Island-hopping: Koločep, Lopud and Šipan
This private cruise concentrates on the three main Elafiti islands near Dubrovnik—Koločep, Lopud and Šipan—so most of the six hours are spent ashore exploring villages, beaches and bays rather than in transit.
Caves, hidden bays and crystal-clear swims
The itinerary makes time for swimming in famously clear Adriatic water, including visits to sea caves (notably the Blue and Green cave areas) and quiet reefs ideal for snorkeling and short drops from the boat.
Beach breaks and island restaurants
You can unwind on sandy stretches such as Šunj Beach and, if desired, pull ashore for lunch or drinks at authentic island restaurants—making the day both active and relaxed.
What the day feels like
What the six-hour private cruise feels like
The day is deliberately unhurried: a private skipper navigates between closely spaced islands so you spend more time swimming, wandering pebble beaches and exploring small harbors than on long passages. The outing is designed to be tailored to your wishes—whether that means extra time for a particular beach, a cave stop, or a seaside lunch at a local restaurant.
