We were a small group which is rather good, however the boat trips are very long, the boat was old, smelled of diesel, and was slow. We sailed for almost two hours to reach the site and two hours to return. The islands are very beautiful, but the stops for swimming had no particular interest, no beach. The skipper, although friendly, spoke approximate English and provided almost no commentary. The lunch was good, we had medium-cooked tuna, however it consisted of a single dish and drinks are to be paid for separately.
We were fortunate to be only 3 couples on this small boat, and the outing at sea was very enjoyable, with swims in crystal-clear water and a delicious tuna meal, even though it lasted a bit too long.
My wife and I went on this excursion in mid September and had a great time. This is considered shoulder season and so there was only one other couple on the boat which made for a more personal experience, but this sounds like it is not often the case. We had a lovely time, captain Davir was very friendly and informative and a great captain for the day. The food was all fine but nothing special. The boat is modest and nothing fancy but was comfortable for the journey. Personally I much prefer a smaller group experience like this opposed to the large party boats that go out of Zadar and would definitely recommend this excursion.
This was a great experience. The boat was clean and sturdy and there was plenty of food and drinks on board. The small group was the perfect size and I felt like there was plenty of space to spread out. We stopped at amazing swimming and snorkeling areas and lunch was great. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience!
It was an amazing tour and experience with Davor. He took us to so nice places for diving and swimming. We had fresh meat and tuna for Lunch. There was a lot of fruits and drinks on the boat. We had breakfast on the boat. Everything was super nice.
Lovely food. Friendly skipper. However felt like a half hearted trip, taken to same island twice. Waited too long at a 3rd stop while skipper visited his friends. Limited sight seeing.
Lovely experience! Everything was fantastic. You will expend all day out enjoying good food, drinks, amazing places where to jump to the water and other surprises!
Exceptional day, beautiful discovery of the Kornati islands thanks to Captain Davor who knows the place as his pocket. Great lunch in a magical place and the top is to do it in a tiny group.
Amazing day at sea with captain Davor. Avoiding crowded places. Diving in breathtaking locations. Boat with food and drinks. Lunch at a terrace with fresh grilled fish (or meat your choice). Couldn’t recommend more. The captain himself is a wonderful host. We have two teenage kids who enjoyed every bit of it. Snorkeling in the Kornati islands is beyond nice.
A very nice experience in small staff, which allows to stop in magical places not accessible with larger boats , swimming in coves with transparent waters, experience of the big blue, all this far from the crowds... Our captain was very friendly and attentive. Breakfast with fruit, cheese and cold cuts was good, as was the meal in a beautiful place.
