Itinerary
One of the gems that remains hidden from the crowds and which will take your breath away. A true wonder of nature – stunning red cliffs contrasting the crystal clear sea. Here you get a chance to swim into a cave which has a very tall ceiling and inside of which a tiny beach awaits you.
A tame and quiet cove with specific and somewhat dramatic cliffs reaching high above the sea. An ideal spot for a swim in crystal clear waters surrounded by extraordinary landscape far away from the crowds and noise.
Normally Dubovica or Mekićevica beaches are added to the plan. Both beautiful beaches ideal for an additional swim. Dubovica is perfect for guests who enjoy snorkelling as there is a hidden little cave into which you can dive into. What a sight! You will also find a charming little beach bar if you are in need of a coffee or a drink.
The stunning Zaraće beach is an optional swim break on our tour.
We cruise along Pakleni islands and stop at Mlini bay. In this exquisitely beautiful bay with a quiet, clean beach you will find an amazing family owned restaurant with traditional Dalmatian food. Food here is still prepared as it has always been. Lunch can be arranged, but it is not included in the price.

Flash is the best. I’m not sure we could have found anyone better for this experience! It seemed like we always got to each location before the crowd.
My friends and I did this boat tour a year ago and we still think about it every day. If I could give any person one piece of advice, it would be book this tour with Flash. He is an amazing, personable guy with so much knowledge. I will think about the day we had with Flash for the rest of my life.
What an amazing experience. We had the most amazing time. Flash shared his love of the sea and Croatia with us and took us to some amazing places. We swam and took in all the beauty of the gorgeous coastline and beaches. If there is one thing you do in Hvar please take the opportunity to do this. It was such a beautiful experience. Oh and take up his lunch recommendation Incredible food in an incredible location. Thanks so much. We loved it so much we have booked to go again
Our best day in Hvar!! Gordon was an absolute pleasure and we saw so many beautiful sights. He took the time to explain everything and gave us fun facts along the way! He knows exactly how to time things to make the best day for his guests, we were at the Red Rocks completely alone and as soon as he started the boat - 4 boats came into the small area. Also recommend the lunch restaurant, very fresh seafood!
Gordan is outstanding. Local guy, local feel. Friendly and informative. Paced the tour perfectly. Highly recommend and would absolutely use again. Truly a wonderful experience for our family. Bring cash for local restaurant stop, for lunch and wine ;) Worth every penny after a beautiful day at sea.
Flash gave us the best boat tour of Hvar we could ask for. His knowledge of the area and history was outstanding. His boat and accommodations are very comfortable. He knows the best areas to visit that will not be as crowded and helps tailor your day how you would like. Take his recommendation for lunch! He is great to talk to and clearly loves showing people his home town. We loved our day with him and highly recommend!
Gordon was a perfect host. He is a local to the area and clearly cares about making sure his guests have a great experience. He is very knowledgeable about the area- including the history, as well as the best times to visit certain places to try and avoid crowds. We have been on a lot of trips and experiences and my wife and I kept saying this was one of the most enjoyable vacation experiences we've had without hyperbole. Can't recommend Flash enough!
This was an amazing day for our family of 4 ( 2 teens)! Flash (Gordon) was an amazing guide/ captain! He gave us a lot of history, jokes and also just down time! He was so knowledgeable and really fit the trip to what fit our family! We somehow managed to beat all the crowds so it was as though the islands and sites were just for us! No other people, amazing pictures and just so much fun but also so relaxing! Highly recommend if you have a day to spend exploring!
Gordon is the perfect tour guide. He explains everything about the area in which we are touring, about the technical aspects of getting on and off the boat, about where to be most comfortable depending upon the speed. He is relaxed and follows your lead in terms of hour long to stay at each of the locations he takes you to, while keeping your apprised of the overall timing so as not to miss lunch.
Flash gave us an amazing tour of some private beaches and beautiful spots. He has an outstanding knowledge of Croatia and the history of the region. We took his lunch recommendation and loved it. Top notch all the way. I recommend travelers remember to bring towels and extra ice for the cooler. Thanks Flash for a memorable day trip.
