boat hire in Dubrovnik · Venom — Istranka (2015)
Description of Mario's boat without licence
Boat Without Licence Venom Istranka 15hp
My motorboat Istranka is a traditional Croatian boat that is 5,20 meters long. The official capacity is for 6 guests but my recommendation is 4 people for better comfort and experience. The boat has a small outboard engine of 15 HP so it can be rented also if you do not possess a boat license. I would prefer it if you have some experience before getting the boat yourself. I can give you short instructions when you take over the boat. The boat is located in Dubrovnik, in Sustjepan which is very close to the main port in Gruž. From there you can easily reach Grebeni reef, explore the beaches in the Dubrovnik riviera like Veliki Žali, Zaton, Orašac, or go to the island Koločep and Lopud. Fuel is not included in price. Please keep in mind that a boat license is not required. No security deposit needed! I would be happy to answer any questions you might have via Click&Boat's messaging system.

Nice Experience and Mario is very nice as well.
Mario is a great host. He gives you a nice introduct
We booked at 10 p.m. for the next day, no problem for Mario. Communication was fast and smooth. Starting point was at Tavern Bonaca not at the harbour Gruz - keep that in mind. Mario did a free pickup. Otherwise use uber. Fuel is not included, so bring some cash. We paid 30 € for a whole day trip, that is pretty fair. Get some snorkel equipment, some food/drinks and you will have an really awesome day.
Communication was great throughout, lovely little boat we were able to explore all the islands with ease and jump in thr crystal clear water. Would book again when next in Dubrovnik
Mario was an incredible host and walked us through working the boat. His recommendations for the day were incredible, we highly recommend going to Sunj beach. The boat was easy to operate and came with everything needed for a perfect day.
We are satisfied, Mario did his best to help us with any question.
Communication with Mario was very easy. Good value for money.
Mario was a great boat owner. He explained everything to us. The boat was great. Clean, spacious and ran very well. Exactly what we were looking for. I can highly recommend this boat to anyone.
Mário was fantastic! Wonderful experience overall! Was surprised with extra amenities on board such as snorkeling gear!
Mario is truly a fantastic man, and is kindness and flexibility made renting for him great! Do not the because of the nature of the man the boat does move only 7 mph despite having a 15 horsepower engine. But this is the best you will get without a license so highly recommend!!
Mario was great to work with and very responsive to our communication. We really had a great time on his boat. It's a small boat so having two of us worked well. Thank you Mario for a great time!! Highly recommend renting Mario's boat.
A unforgettable experience, Mario was great at giving us all the information we needed. The sights are amazing and the boat was fantastic at making the most of it. Would highly recommend
Mario’s boat was amazing, just what you need for exploring around. Definetly would rent it again. Mario was very helpful and kind so don’t hesitate to contact him
It was amazing! Thanks!
We had a great day with the VEnom Istranka.
Mario was super helpful! And he is an expert, gave us really good advices! Definitely recommended
It was a great experience and everything was perfect!
Our experience with Mario's boat was beautiful, although we occured some dificulties, Mario was very attentive and ensured our comfort and safety. We stayed in touch during our entire trip and he replied immediately to anything. Mario is a very friendly host and this boat experience was worth it 100%, definetly recommend.
Mario is a very involved guy. Even though we couldn't sail with his boat because of some issues he was very quick to give us some alternative options at least as good as what we paid for. Recommend him!
Great boat and Mario was great at showing us how to handle the boat. Was able to see the blue caves the 3 caves and the beach on the other island. We got to stay longer than most of the tours and found it was great value for money.
Had a fantastic day out on Mario’s boat. He was very informative and explained everything in detail to a complete novice. Would definitely recommend if you get the chance. Thank you Mario
Thank you very much ! We had a great time on the boat and saw gorgeous views! :)
Great little boat. It's actually a manual outboard if you have no license, no steering wheel but great fun for a trip to the islands. Not so easy to climb in or out for the elderly but for us 3 youngsters this was absolutely fun and a great day out! Thanks
The boat was lovely and we had such a great day. Mario is a top bloke and we look fordward to rent from him again.
Mario was so cool and welcoming. It has been super nice to visit the islands in his boat
Great day out on Mario’s boat. He was incredibly welcoming and friendly meeting us at the start and end of our trip. We found the outboard steering a bit tricky to begin with but soon got the hang of it (we are complete novices to be fair…). Would definitely recommend.
We had an amazing day on Marios boat. We could get it earlier and had the best day. Mario gave us a quick introduction. Thanks for the amazing day.
Awesome trip. The view from the captain was not so good but the rest was great. Beautiful bays found in zaton. Communication with the landlord was also top. The swim ladder was not stable enough, we hurt ourselves several times. Nevertheless a recommendation
We booked Marios boat for my birthday and it was such an amazing day. As soon as we booked it we had a message from Mario and from then on the communication was excellent. He met us exactly on time, took a few lovely photos and was super friendly. We will definitely be contacting him again next time we are in Dubrovnik. Thanks so much!!!
Very good organization, Mario and his friends are very nice, clear and quick explanation. The engine is slow but it is convenient for those who do not have a boat license
Easily contactable and very friendly. Explained and demonstrated very well but very quickly, giving us directions and then left us to it!
Amazing boat for the price!! Highly recommended booking this, he was really straightforward and very kind. Would book again here!
