7.Blue Lagoon and 3 Island Cruise with Food and Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 1,969 reviews · 8 hours · from $81

Spend about eight hours cruising from Split to Šolta, the Blue Lagoon, and Čiovo. You get breakfast donuts, lunch, snorkeling gear, sunbeds, WiFi, and unlimited water, lemonade, and wine. The Nečujam shipwreck may no longer be part of the route, so expect beautiful swim stops rather than a guaranteed wreck visit.

“Similar to what others have said. Don’t give you wine until after lunch is served so be prepared for that. Altogether thought it was good value and they stopped for a good amount of time at each of the three locations. I would recommend and think it is worth it. Tuna burger was the best of the three options for lunch.”

“The trip was good and we enjoyed the island visits. However, although Nana worked hard we felt she needed more help. Food was delivered as fast as one person can serve 130 people but inevitably the burger and chips were cold. They were tasty but it wd have been better if they were hot! Not really gourmet in our opinion.”
