“We are so glad we signed up for this. Did a morning Paddle Boarding session. Spiga Cafe was a bit of a walk but it was nice to walk on deserted streets early in the morning. Spela was our instructor. It was just 4 of us including the instructor. Good quality boards. Spela was knowledgable, constantly striking conversations with us about the city and our holiday. Paddle boarding was very easy. Not something anyone should be worried about. Spela even showed us a hand stand. She is super strong.

I've always been somewhat apprehensive when it came to handling fish but through this workshop I gained knowledge that empowered me to venture into cooking with fish more.
