April 23, 2019 – Putting Croatian adventure tourism on the map, with the biggest welcome in the world. Day 30 of this incredible 2011 adrenaline trip covering 2,500 km along the Croatian coast.
The World’s Biggest Welcome, an ambitious adventure tourism project in 2011 in Croatia enters Day 30 of this 2019 appreciation of one of the finest tourism promotion projects ever in Croatia.
The plan? To showcase the diversity and fabulous offer of adventure tourism in Croatia by following a GPS route the length of the Croatian coast in the shape of the word ‘Welcome’ – thereby creating the biggest welcome in the world from a hospitable tourism country.
Day 30 moved from Sali to Kurba Vela on foot and kayak.
52 kilometres for the day: 10 km on foot from Sali to Telaščica, followed by a 42 km kayak ride from Telaščica to Kurba Vela to continue forming the ‘C’ in ‘Welcome’.
Day 30 set off from Sali to Telascica Nature Park.
