Windsurfing and Sailing
   |
Surf, Sail and Catamaran centre "Vodapark" is run by a Belgian expat called Mark Geurts and his Belgian wife Kristel (Marko and Kika in Croatian). They live with they're young son Josiph close to the beach in Stari Podstrana (300 meters high above the beach). Marko used to be a semi professional windsurfer, flying around the world to compete in the circuit of the big shots, until he discovered that Croatia has it all and Dalmatia even a little bit more. That was the moment to start "Vodapark" the Sail, Surf and Catamaran centre in Podstrana. He crossed the English Channel by surfboard, and did the same trick between Ancona in Italy and Split in Croatia (not knowing there were ferries and planes!?). Living in Croatia, Marko not only speaks Croatian, but Dutch, German and French too. He's one of the recently certified New Olympic Trainers on watersports in Croatia. "We are happy when you are happy" say Marko and Kika. |
