“A wonderful ride on the sea, but you have to take a jacket because of the wind. Very nice staff and a lot of interesting information about the islands around. We've seen dolphins, but not so many, because that depends on the wild life. You can't plan that. But the captain tried very hard to find some and didn't chase them as the other boats did. We were very satisfied.”

6.Guided Dolphin Watching Sightseeing Cruise at Sunset

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 522 reviews · from $34Best value

Join a Croatian, English, or German-speaking guide aboard the pet-friendly Kristina, a comfortable boat for up to 50 people. From Fazana, cruise into Brijuni National Park at sunset, search for bottlenose dolphins, and enjoy a soft drink while the captain follows sightings. Dolphin sightings are advertised at over 90 percent, but wildlife is never guaranteed.

“The cruise generally met our expectations. The highlight was the beautiful views of the sunset over the sea, which were truly unforgettable. Unfortunately, we didn't get a chance to see any dolphins, but the presence of a pleasant and funny guide more than made up for it. The free drink described turned out to be water or Coke served from an open 1.5L bottle into a plastic cup. Considering the price of the cruise, it would be a nice touch to offer small cans or bottles of beverages—just a suggestion for the future. Despite these minor remarks, the cruise was an enjoyable experience and I can definitely recommend it.Read more”

We got to see some dolphins which was actually really amazing but my disappointment was the dinner and drinks: I had fried chicken which was served with a cabbage salat and bread, no real side dish, and only alcoholic drinks available were red wine and beer- the description of the tour advertised a bigger variety of drinks.”

But even if we hadn't seen dolphins, the trip would have been worth it, because the sunset was very beautiful. It was very enjoyable after a very sunny day, that we could travel in a boat with wind and very great weather. Also, the food was very delicious. It's not worth missing it, if you're in Pula.”

Ihm wurde alles super erklärt und er wurde von Anna beim Reiten geführt, es war ein tolles Erlebnis für ihn! Mein Sohn wurde von Anja geführt, auch er fühlte sich sehr sicher. Da ich reiten kann, durfte ich alleine reiten, Es hat so viel Spaß gemacht und leider ging die Stunde viel zu schnell vorüber.

The crew searches for wild dolphins, offers unlimited free drinks, and returns you to Fazana. Dolphin sightings are common but never guaranteed.

But you can't just order animals to go to one place. We would book it again straight away and do the tour again. The crew was very friendly and accommodating. That's what makes it fun.”
