On the water · LUXURY YACHT CRUISES IN CROATIA
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 6 luxury yacht cruises in Croatia worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the thing to check before you pay a deposit.
Leave Zadar with a local skipper such as Edi or Ari for a relaxed 3 to 4-hour cruise around Ošljak, Ugljan, and Galovac. Swim, snorkel, visit an island village, and enjoy one Aperol Spritz or Prosecco. The small group is limited to 12 people.
“We Just spontanously booked the boar trip with Edi and it was great!Out friends recommeded it to is the day before and it was deffinitely worth:)!”
Set out from Zadar’s Foša harbor on a small boat limited to 12 people. Swim and snorkel near Ošljak, walk its quiet fishing village, then visit Školjić and Preko by Ugljan. Skippers such as Edi, Mario, and Mate provide drinks, local tips, and help throughout the half-day outing.
“Edi brought us to all the locations and provided guidance for all of our stops. Nice guy and looked after us with drinks. We had a great time on this trip but unfortunately there were not many fish to view on the day (mainly small sprats or that type of fish). Overall it was very enjoyable. Thanks Edi!”
Spend a full day on a private speedboat with Emil and Tonka, visiting the Blue Cave, Komiža, Stiniva, Budikovac, Palmizana, and Hvar. You can adjust the route to suit your group, swim from the boat, and use included snorkeling masks. Fuel, lunch, and the Blue Cave fee cost extra.
“Swimming and jumping off the speed boat! Tonka, our guide, was very knowledgeable and customized our trip based on our interests! Emmil, the skipper, was very personable too! Our kids ranged in age from 7 to 17 yrs of age.”
Spend about five hours on a comfortable boat from Split, stopping at the Blue Lagoon, Trogir, and Šolta Island. Crews including Bruna, Luka, Marin, and Doni are known for friendly service, music, drinks, cookies, snorkeling gear, and a possible visit from the famous Mojito Man.
“Book this boat tour!! We had so much fun. It was everything we were hoping for. It was relaxing, super fun, and beautiful. If I’m ever back in Split, I’ll be booking this again!”
You’ll spend a full day aboard a private luxury boat with skippers Roko and Dora, choosing your route among the Dalmatian islands. Pickup is available from any hotel or location, with snacks, drinks, and local guidance included. Budget separately for fuel, paid after the trip.
“I was very surprised when the skipper asked me for €420 for gas when the tour ended. This was not mentioned in the contract! I withdrew the money from the ATM and gave it to the skipper. There was no receipt for it. Because of this incomplete information on the advertising page, I would not recommend this tour to anyone. The rest of the tour was very good!”
Spend about eight hours on a private yacht from Dubrovnik with your own group of up to 12. Cruise past the city walls, swim at Šunj Beach, snorkel near Koločep’s Blue Cave, visit Šipan, and enjoy drinks, water, and attentive crew service. Lunch costs extra.
“We came back again this year and enjoyed the full day experience on a luxury Prestige yacht in Dubrovnik and explored the surrounding islands. Many thanks to captain Pero for his skillfull expertise that made us feel safe and sound. Also the boat was very tidy and well equipped with bevarages and water sport activities. Looking forward to coming again next year for sure!!”
