Rafting is a popular activity; Croatia has many fast mountain rivers with small cascades, ideal for beginners and experienced athletes. The center of rafting is the Cetina River in Central Dalmatia.
Kayaking is a popular activity; the water in the sea is always calm and without waves, ideal for paddling. The main kayaking tours are organized in the city of Rijeka, where the largest center for equipment rental and training for beginners is located.
Diving is a popular activity, and off the coast of Croatia there are many underwater reefs with rocks, and the remains of sunken ships can often be seen.
