We were lucky enough to go on the Half Day Sailing Experience with Drinks, GoPro, SUP, and found the experience to be absolutely delightful and above and beyond our expectations. Before we left the marina, we were given a few options of where we might like to go. These ranged from popular snorkelling and swimming spots recommended by the skipper to a more scenic tour around the nearby nature reserve islands. Our skipper, Silvano, was absolutely brilliant and great company throughout our time on board. He was very easy to have a conversation with and a pleasure to spend time with. Whilst sailing, he was confident and professional, and there was never a moment when we felt unsafe. Silvano was excellent. There were two of us, along with a family of four. The boat was more than big enough to accommodate us all. The stern was spacious enough for everyone to sit comfortably, allowing us to chat and enjoy drinks together. The boat was also very stable, and because of this, guests were allowed to helm the boat under instruction. This is a great tour for families, as the boat is very spacious and accommodating. We recently (the following day) went on a sunset tour with another company, which we had booked before our holiday, and the service was not even close to what we received with Sail Istria. Had we not already booked the sunset tour with another company, we would have been back with Sail Istria in a heartbeat. Take your time to read through the other reviews these guys have — they will not disappoint you!

Paul was an amazing skipper and made our half-day boat trip in Pula such a great experience! We were celebrating a 27th birthday, and he made the day feel extra special while still keeping everything so relaxed and easy. He was kind, informative, and really personalized the experience to what we wanted. The boat had plenty of room, and it was honestly the perfect way to spend the afternoon. 10000000% recommend Paul if you’re in Pula!

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 enjoyed a lot this half-day at sea. This was our first sailing experience and it will for sure be a memorable one for our family (including our boys, 16 & 18 y/o). Our captain was skillful, very knowledgeable and friendly. He explained to the boys the basics of sailing and gave them an opportunity to assist him. It was a great experience for all of us and we will surely repeat it if we return to this place. Definitely recommend ed!

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!
