Koločep, locally known as Kalamota, is the southernmost inhabited island of the Elaphiti Islands, located just a short boat ride from Dubrovnik on Croatia’s Adriatic coast. Covering an area of about 2.5 square kilometers, the island is renowned for its unspoiled natural beauty, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and rich Mediterranean vegetation. One of Koločep’s most distinctive features is that it is completely car-free, creating a peaceful and relaxing environment for both residents and visitors. The island is dotted with charming stone houses, ancient churches, and scenic walking paths that connect its two villages, Gornje and Donje Čelo. Visitors can explore hidden coves, secluded beaches, and dramatic cliffs while enjoying breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea. With its tranquil atmosphere, historical heritage, and stunning landscapes, Koločep offers an authentic Mediterranean experience and is an ideal escape for anyone seeking nature, relaxation, and a break from city life.
Lopud is one of the most beautiful islands of the Elaphiti archipelago, located northwest of Dubrovnik on Croatia’s Adriatic coast.

We had the BEST experience with our skipper/ guide Kristijan! He brought us to all the private spots for us to enjoy the water and some cliff diving. He was so kind and made sure we were having the best time. I highly recommend a tour, the boat is so amazing and the scenery is not to be missed!!! Perfect for your couples looking for a fun day out or even families!!!
Truly amazing experience! I didn't know Dubrovnik had such beautiful surroundings before taking this tour. Breathtaking nature and the water is crystal clear. The islands are filled with authentic little villages. The view is so surreal it feels like being in the Mamma Mia movie. Mario makes you feel very welcome onboard. Highly recommend ;)
One of the highlights of our vacation! The locations were stunning, the water was incredibly clear, and the Mario made us feel welcome throughout the day. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a memorable day on the water. Great value, fantastic service, and unforgettable views. Thank you for an amazing experience!
Kristijan picked us up from near Dubrovnik in a very nice speed boat with bimini. He asked us where we would like to see and what we were interested in doing. We visited 3 islands where we walked, snorkeled, drank in the atmosphere as well as coffees and had the best meal of the holiday at a restaurant recommended by Kristijan. We had failed to bring our snorkels but that was no problem as Kristijan had provided them for us as well as drinks on board. He was very knowledgable about the area and the whole day was a delight. We returned home in the evening to the light of the setting sun. I really recommend you ask for Kristijan when making a booking.
Boat tour was amazing, Mario is a great skipper. He showed some beautiful places, fulfilled our wishes and had great suggestions. Atmosphere was friendly and pleasant. All in all it was the best day in Dubrovnik!
Excellent experience, different places preventing crowded shelters, friendly and pleasant skipper. We had been in a collective boat the day before and there is a big difference in order to enjoyment and time management.
Marco is a great skipper. Took us to the Blue Cave, a nice beach, then a cruise around capped it off with an excellent restaurant recommendation.
We went on a boat tour with Kristijan, THE BEST SKIPPER you could find. He take us to a lot a beautiful beaches, he let us play our latin music which was very important for us as argentinian, he was so cool, he take a bunch of pictures of us, he was really kind. We cannot wait to come back a do it again. Will definitely tell everyone coming to dubrovnik to book a tour with him💫🫶🏼
Really good relaxed trip. Although we followed a route, Mario was happy to stop and show us things that met our interest. The blue cave is phenomenal and the other swimming stops were equally magical. We had a 12, 14 and 16 year old and they all liked it. Water, soft drinks and alcohol if you wanted it were available but make sure you stay able to swim because the water is superb. You don’t need mask and snorkel for the blue cave; I would advise goggles. Would very definitely recommend this trip to families and friends.
A Truly Exceptional Skipper (thank so much Kristian 🫡) I have rented boats in some of the world’s most beautiful locations (Capri, the Amalfi Coast, and Dubrovnik among them) and I can confidently say that Kristian set a new standard for excellence. His deep local knowledge, impeccable professionalism, and warm, “genuine care for my family” transformed what could have been a great day into an unforgettable experience. From the very start, Kristian demonstrated flexibility and commitment, even adjusting our departure time from 9:00 to 12:00 (due to a personal issue) so we could witness the magic of the Dubrovnik sunset from the middle of the sea (a moment that will remain with us forever). Throughout the day, he guided us to the best hidden spots, offering insightful recommendations that elevated every stop into a memorable moment. In my experience, you can pay for a boat, but you cannot buy the kind of passion, attentiveness, and authenticity Kristian delivers. He is, without question, the “cherry on the pie” that turns a boat trip into a once in a lifetime journey. I strongly recommend that the boat owner ( and any traveler seeking the very best) ensure Kristian is part of their crew. He doesn’t just navigate the waters; he crafts experiences worth treasuring. “A very grateful guest, Dubrovnik 2025”
