With snorkeling gear provided, dive into the underwater world and discover the vibrant marine life that calls these waters home.

“Amazing blue cave tour - The day started out wonderfully. We were picked up in the morning by our big boss Vedran who took us to our boat and explained everything that we needed to know in advance. He was such a funny and cool guy. We already knew our day was going to be great. Our skipper Jure was by far the best captain. He cracked us up with jokes all day long and drove us to some of the most beautiful places we have ever seen. Our friendly guide Laura filled us up on all the information that we needed to know about every stop and was so kind! They took us to a really amazing restaurant and we had enough free time on every stop to see all of the beautiful scenery. Our day was totally fulfilled. Thank you once again for this beautiful experience. We hope to see you again soon!!!” - Reviewed on 2022-05-11
