Itinerary

120 min

Embark on our Dubrovnik Private Speedboat Tour to the enchanting Elaphite Islands. Elaphiti islands are the group of the islands, where our first stop is Koločep, or Kalamota how locals call it. Come and explore the Caves however you like with a special trip guided by a local skipper. The sea is warm, clear and very blue. One of the coolest parts is visiting the famous Blue Cave. The Blue Cave is a small swim from the boat and there are a few rocks along the side to stop if needed. Pretty, once you are inside. We will provide you with a snorkeling mask to see beneath the water. You'll have drinks like beer, wine, soft drinks, and water provided. Plus, you can use snorkeling gear if you want to.

Admission included120 min

After exploring the caves, it’s time to unwind at one of the most beautiful beaches in the area – Šunj Beach on Lopud Island. This spacious sandy beach with shallow, calm waters is perfect for families with kids, as well as anyone looking to relax and soak up the sun. The bay is naturally sheltered, making the sea calm and ideal for swimming. Along the beach, you’ll find a few cozy cocktail bars serving delicious food, and one of them even has hammocks hanging between the trees – the ultimate chill-out spot to sip a drink, take a nap, or simply enjoy the peaceful island atmosphere. If you love laid-back vibes, warm sun, and crystal-clear sea, Šunj Beach is the place to be. And of course, your friendly local skipper will be happy to share more insider tips and help tailor the experience to your wishes.

Admission included120 min

After exploring the stunning beach at Šunj, we'll head to the other side of the island where a delightful culinary experience awaits you. Savor a delicious lunch at a local restaurant, featuring the freshest catch of the day for seafood enthusiasts. After lunch, immerse yourself in the island's rich history with a visit to the Franciscan monastery, founded in 1483, the oldest part of Lopud. Stroll through the serene and picturesque botanical garden, a hidden gem free of charge. This experience combines natural beauty, history, and local flavors, making it the perfect way to discover the charm of Lopud.

Admission included60 min

During the 15th and 16th century many summer residences were built on Šipan by the noble families from Dubrovnik. Šipanska Luka and Suđurađ are the two main towns of the Šipan island. In Suđurađ you can see the remains of the renaissance castle of the family Stjepović – Skočibuha. Also worth visiting is the beautiful Pakljena tower, which dates back to 1563. If you would like to escape urban life for a while and soak up the relaxing vibe and peaceful atmosphere, to have a fully authentic experience, visit the scenic palatial former residence of the Skoćibuha family, located in Suđurađ. Find out how the typical Dalmatian village looks like by visiting Šipanska Luka, where locals still live by old customs traditions handed down by their ancestors. Learn about the myths and legends of Šipan on a guided tour around many of the islands’ historical, natural, and cultural attractions. The whimsical fisherman village of Suđurađ, on the island’s east coast, is worth exploring.

Admission included60 min

Following our visit to the island of Šipan, the waves will guide us along the stunning coastline, eventually bringing us to the turquoise beach of Osmoliš. Here the locals reveal hidden gems and picturesque spots, perfect for capturing unforgettable memories. Our excursion concludes with a swim at this breathtaking beach. While it marks the end of our full-day adventure, we are happy to extend our stay, allowing you to savor the rhythmic waves and enjoy another glass of local wine.

Amazing

We had an absolutely amazing private boat tour! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The boat was beautiful, clean, and very comfortable, and the scenery along the Croatian coast was breathtaking. Our skipper was incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, taking us to stunning hidden bays and crystal-clear swimming spots. We never felt rushed and were able to enjoy every stop at our own pace. This was definitely one of the highlights of our holiday. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Croatia and would book again without hesitation. Thank you for an unforgettable day! 🇭🇷☀️🚤

Just book it

Amazing. Ivan picked us up at the dock as planned and we set out. We were the only two on the boat and he took us to several amazing places over the course of the day. He asked for our input and tailored the day and timeline according to our needs. Easily one of, if not the most amazing day trip/excursion my wife and I have done in the 12 years we’ve been together. The host/booking company was kind and communicative- providing instructions as needed and making sure they answered all of our questions. Couldn’t recommend this option more- and I’m generally a tough one to please!

Just amazing!! Totally worth it

It was such an amazing experience! The communication and instruction were spot on. Ana was very happy to assist us with our requests and Nick has made our day so special, taking us around the islands and the best swimming spots. We all loved it so much!! One of the best moments was having lunch at a restaurant by the water, a dream! Thank you ever so much for making our trip memorable.
