Lake Skadar National Park

It really is a paradise for paddle boarding! SUP in Montenegro is something else, and SUP on Lake Skadar is an amazing experience. An enclosed water location with flat water is perfect also for first-time paddlers. Imagine yourself sliding on your paddle board, surrounded by dramatic mountains and a green colour palette of all amazing vegetation. We have adjusted paddling routes for a perfect combination of active time while enjoying all the beauties this national park has to offer.

Lake Skadar National Park, located on the border of Montenegro and Albania, is rich in history and natural beauty. Established in 1983, it encompasses the largest lake in the Balkans, which has been a vital resource for local communities for centuries. The lake and its surrounding wetlands are recognised as one of Europe’s most important bird habitats. Known for its rich biodiversity and breathtaking landscapes, it is a home for numerous species of animals, including over 270 bird species such as the elegant heron, pelicans, vibrant kingfishers, and cormorants. The unique ecosystem supports countless insects, contributing to the vibrancy of life in this pristine area. The region is also rich in history and has been significant for trade and transportation, serving as a route for various civilisations, including the Romans and the Ottomans.

SUP Lake Skadar offers a breathtaking retreat into nature, allowing us to experience a serene escape and observe the harmonious relationships within this remarkable habitat. Taking a stand-up paddle (SUP) tour while travelling in Montenegro offers a unique perspective of destinations, allowing you to explore places that are not accessible by land and create lasting memories on your journey. Our guides are passionate about sharing their love of the lake, and you will have the chance to hear about it.
