your guide will take underwater photos and videos of you while snorkeling.
In shallow rocky areas, we will look for holes sheltering octopuses. Usually, the octopus rounds its shape in these holes, forming its body in a circle, and they are so good at camouflaging their shape and color that it`s very hard to spot them.
In the coastal wave zone some bigger ruthless predatory fish species can show up, chasing other smaller fishes or even large shoals of fish can cut our way, such a stunning experience!
Keep in mind that your guide cannot control nature, he can just do his best to show you as much as possible to fill your adventure with FUN.
