Overview

Mobile ticket
See Budva’s coastline in a whole new light—literally. This two-hour kayak tour begins after sunset, when the sea turns calm and the city lights start to shimmer. Equipped with LED-lit kayaks, you'll paddle across the rocky shallows that connect Budva to Sveti Nikola Island, with the glowing seabed illuminating the way beneath you. Spot fish darting through the light and feel the silence of the night sea wrap around you.
The route continues along the ancient stone walls of Budva’s Old Town, now reflected in golden ripples, with the sky above filled with stars. It’s a peaceful, dreamlike experience designed for those who want to connect with nature in a fresh, unexpected way. Great for date nights, small groups, or mindful solo escapes.

What To Expect
Your adventure begins just after sunset on Slovenska Beach, near the river mouth. The sea is calm, the crowds are gone, and our team is waiting by the water—look for the EDDY flags. We start with a safety briefing and short paddling instructions to get everyone comfortable. Equipped with LED-lit kayaks, we paddle into the night across a shallow rocky ridge connecting Budva to Sveti Nikola Island. By now it’s almost fully dark, and the water beneath you glows with shifting light. Watch for fish drawn to it—needlefish, smelt, and sometimes even flying fish. We pause in a calm, open spot to float, rest, and take in the glowing seabed. It’s a quiet, surreal moment—just you, the light, and the sound of the paddle. Then we turn toward Budva’s Old Town. Ancient walls rise from the water, softly lit by the city. We glide past the ballerina statue, where reflections flicker on the surface. The tour ends back at Slovenska Beach. No prior kayaking experience is needed, and the pace is gentle—perfect for beginners, couples, and anyone looking for a new way to experience the Adriatic.

Night time paddle

5.00This experience is well worth doing. It is an easy paddle with great views and we had a very good guide. The LED lights under the kayaks lit up the water so well and really opened up a new view of underwater life. All the equipment was well maintained and the trip was very safe and well organised.
Highly Recommended

5.00We really enjoyed this experience. Instructor showed us how to ride a Kayak, then we started to look for fish, sailed near the cost line to the old town, took some photos. We rode it in the dark and kayaks were magically lightened, it was absolutely beautiful! Definitely recommend to try!

5.00Would give this tour 10 stars if I could. Such an incredible and memorable experience, saw lots of marine life and the site were all so beautiful and we had lots of time spent on the water. Really unique tour that I’ve not seen offered anywhere else, our tour guide Arseny was so knowledgable about the area, friendly and took some great pictures of us too. Couldn’t recommend this tour more!!!
Memorable experience!

5.00Incredible experience, definitely reccomend if you're looking for something different to do on your holiday. Plus amazing to see Budva by night. Very relaxing and calming. The kayaking is very chill you don't go very fast meaning any experience is welcome. The guide was super friendly and helpful. He took photos of us so we'd have some memories for after. It was a great use of the time too as we spent the entire time paddling around with a little break at Sveti Nikola. My only advice would be to eat beforehand as our session overran so even though we had more time than expected we were hungry by the end.
MUST DO IN MONTENEGRO
