Once we touch down in Dubrovnik, weāll hop on our private speedboat to Lopud, where snacks and champagne will be waiting for us.
Get ready to mingle and explore our stunning island! Weāll kick things off with a fun workout to shake off the travel, followed by a happy hour and a delicious dinner. With our DJ pumping up the energy, our private bartender will be mixing drinks to keep you dancing the night away. Where this adventure takes you is all part of your story!
et ready to dive into the full SYB experience! Weāll kick things off with coffee, followed by an epic morning workout, a yoga cool down, a refreshing dip in the ocean, and a hearty breakfastāall before 10am!
Today, weāre kayaking to the underwater caves on the nearby island (about an hour of paddling). After that, weāll bike between the charming villages of SuÄurac and Å ipanska Luka, where weāll enjoy lunch before making our way back. And donāt forget, tonight weāre heading into town for dinner, so make sure to bring your dancing shoes!
After our morning routine, we will hop on our speed boat to arrive in beautiful and old Dubrovnik. Whether you're a history buff or G.O.T fan, our local guide has got you covered on today's walking tour. We break off from the group and have free time to shop and explore before meeting at a special restaurant for a big dinner. Round off your day with drinks soaking up the view, or fully immerse yourself with cliff jumping! At the end of the night, we're back on the boat to our beautiful island.
Discover the ruins of Lopud as we hike across the Island; if the hike doesn't take your breath away, the views certainly will when we reach Sutvrac Fortress. We'll run down to Sunj beach for some beach games and workouts, and if you're down, see if you can take on the 1000 abs challenge! We've put in the work; now it's time to play. Soak up the beach vibes and grab lunch.
Recharge, take an afternoon nap, hit the spa and flow into sunset yoga. For dinner tonight, we're taking over a local restaurant in the bay!
One of the most iconic days of your life; prepare yourself for our 200 ft PIRATE SHIP. It's not just a boat; this is a MF SHIP! We'll cruise through the islands and see the Dalmatian Coast the way it needs to be seen, from the water!
We finish our night with a beautiful dinner at our hotel.
Weāll start with some easy morning yoga to ease into the day after last nightās festivities. Today, weāre off to hike and explore our little island and the nearby Sunj beach. With its shallow waters stretching for hundreds of feet, weāll snorkel, kayak, lounge, and soak in all the good vibes with friends.
In the afternoon, weāll have a lineup of workoutsāoptional runs, yoga workshops, and of course, beach bootcamps! Whatās better than enjoying a refreshing drink after a solid sweat session?
As the sun sets, weāll roll out our yoga mats to stretch out those sore muscles. Weāll dive deeper into our practice (this is where the magic really happens), leading up to our final event: Black Tie by the Sea. Donāt forget to dress for the occasion; the views are stunning, and the memories will last a lifetime!
We have our speed boat departing at 8am sharp; giving you enough time to get to Dubrovnik for your flight. If you have an early departure, we can arrange a private transfer for you.
Until next time... or until we throw our next party because this friendship just started!

The story of SYB is very simple; Surf is adventure, risk, adrenaline. Yoga is spirituality, a deeper perspective on the short amount of time we have on earth. And beer is our chance to enjoy and not take it too seriously. They donāt always surf or do yoga or even drink beer on every adventure but they do take equal parts of what these things stand for and make one hell of an experience! Best Trip Ever! @surfyogabeer Cant wait to plan my next one. Miss this crew

Loved day 2 of this #fitnessadventure in #Croatia with #surfyogabeer. Started the day with a 90 min bootcamp, 2 mile paddle to another island, 3 mile bike ride, lunch, then bike/paddle back to a night out with an incredible meal, karaoke and a few too many vodka pineapples...

Can You Handle It?
Once you touch down in Dubrovnik, grab a quick 15-20 minute Uber to Gruz Port, where our leaders will be waiting for you with our very own private sexy boat. Cold beers and white wine flow as we sail to our little slice of paradise, Lopud! Then, first things firstāweāre jumping into the water! With snacks and champagne waiting, weāll get you situated in your rooms, shake off the travel with a fun group workout, and roll into a sunset happy hour and delicious dinner. With our DJ setting the vibe and a private bartender mixing drinks, the night kicks off with energy, laughter, and dancing under the stars. This is only the beginning!
The next morning, we dive into the full SYB experience! Coffee in hand, weāll start with an epic workout, followed by a yoga cool-down and refreshing ocean dipāall before breakfast. Fueled up, weāre off on a kayaking adventure to explore hidden underwater caves. Then itās onto bikes to cruise through the charming villages of SuÄurac and Å ipanska Luka, stopping for a local lunch. We kayak back to Lopud, winding down with a sunset yoga session before our surprise theme party gets underway!
Of course, no trip to Croatia would be complete without exploring Dubrovnik! History buffs and G.O.T. fans alike will love our guided tour through its hidden corners and famous spots. Weāll break off to shop, explore, and soak up the cityās beauty before meeting for a group dinner. For the daring, thereās cliff jumping before we return to our island with a magical sail through the starry night.
Back on Lopud, weāre hiking across the island to discover hidden ruins and the breathtaking views from Sutvrac Fortress. Afterward, weāre off to Sunj Beach for games and the ultimate 1000-abs challenge for anyone brave enough! Recharge with lunch, maybe indulge in an afternoon spa session, and wrap up with sunset yoga before dinner at a local gem by the bay.
Now, brace yourself for Ship Day! Weāre not just hopping on any boatāthis is a 200-foot pirate ship ready to take us on an adventure along the Dalmatian Coast! Weāll sail through stunning islands, soaking up views and sun, with a daring 30-foot jump from the back for those bold enough! The day wraps up with an evening to explore a local island for dinner.
On our final full day, weāll ease into things with a morning hike, shaking off the festivities from the night before. After breakfast, weāll explore Lopud one last time with options to snorkel, kayak, and relax on Sunj Beach, soaking up the good vibes. For those feeling energetic, beach bootcamps, runs, and yoga workshops are on the schedule. As the sun sets, weāll roll out our mats for a final yoga session, leading up to our grand finale: Black Tie by the Sea. Dress up, enjoy the view, and capture memories (and professional photos) that will last a lifetime!
In the morning, itās back to reality as our speedboat departs at 8 am, taking us back to Dubrovnik for flights. Until next time, or until our next adventure!
Yes, travel & medical insurance is mandatory and must be obtained prior to joining our trip. If you choose not to purchase travel insurance, you acknowledge and accept our policy, which requires a minimum of 28 days' notice to transfer your credit to another trip.
Please note that we do not issue refunds under any circumstances.
GETTING THERE
Arrive to the Gruz Port on the north side of Dubrovnik at 1pm on August 25th. There you will be welcomed by the SYB crew and jump on the SYB speed boat to our island! This means you can arrive anytime before 12pm to Dubrovnik International Airport DBV because it usually takes around 20-30 minutes by Uber to get to the port.
LEAVING
We'll set up our boat transfer straight to the old town port of Dubrovnik and from there you can grab an Uber or taxi to the airport. Our boat have you arriving by 9:30am so that you can be at the airport by 10am.
*We also have a private shuttle service that can pick you up straight from the airport and take you directly to the island hotel for $140 up to 4 people.
Lopud (an SYB favorite) is home to LaFodia Sea Resort. This 4-star hotel is pure luxury, with seaside views & nature surrounding us. It is truly a unique experience!
This is a 4-star hotel so you can expect AC, WiFi, daily room cleaning, room service, safe, minibar, hair dryer, beach towels, bath towels, bath robes and even slippers.
LaFodia's private beaches gives us access to some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Be ready to detox to retox!
As we begin this trip, we will meet in Dubrovnik and arrive at the city's only international airport, Äilipi Airport (DBV).
Dubrovnik is rich in history and culture, stunning architecture and picturesque landscapes. We get explore the historical Old Town Dubrovnik and venture out onto the Adriatic Sea in kayaks to experience the iconic underground caves.
Accessible by boat from Dubrovnik, Lopud, a small island off the coast of southern Croatia, is one of our favorite places. Lopud is known for its historic ruins located at the highest point of the island, and we will hike to explore the island's beauty.
We even venture onto the Adriatic Sea to see the islands on the stunning Dalmatian Coast. But, we can't forget Croatia's exquisite pebble beaches that are unique to the region.
After exploring the beautiful areas around Dubrovnik, we depart from DBV.
Part of the SYB lifestyle is enjoying fresh and local cuisines. Croatian cuisine takes influences from the Mediterranean, with seafood and fresh produce but also integrates simple strudels and schnitzels of Eastern Europe.
"Black Risotto," aka cuttlefish risotto, is a must-try! With its unique black color, this Croatian delicacy is common on the coast.
We get to have a few dinners at local restaurants, so get excited to explore local areas & indulge in the cuisines and culture!
DO IT! We recommend that everyone comes on our trips alone. For most of us, the biggest takeaway from this trip will be the new people you meet, the new perspectives you see, and the amazing moments you share. Hanging out with awesome, likeminded people that are meeting you for the first time will remind you just how awesome you are. It may seem scary but we promise you, your amazing group of new friends and SYB leaders will be there for you the second you arrive.
These are all levels, so even if you have never done some of these we have a full team ready to make sure you try something new and have fun doing it! But of course, they are all optional and we can always find ways to still enjoy Croatia to it's fullest!
We have a day in Dubrovnik where we've set up two different style tours. Option one is a Game of Thrones tour which explores all filming that was done there. Majority of the group opts for the GOT tour; it's dope. The other one is a historic tour of the city itself. Once the tours are done, you're free to roam the streets, shop around, eat all of the gelato before we meet back up for dinner.
After a late night, you may not want to wake up and join us for a workout, but we highly suggest it! Included in your trip, the boot camps and yoga sessions keep us energized - there is nothing better than waking up and sweating with your new friends! Our world-class trip leaders know how to start your day the best way, with a good workout to prime us for a day of adventuring.
This experience is included in trip fees.
No need to whip out your phone or camera at any point throughout this trip because we have got you covered. We will have a professional photographer and videographer joining us on this trip to capture every moment. These will be the best travel photos and videos you will ever get - you're friends better be ready for a photo dump out of their wildest dreams!!
Kuna is the currency of Croatia, but Euros are widely accepted in the region, as are USD (but Euros are preferred).
Most credit and debit cards are accepted at most banks and hotels, and any non-franchised ATMs will not charge a transaction fee.
ATMs are widely available throughout Lopud (a quick walk from our hotel) and Dubrovnik, but we urge you to prepare and withdraw cash before the start of the trip!
We suggest bringing ā¬300 to ā¬400 to use at the beach bars and a few of lunches, but otherwise, we've got you covered! The average drink prices range from 14 to 24 Kuna, ā¬6 or $8.
Croatia is one of the safest countries in the world! The only significant risks we may experience are pickpockets or scammers in touristy areas.
Our accommodations will have safes for us to leave our valuables in, and we suggest leaving all important items in the safe while we are out exploring - but maybe keep your Yeezys and nice jewelry at home!
Tap water in Croatia is excellent - some of the best in the world! We are perfectly safe to drink from the taps. However, if you leave Dubrovnik, try filtered or bottled water to be safe, as smaller townships have fewer regulations on their water.
This is a coastal adventure, not a luxury getaway. Our property is beautiful, clean, and comfortable, with stunning views of Croatiaās Adriatic coastline.
Expect morning workouts by the sea, sunset yoga, and fitness games, paired with group dinners, nights out in town, and plenty of dancing. You can always take it at your own paceāskip a workout or relax at the house if you need.
With an open mind and a sense of adventure, youāll be ready to soak in all the magic of Croatia!
