Had an absolutely fantastic boat trip around the Pula coast with Sale Istria! There were eight of us plus Captain Pavao, and he made the whole evening so special from start to finish. Captain Pavao was brilliant - super friendly, relaxed, and clearly loves what he does. He took us out to a beautiful swimming spot, and we were lucky enough to spot dolphins along the way, which was such a magical moment. As the sun started to set, he put on some perfect chilled-out music and raised the sails, and honestly the views were incredible. There was so much to do on board - some of the group went snorkeling, others had a go on the paddleboard, and the boys in our group did some cliff jumping, which they absolutely loved. We got some brilliant GoPro footage of it all too. To top it off, we were treated to an authentic Istrian platter with drinks, which was a really lovely touch and gave the evening a proper local feel. It was relaxed, fun, and full of laughter from start to finish - genuinely one of the highlights of our whole trip. Great company, great food, great music, and an amazing captain. Couldn’t recommend Sale Istria highly enough!
Paul genuinely wants to make sure you enjoy yourself. He loves his job and he loves sailing. If you book this you definitely will not regret it. If I could give this 10 stars I would.
We had a wonderful sailing trip with Paul. He is a very charming and personable skipper. The stop off for swimming was lovely and refreshing in 33C and we stayed cool under the boat canopy. Paul’s knowledge of the history of the coast was impressive. We can thoroughly recommend this enjoyable experience. We even saw Dolphins. Thanks Paul
We had a fabulous half day of sailing with Sail Istria yesterday. We arrived at Verudela marina and boarded the yacht where our skipper for the day (Paul / Paolo) showed us some maps and explained some good options for our trip. Once we’d agreed on a plan we set off south along the coast and stopped in a little bay for swimming and use of the SUP. Drinks and istrian snacks were included for the trip. We sailed on to a really sweet little restaurant where we had a very reasonably priced lunch. Next stop was an island where you could see dinosaur footprints in the rocks, then back past the lighthouse towards Pula. We saw dolphins twice on the journey! Finally a chance to watch the beautiful sunset from the yacht before our return to Verudela marina. A fabulous day was had by everyone: we had a chance to sail or sunbathe, swim and chill out with drinks and some music too. Thank you Paul and Sail Istria!
Great afternoon on the yacht. Very friendly skipper with wine and soft drinks available plus snorkelling kit and paddle board . Nice relaxed vibe
Very nice skipper Pavo who made our time more fun and calm. The cliff jump stop was really cool and fun with both caves and jumping. Also fun free diving which the second place didn’t bring but that was ok anyway. One bottle of wine would not have been enough if more people would have wanted it so that was a bit on the cheap side. Other than that I had an amazing time and so fun to be sailing, not just be on a sailboat 🤗
We had a wonderful afternoon. Sailing with 6 people along the coast, visiting beautiful spots and swimming in wonderfully clear water. Our captain Pavao was a sympathetic young man, speaking good English with whom we had animated conversations. All in all a very successful afternoon. Recommended!
As a gay couple we felt very comfortable . Our skipper Pavao was helpful and taught my partner some great tips. Her and I had a romantic trip and I would recommend this tour for couples and friends alike.
Thank you so much for your kind words. This is the reason why we are in this business. There is no better reward for our work than happy guests. We hope that we will meet again. Pavao sends greetings as well. We wish you all the best!

Couldn’t have been more accommodating. Beautiful swimming stops, amazing company and stunning views. If you are looking for something relaxing in a small group this is perfect!
