Description
- Hvar, the old town Explore this favorite holiday destination for celebrities and yachties, also famous for its eight centuries old architecture and the first ever public theater in Europe built in the center of the city. The Fortica Fortress is overlooking the bay and keeping the town safe. - Pakleni Islands An amazing collection of fourteen untouched islands that attract with its hidden beaches, deserted lagoons and bays are the loveliest part of the whole Croatian riviera. Dense pine trees forests emerging from the deep blues of the Adriatic Sea are just the perfect setting for the best vacation. - Red rocks If you leave Hvar by boat towards St. Nedjelja, after the coves Dubovica and Pišćena you will find Red rocks, a natural phenomenon of vertically disintegrated reddish cliffs which steeply drop into the sea. The unusual play of the natural force of the sea and rain has left its mark in the layers of limestone creating an impressive masterpiece of nature.

Private Tour in Split
We had a great full day on the water with Leonarda and Josip. Very attentive and accommodating. We never felt rushed to leave the multiple swim spots we went to. Had plenty of drinks and snorkeling/swim equipment for our family of 5 to use. Would reccomend 10/10 to anyone wanting a boat tour in Split!

BEST DAY EVER…worth every penny!! 🤩
We had the best day! Ante created an amazing itinerary for us and recommended the perfect restaurant for lunch. The trip had everything, superb boat with lots of drinks and snacks, snorkelling equipment and towels were provided. We stopped at some beautiful locations for swimming along the way, even getting to jump off the red rocks. Honestly, book this trip - it was worth every penny and you will not be disappointed!!

Wonderful day in the water exploring Hvar and Pakleni islands.
We had a great day with Luka. We enjoyed our time exploring the lovely city of Hvar and had time for leisurely swimming and enjoying the day. Lukas recommendation for lunch was delicious and off the beaten path. Great way to get away from the crowds and get time in the Adriatic. Highly recommend!

An unforgettable day around Hvar and the Pakleni Islands
Best day of our trip. This private tour around Hvar and the Pakleni Islands was seamless from start to finish — a comfortable boat, gorgeous swimming spots, and a relaxed pace that let us enjoy everything on our own terms. Joseph and Leonarda made it truly special. Both were exceptional — friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to giving us the best possible experience. They knew all the right places to stop and made us feel completely looked after. Excellent value, beautifully organized, and a crew that clearly loves what they do. If you're considering this tour, book it — and hope you get Joseph and Leonarda. Thank you for an unforgettable day on the water!

Private boat tour that included brac, hvar, Pakleni islands
We had an incredible private boat tour today—easily one of the highlights of our trip. The captain, George, and co-captain, Phillip, were fantastic from start to finish: professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. They took us to some absolutely stunning spots, gave great local insight along the way, and made sure everything felt relaxed but perfectly organized. The boat was spotless, the pacing was ideal, and they were always one step ahead—whether it was finding the best views or making sure we were comfortable. What really stood out was how personal the experience felt. It never felt like a “tour”—more like spending the day with locals who know and love the area. Highly recommend to anyone considering a private boat day—you won’t regret it.

Trip Hvar Pakleni
Our boat charter in Croatia was an unforgettable experience! We had the best time ever exploring Split and the breathtaking islands. A huge shoutout to Captain Joseph and First Mate David, who were absolutely amazing. Their expertise, hospitality, and friendly vibe made all the difference—we truly wouldn’t have had such a fantastic time without them. They guided us to hidden coves, picturesque coastal villages, and ensured every detail was perfect. The boat was spacious and comfortable, ideal for soaking in the stunning views. We can't recommend this charter enough for anyone wanting to discover Croatia from the sea!
