It is well worth it to do a private boat tour. We started on time in Split and headed to Miljna for morning coffee and croissant. Toured a bit and headed to Peklani islands. We swam at Palmissani beach. Be prepared to pay for beach chair rental about 100kuna. It was quiet and peaceful the entire time. We lounged and soaked in the sun and took a dip. Hvar was great to walk around. We had plenty of time to explore. Highly recommend this experience. Karlo, our skipper was informative and professional.

Day of fun

Anne_W, Jun 2026

The day was great! Luka told us that HVar and Brac would be an hour and a half just to get there so we did our own adventure instead. Went to Trigor and a private beach with snorkeling , cliff jumping and a great lunch at a nearby island.

A Perfect Day on the Water

Kartik_G, Jul 2025

We had such a great time! Our skipper, Stefan, was fantastic, and the boat ride was incredibly comfortable. We really appreciated the flexibility to choose the places we wanted to visit and when to stop for water activities—it made the whole experience even more enjoyable.

Memorable family experience - exceeded all expectations

Claire_E, Aug 2024

Best boat experience we have ever done. Guide took time to understand what we wanted to experience and delivered exactly that. We had a mix of excitement, exploration and relaxation. Wonderful sights and absolutely recommend.

Wonderful trip to Hvar and Brac

Lubor_H, Jul 2024

Out skipper Tony was great, friendly and relaxed. We stopped at Hvar (town) on island of Hvar, then some relaxed swimming off the boat, had a great lunch in the village of Milna on Brac. The whole family loved it!

Sunshine, Sea and Stefan

Susan_H, Jun 2024

We were lucky to have the “legend” Stefan (as he is known in the islands) as our skipper and our day could not have been more perfect. Beginning with great communication and patience as we were running late and his attention to the weather- we had a little rain in the am and he got us to island Brac in time to ride it out with cappuccino and croissants and then we had the perfect weather day! Stefan took us to swim, have drinks, asked our preferred lunch time and food and made our reservations for us. We felt like we had the islands and sea to ourselves as we cruised the Adriatic, had cocktails, listened to great music and enjoyed the perfect day. If you come to Split or the surrounding area, this private boat is a must do! If we had time, we would have done another day! Thank you Stefan!

Perfect day

Party of 6, had a fantastic time!!! Ate one of the MOST delicious lunches on Brac I've ever had! Water was gorgeous and enjoyed the boat. Highly recommend!

Great private experience in a comfortable boat

Alta_O, Jul 2023

Lovely day swimming in different places, seeing islands we hadn’t been to . Easy communication with our captain . Best excursion in split as we could set our own pace.

Dangerous driving by captain

Nikki_B, Oct 2022

The captain drove incredibly fast through rough seas and my entire family was flying out of our seats and bouncing around for 60 mins on the ride back. He never looked back once to ask if we were ok. At one point the pole to the awning broke and I had to hold it down with a rope so it didn’t snap off or hit us. My kids are 6 and 7 and I felt unsafe and thankful nobody got hurt. It was stressful and took all the fun out of the day. Also not worth 700€. The boat was a 9m riff and I was expecting something a lot nicer for that amount of money.

Beautiful Day Boating & Swimming the Islands around Split

DONALD_S, Sep 2022

We had a fantastic day touring the islands around Split. Mario was our captain and guide for day and he was engaging, knowledgeable and so much fun. We loved spending the day with him. We walked around the islands of Brac and Hvar and stopped 2x during the day to swim and snorkle. A great day all around and highly recommended.
