Beautiful discoveries
This day on a speedboat organized by Jelena and Kasimir, who were very friendly, allowed us to make swimming stops in a beautiful cove and a blue lagoon that were very enjoyable and splendid. The towns of Hvar and Komiža are sites to see. Finally, the very beautiful turquoise color of the Blue Cave is a very touristy spot (a rather quick and rushed visit).

Merci beaucoup pour votre retour et pour vos gentils mots ! 😊 Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié cette belle journée en bateau, les arrêts baignade dans les criques et le lagon bleu, ainsi que la découverte de Hvar, Komiža et de la magnifique Grotte Bleue.
Nous sommes heureux que Jelena et Kasimir aient contribué à rendre cette excursion agréable et mémorable. Au plaisir de vous revoir pour une prochaine aventure en mer ! 🌊☀️
Great full day out!
Brilliant full day tour from Split with a great, informative tour guide, stunning locations & comfortable boat ride between all the stops! Couldn’t recommend highly enough & well worth the cost for a full day out.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the full-day tour, from the stunning locations to the comfortable boat ride and the informative guidance.
It’s fantastic to know that you felt the experience was well worth the cost. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you on board again in the future! 💙
Complete boat trip departing from Brac (Bol).
For those staying in Bol there aren't many online tour options and I was very satisfied with this all-day tour, but it's not too tiring either. The interval between stops was good as was the time spent at all of them. Kazho and Karlo were great and the group had 11 people, easy for disembarking. I recommend!

Expand your Croatia World
Great varied day, something for everyone and able to keep us happy (55 & 57) and the ones in their 20’s. Added an extra hour for enforced changes due to high winds. Great guys who made things relaxed but organised. Swimming in a Cold War destroyer tunnel a highlight.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 😊 We’re delighted to hear that you all had such a great and varied day, with something to enjoy for everyone. We’re especially glad that the whole group, from your 20s to your 50s, had a fantastic time!
The strong winds meant we had to make a few changes to the itinerary, so we’re happy we could add an extra hour and make the most of the day. And swimming through the Cold War submarine tunnel is definitely a memorable highlight! 🌊🚤
It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Croatia for another adventure in the future.☀️
Refreshing, beautiful day
We did the Blue Cave/Five Islands tour with Captain Kazimir and Guide Jelena. The Blue Cave was closed the day we went due to sea conditions, but everyone on the boat had a better time without going to the Blue Cave, as we got a little longer time at swim points, more island viewing, we got to actually swim in a different cave, and we didn’t have to wait in a long boat queue for the Blue Cave.
Captain Kazimir kept the boat ride safe and as smooth as a smaller boat can be on open water, and while he didn’t talk at many stops, when he did choose to talk, he was very informative, knowledgeable, and passionate about the sites and history he was describing. Hot tip: watch the HBO Documentary “Houston, We Have a Problem!” for some interesting and entertaining history about Tito, Yugoslavia, and the 1960s US space program. It could give you a little more context for some of the sights you’ll see on Vis Island:)
Jelena did most of the guide work and made sure we all stayed hydrated. She was friendly and engaged, and clearly loves her beautiful country and is happy to share the love.
I chose this company because I didn’t want to be packed into a boat with 50 other people, and this company’s boats hold 12. On our day, we only had six travelers, so we had tons of space to move around. It may be a little tight if all 12 are on board and seated (benches around the outside of the boat), but the benches are shaded, and there is space to lie down on a padded deck area on the back of the boat.
They provide ample drinking water, pool noodles (foam floats), and masks. The water is beautifully clear, so if you want to snorkel, bring your own. Also, there is a stop for lunch, but it’s not until the last stop, so eat a hearty breakfast or bring some snacks. You’ll be hungry after all the swimming!
The lunch stop for us was on Vis Island at Dal Mare, a seafood restaurant. I ordered the grilled shrimp and received what I would call langoustines—not what I was expecting or wanting, so just a heads up! Others at the table got the calamari, the risotto, and the steak salad, and all were reported as excellent.
Overall: highly recommended trip, especially if you’ve been overheating in Split and want a refreshing, windy escape!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review of your Blue Cave & Five Islands experience with Captain Kazimir and Jelena! We are absolutely delighted to hear that, despite the Blue Cave being closed due to sea conditions, you still had such a memorable and enjoyable day on the water.
Unfortunately, the sea is something we can never control, and the safety of our guests always has to come first. We completely understand that missing the Blue Cave can initially feel disappointing, but we are very happy to hear that the alternative experience turned out to be such a positive one for your group. Having more time for swimming, exploring the islands, enjoying the scenery, and visiting another beautiful cave can sometimes create an even more relaxed and authentic day on the Adriatic. And, as you mentioned, avoiding the long queues that can sometimes form at the Blue Cave is certainly an unexpected bonus!
We are especially happy to hear your kind words about Captain Kazimir. The open sea can be unpredictable, particularly when traveling between the islands, so his experience and attention to safety are extremely important. We will be sure to pass along your compliments regarding his knowledge and passion as well. Although he may not speak continuously at every stop, we love that you noticed how much information and enthusiasm he shares when describing the places and history that are meaningful to him.
And thank you for the fantastic documentary recommendation! Your suggestion about Houston, We Have a Problem! is a wonderful addition for anyone interested in learning a little more about Tito, Yugoslavia, Vis, and the fascinating military and political history connected with the island. Vis has so many layers of history that are not immediately visible when you first arrive, and having some background knowledge can definitely make the experience even more interesting.
We are also very pleased that Jelena made such a positive impression on you. Keeping everyone comfortable, hydrated, engaged, and enjoying themselves throughout a full day at sea is an important part of the job, and it sounds like she did exactly that. Her love for Croatia and the islands is something our guests often notice, and we are happy that her enthusiasm helped make your day special.
It is great to hear that the smaller boat was exactly what you were looking for. One of the reasons we operate with smaller groups is precisely so that guests can enjoy the islands without feeling like they are part of a huge crowd. Having only six guests on your particular departure gave you even more room to relax, move around, and enjoy the ride. We also appreciate you mentioning the different seating areas and shaded benches, as this can be helpful information for future guests when deciding which type of tour is right for them.
Thank you as well for mentioning the equipment and refreshments we provide. Clear Adriatic water is one of the highlights of this trip, and bringing your own snorkeling equipment is indeed a great idea for anyone who particularly enjoys exploring underwater. There is so much to see beneath the surface, and even a simple swim can be an unforgettable part of the day.
Your advice about breakfast and snacks is also very useful! With all the swimming, sunshine, fresh air, and traveling between the islands, guests can certainly work up an appetite before reaching the lunch stop. We are glad that you enjoyed the atmosphere at Dal Mare and that the other members of your group were happy with their meals. We are sorry that the grilled shrimp were not what you expected, though — thank you for pointing that out. Langoustines and shrimp can sometimes be described differently depending on the local terminology and preparation, but we completely understand that when you order one thing, you expect to receive exactly that.
Most of all, thank you for your overall recommendation and for capturing what makes these tours so special. A day on the Adriatic really is a wonderful way to escape the summer heat of Split — the wind, the sea, the swimming, the islands, and the feeling of being away from the city all come together to create a very different experience.
We truly appreciate your trust in choosing our company, and we are especially happy that the smaller-group concept, our crew, and the alternative itinerary exceeded your expectations even on a day when the sea conditions prevented us from visiting the Blue Cave.
It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back to Croatia and the Dalmatian islands again someday. Perhaps on your next visit the sea will cooperate and you will finally get to see the Blue Cave — but hopefully with just as many beautiful memories along the way!
Thank you again for traveling with us and for recommending our tour. Safe travels and all the best 🌊☀️
Amazing speed boat day
A blissful enjoyable day … whilst the sea conditions meant we couldn’t visit the blue cave, this didn’t detract from an awesome day of swimming and snorkelling in crystal clear waters, and visiting some fabulous islands.
