About the experience

Departing from the vibrant coastal town of Zadar, this half-day island-hopping tour invites you to experience the Adriatic like never before — aboard a 52-year-old traditional Dalmatian wooden boat, carefully restored and upgraded for comfort. This is not just a trip; it’s a soulful journey into Croatia’s maritime past, where every moment on board is rich with authenticity.

Begin your adventure with a welcoming drink and the scent of the sea as you sail toward the island of Ugljan, known for its olive groves and panoramic viewpoints. Then, drift to the peaceful islet of Ošljak, Croatia’s smallest inhabited island, where time seems to stand still. Finally, visit Galevac, a serene spiritual retreat surrounded by turquoise waters.

While gliding between islands, enjoy local wine, refreshing water, and light Dalmatian snacks. As part of the experience, you’ll also indulge in a wine tasting with canapés — included in the price — offering a taste of Croatia’s rich culinary heritage. A local skipper/guide shares stories and insights that bring each stop to life.

With free Wi-Fi onboard, safety gear, and meeting point assistance, everything is taken care of — so you can simply relax and enjoy the ride.

Spaces are limited — book your Zadar island escape today and live the magic of Dalmatia aboard a true piece of Croatian history!

    It was a perfect boat ride for our family (2 adults and 2 young girls). David our skipper was very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed some snorkeling, SUP and ice cream :) Enjoyed all the four hours and love the experience! Thank you.

    Great, Filip was a first-class tour guide and suggested lots of things to us. At the same time, he accommodated our every request and made it an all-around fantastic experience. He was also available for recommendations outside of the boat tour and gave us options for exploring the city, as well as for parties and festivals nearby. Great guy, great trip!

    The ride was amazing!! Max, our skipper, took us to 2 swimming spots, recommended us restaurants, took us for lunch and overall was an amazing company. He made sure everything was okay, offered us water, snacks and drinks. At the end of the day we were sad to leave the boat and wanted to rent out another day. We have no complaints. The boat was big enough for six people, and could’ve easily held more people comfortably. We’re sure going to rent it again next time we’re in Zadar.

    Extreme professionalism and courtesy, karlo always available for any doubt. Same thing for the crew: they extended the rental time by an hour and a half to allow us to see the sunset on the boat. Best service in town.
