To take a tour with friends or family, it is incredible to try this experience on this beautiful pirate-style boat. good price with snacks included to taste and appreciate some of the Split coasts in 45 minutes. the girls who work on the boat are very friendly and give us some important explanations of the place. thanks to the captain for the fantastic tour... the experience with friends was wonderful.

Great sunset cruise - recommend this trip

Melinda_A, Sep 2025

This is a lovely boat ride. We stopped to watch the sunset and some people swam. There are lots of stairs on the boat and it’s quite unstable so good to be aware of that. Overall very enjoyable and peaceful

For me it's amazing 🤩👍

It was a simple boat...

theresa_t, Jul 2025

It was a simple boat tour. There was very explanation as to what it was we were seeing. The boat stopped for 15 mins to allow swimming. I would choose a different excursion.

Great way to enjoy the coastline!

Philip_R, Jul 2025

We’d been to Spilt before, so we’d done the walking tour to see the sights… The “Pirate Ship” was perfect for a beautiful day. Relaxing with some wine out on the water was wonderful!

Fun

Emily_F, Jun 2025

Lots of fun, the ship is cool looking and it’s a nice way to enjoy the evening. We went for the sunset and it was beautiful.

Overpriced pirate ship boat ride for kids

LeongHooi_T, May 2025

Straightforward boat ride round the cove and back within 1 hour 10 minutes. No beach stops, limited choice of drinks and limited info given on the sights.

Morning Boat trip

Stephen_F, Jul 2024

Lovely relaxing boat trip. As soon as we arrived we were offered a drink and the opportunity to sample some homemade food, cheese, Olive oil etc. You could choose to swim for a while if you wished. Crew checked in with us regularly to offer drinks and make sure we were okay.

Absolutely too expensive

Vanessa_B, Apr 2024

We felt pretty fooled by this Tour - if you book this Tour at the harbor, you pay half the price for exact the same Tour. So - don t book it online...

Lovely way to enjoy the water and see Split and surrounding area.

Andrea_M, Jun 2023

The ship is a historic replica. The 1.5 hour trip was perfect. We had an excellent view of the scenery from the top deck. There was plenty of shade. The boat was uncrowded, and we thoroughly enjoyed seeing Split, the Peninsula and other sights from the water. We even had time for a swim in the beautiful water! We highly recommend this for a relaxing outing.

Lovely evening

pauljlomas, May 2023

Great value for money. Lovely evening on the sea. Guides were very friendly. We even got to see dolphins swimming.

Never skip sunset while in split

AbdelRahman_H, Oct 2022

Very nice crew and we took another trip with them the next day. Had the chance to see beautiful sunset and wonderful terrain view from the middle of Adriatic sea
