The Experience
The boat leaves Medulin with a welcome schnapps and a panoramic cruise through the scattered islands of the archipelago, with live commentary on local history. Your first real stop is Golumbera Cave, where the entrance sits hidden in the rugged cliffs—you swim inside to see stalactites and stalagmites that have formed over thousands of years. The crew describes the cave's geology and the unique acoustics as you float through it.
Next comes the Porer Lighthouse, built in 1833 and standing on a small rocky island just offshore. The crew shares the lighthouse's role guiding sailors through the Adriatic, and you get time to photograph the panoramic views of the islands and open sea. Then the boat drifts to a calm spot for lunch on board: you choose between fish, meat, tuna steak or a vegetarian plate, all served with bread. Wine, beer, sodas and water flow throughout, so the meal feels unhurried.
After lunch comes a 2–3 hour stop in Uvala Polje, a peaceful bay with crystal-clear water where you can swim and sunbathe. If you want to walk, a quiet path leads to the dinopath—real dinosaur footprints preserved in stone, about 40 minutes on foot. On the return journey, the boat circles the Premantura archipelago for a final panoramic cruise back to Medulin.
