Blue Lagoon speedboat trip from Trogir with island swims

You’ll speed from Trogir or Split across open sea to swim in Croatia’s famous Blue Lagoon, wander stone alleys in Maslinica village, and relax at Duga Bay—all with a local guide who knows every shortcut and story. Snorkeling gear is included if you want it—or just chill with a drink in hand and watch the light change on the water.

The Experience

I nearly lost my hat before we even left Trogir’s old promenade—the wind off the water was no joke. Our guide Luka grinned and yelled something about “Dalmatian haircuts” over the engine as we zipped away from Kamerlengo Fortress. I’d picked the afternoon speedboat tour because I’m not a morning person (and honestly, who wants to rush breakfast on holiday?). The sun was already sharp but not punishing, and you could smell salt everywhere—like laundry dried outside, but cleaner somehow.

The first stop was the Blue Lagoon on Drvenik Veli. I’d seen photos online but didn’t expect that exact shade—somewhere between turquoise and mint toothpaste. Luka tossed us snorkels and told us where the sea urchins like to hide (“just don’t step there!”). The water was cold at first touch but then perfect. There were tiny silver fish darting around my ankles. A couple next to me tried paddleboarding for the first time; she shrieked when she fell in and everyone laughed, including some locals anchored nearby who waved their beers in salute.

Maslinica on Šolta felt sleepy—stone houses with faded shutters, old men playing cards under a fig tree. We wandered up a lane for coffee (the strong kind that makes your hands shake a little), and Luka pointed out which bakery does the best pastries if you’re ever back in the morning. He knew everyone; half the people we passed gave him that chin-up nod Croatians do instead of waving. After that it was Duga Bay on Čiovo for one last swim or just to sit with a cold drink at a beach bar where the music was mostly cicadas and clinking glasses—not bad at all.

I still think about floating in that clear water with nothing under me but sunlight shifting over sand. It’s weird how quiet it can be out there even with other boats around—you just hear splashes and maybe someone laughing every now and then. We got back to Trogir salty, sun-warmed, hair wild from the ride. I didn’t want to rinse it off right away.

What’s included

Your half-day includes bottled water for each guest plus use of snorkeling equipment if you want to explore below the surface; there’s also coffee or tea offered along the way before returning salty-haired back to shore.
