Stone Throwing At Camp Baska Voda In Southern Dalmatia

You know what is the very best thing about the Camp Baska Voda, for kids? Its the stones and rocks, baby!

Western, italian side of Adriatic features sandy beaches pretty much exclusively. But on the eastern side, it gets more interesting. The southeastern Adriatic will often feature long sandy beaches, and northeastern Adriatic will have multitudes of rocky beaches, great for snorkeling and diving.




But the camp in Baska Voda has something not many other camps have. It has a stony beach, and rocky hills extending into the water too! Stones and rocks, baby!

So we got there to Baska Voda at the end of the long trip one night. Having setup our tent, the kids that have been there longer and have pretty much gone there to Baska Voda every summer, have shown us what is the best thing to do around there.

We played a game of   throw the stone, hit the stone. So a bunch of kids goes up on the rock overlooking the sea, and everyone takes a bunch of stones with them.

Then the first kid will throw the stone up in the air and toward the sea. The other kids, lined up near the first kid, will throw their stones and try to hit the first stone while in flight.

It was a lot of fun, this game, but the next morning we had to drive on, further north.
