Your skipper controls the pace, with time for swimming, snorkeling, lunch, and optional cave tickets. If Dario and Antonio are your crew, expect Croatian music, fresh fruit, and local conversation along the way.

“Fabulous!!!! The boat was clean and super comfortable, stocked with waters sudas and fresh fruit. Our captain and skipper, Dario and Antonio were wonderful —relaxed capable fun and helpful! They played us Croatian music and shared about their lives on Hvar. They took us to great swimming spots, the red cliffs and a quaint wine tasting place with great appetizers and an underwater wine cave, then a fabulous seaside lunch before a final swimming stop. We stayed all around Hvar and that was plenty for us. They even did a pick up and drop off in Stari Grad for an extra 100 euros, which we appreciated. Great day!!! Thank you!”
