Where to wakeboard in Croatia

For some of the best wakeboarding in Zadar, North Dalmatia, head to Pag, one of Croatia’s largest islands. It’s a stunner – epic Lanzarote-style moonscape on the interior, surrounded by miles of pebble and sand beaches. The lively areas around Zrće have a definite Ibiza vibe to them. 

Cable Pag is a modern cable ski lift in a private bay on Zrće beach. The complex sits on a platform above the sea, 20 metres from the coast. The cable is 600 metres long with a height of 10 metres, giving the potential for higher lifts and jumps.

Also onsite is an equipment shop, restaurant and cocktail bar with a sunny terrace.

Just south of the historic town of Poreč on the Istria coast, this friendly cable park is great for all levels of wakeboarding. Set on a 650-metre cable, riders can reach speeds of up to 35kph. The social setting includes bars, restaurants and is a great spot to watch the sunset. 

If you’re visiting Ski-Lift Poreč with others who don’t quite live and breath wakeboarding, there is plenty to occupy them too, from beach volleyball to tennis to cocktail sipping on the beach.

A popular island with some of the country’s best beaches, connected to the mainland by a bridge, Krk is Croatia’s biggest island. Nestled in the Bay of Punat, Cable Krk has a 650-metre cable featuring eight tow lines across five towers, where you can reach speeds of up to 32kph, making it suitable for both beginners and experts. There is also a restaurant, bar and shop on site.

Opened in 2017, Cable Park Split provides modern equipment on a private beach that’s easily reachable from both Split town centre and the airport – which makes it great for killing a few hours before a flight. It has a 500-metre cable with five towers and several obstacles if you want to take them on. You can rent equipment on-site, and beginners’ instruction is available. 

Brand new for summer 2019 at one of the most westerly points of mainland Croatia, Pula is the ancient capital of Istria. The cable is 420 metres and takes five riders at a time at speeds of 30kph. 

A bar and restaurant in the middle of the bay can be reached by a wooden walkway, and sunshine DJ sessions with sundowner cocktails complete the chilled out vibe.
 

Our Alana Beachclub is in the perfect place for wakeboarding. Located at the foothills of the Paklenica National Park, near Zadar in North Dalmatia, with ski boats moored to a pontoon giving easy access to the sheltered flat water of a large, quiet bay with few other water users. 

And if you want the excitement of combining your wakeboarding love affair with other activities such as paddle boarding, windsurfing, dinghy sailing and tennis, come see what our Croatia activity holidays have to offer.
