Build your own day on the Adriatic, island by island
A private boat tour from Trogir or Split led by a local skipper who knows the Dalmatian coast intimately.

Snorkeling equipment and water are included. The boat size ranges from a 22-footer for six to a 33-foot Saxdor yacht for ten, and the day can run anywhere from three hours to a full nine.

The experience
What makes this different from a set itinerary is that you're not following a schedule someone else wrote. The skipper arrives with deep local knowledge of the mid-Dalmatian islands (which beaches have calm water for swimming, where the light hits best in late afternoon, which restaurants will hold a table if you call ahead), and you decide what matters to your day. Want to spend four hours anchored off Šolta's Gornja Krušica Beach, swimming and reading? That works. Prefer to hit three islands, snorkel at each one, and eat dinner on the water? The boat turns that way instead. The itinerary is yours to build.
The boat itself depends on your group. A 22-foot speedboat carries up to six people comfortably and works well for smaller groups exploring Brač, Šolta, or Drvenik. The larger 24–27-foot speedboat takes up to eleven and opens the full mid-Dalmatian range: Hvar, Vis, the outer islands. The 33-foot Saxdor yacht is the luxury option for ten, with the kind of space and finish that makes a full day feel unhurried. Snorkeling gear comes with any boat, along with bottled water. Fuel and the skipper's fee are separate and depend on which boat you book and how far you travel that day.
The skipper speaks English and steers based on what you want to see and do. If the water is flat and you're curious about a cove you spotted on the map, you go there. If someone in your group gets tired, you find a quiet anchorage and stay put. If the light is perfect at a particular moment, the boat is already there. This is the opposite of a tour bus schedule (it's the opposite of a rigid itinerary), and it's what you're paying for.
Is this one for you?Choose the medium boat if your group is six or fewer and you want to explore Brač, Šolta, and nearby islands at a relaxed pace. Go with the large speedboat for groups up to eleven when you want to reach Hvar, Vis, or the outer islands in the same day. The Saxdor yacht suits travelers who prioritize space and finish for a full-day journey with a smaller group. Fuel and skipper fees are paid separately and depend on the boat size and distance traveled.

Top questions
What happens if it rains?
It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.
Can I choose which islands and beaches we visit on the boat tour?
Yes. The skipper will suggest stops based on the season, the weather, and what you're interested in (swimming, snorkeling, history, food, quiet coves or livelier harbors), and you shape the day together. The itinerary is fully customizable, so you're not locked into a preset route.
What's the difference between the three boat options?
The medium 22-footer suits groups up to six and works well for Brač, Šolta, and nearby islands. The large 24–27-foot speedboat takes up to eleven and reaches all the mid-Dalmatian islands including Hvar and Vis. The 33-foot Saxdor yacht is the luxury choice for up to ten, with more space and comfort for a full day. All three include snorkeling gear and water.
How long does a private boat tour typically run?
Tours range from three hours to nine hours depending on what you want to do and how far you travel. A shorter tour might focus on two or three nearby stops. A full day lets you explore multiple islands, swim at several beaches, and include a meal ashore.
Is snorkeling equipment included, and where can we swim?
Snorkeling gear comes with every boat. The skipper knows the clearest water and calmest anchorages across the islands (Robinson Beach on Brač, Gornja Krušica on Šolta, and the coves around Hvar are all options), and you can swim and snorkel at whichever stops you choose.
What costs extra beyond the boat rental?
Fuel and the skipper's fee are separate. Fuel runs roughly 100–160€ for the medium boat, 150–250€ for the large boat, or 200–400€ for the Saxdor, depending on distance. The skipper's fee is 100€ for the medium and large boats, or 150€ for the yacht, paid in cash on board.
Do we need experience to book this tour, or is it suitable for families?
The tour suits all fitness levels and is family-friendly. Infants and small children can travel in a pram or stroller, and the skipper can anchor in calm, shallow water for easy swimming. Service animals are welcome. The boat is not suitable for travelers with spinal injuries or serious cardiovascular conditions.
