Booked long in advance. Immediately an e-mail from The Day Sail to confirm that it was okay and to see if we could possibly also on another day if the weather would not be good. Making contact afterwards was very difficult; messages sent via tripadvisor, directly e-mailed and eventually called directly... we had offered to be on another day, but we did not know yet if they wanted to use it. he would look at the messages and let us know if the day would still be changed. A day later, he sent a message that it would not happen. Huge disappointment, we had been looking forward to it.
This sailing trip made for a perfect day visiting the islands outside of Dubrovnik. Dubo was a fantastic skipper and enjoyed showing his passion for sailing with his guests. We were able to steer the ship and help with the sails if desired. The trip was very laid back and allowed for plenty of time to swim, snorkel, and walk around the islands. This was the highlight of our time in Dubrovnik. Thanks Dubo!
Fantastic day yesterday with Dubo, so easy going, friendly..no rush ..we could stay on islands for as long or little as we wanted. Great to be able help out on the boat if you want but no pressure to do so. Would highly recommended & great value for a full day trip. Thanks Dubo!
We went on a sailing trip with Dubo today and we’re more than happy about the experience. We enjoyed the trip to the islands nearby Dubrovnik, with perfect breaks for swimming and local lunch. Our skipper Dubo was super friendly and open for any wishes and ideas from ourselves. We absolutely recommend this sailing day trip.
It was a great experience - I really enjoyed being on the water. Capitan did such a great job! In love with Croatia 🥰♥️
Dubo the skipper and captain took us and another guest on his racing sailboat around the islands of Dubrovnik. We had great wind and a very exciting time. Dubo made sure we all had tasks to do since sailing is a team sport. We loved getting a crash course in sailing and recommend this tour for anyone who wants a hands on genuine sailing experience. At our request Dubo also took us to the blue caves which is a must do. Thanks for a great day!!
Dubo made a huge effort to ensure that we had a full and varied day, nothing was too much trouble. We were able to tailor the trip to exactly what we wanted to do and where to go. The whole experience was value for money and it was a pleasure to spend time with Dubo and learn the basics of sailing a sail boat.
We had a really great day on the water with Dubo. He took a lot of time and swept us away with his passion for sailing. We particularly liked the fact that you are not just a passenger, but can really get involved, set sail, steer and much more. We can only recommend the trip. If we come to Dubrovnik again, we will be happy to be Dubo's guests again.
Great sailing day, we were able to participate in the boat handling with the guidance of a real expert captain. The island visits were great as well as the pickup and recommended restaurant along the way. Highly recommended!
An incredible experience! Dubo, our skipper for the day, is a fantastic person, knowledgeable, and flexible to make the day the way you want it. You can sail and be in control of the boat as much or as little as you like, with your choice of how much time you spend sailing, swimming, or exploring the islands. We learnt a lot of practical skills for sailing in preparation for our Day Skipper course we are studying for. Highly recommended for anyone wishing to gain some sailing experience, or to see the Elafiti islands. We stopped at two islands and explored a little, with options to buy food at restaurants or shops, or you can take your own packed lunch. The boat is a former racing yacht and easy to control. Great value.
