“Very nice boat tour, we stopped in a beautiful bay to swim and snorkel for about 15 min, then we moved to catch the dolphins (we saw a bunch of them for about 20 min). On the boat are sold cold drinks and there’s a little toilet. A very good activity overall, the only thing to say is there was no guide at all (but not strictly necessary for the activity in my opinion)”

Review of Poreč’s two-hour cruise among 20 islets, with Istrian views, drinks, dolphin sightings, practical tips, and honest value advice.
“We had a sunny yet quite windy morning, and before departure, the captain informed all families about the large waves and the potential risk involved. Despite this, everyone decided to take the risk, and we ended up having a wonderfully adventurous trip that was anything but boring due to the waves. The children had a great time, and the captain navigated in a zigzag pattern to ensure the waves didn't pose a danger to the boat. The islands were stunning, and the complimentary drinks and the friendliness of the crew made the trip even more unforgettable. I highly recommend this experience to others.”

“We had such a fun time on this trip! The captain and first mate were knowledgeable, professional, and very friendly. It was a nice tour size, so there was plenty of space for everyone on the boat.
