Our six-hour boat trip around the Rovinj archipelago includes stops for swimming and snorkeling at the most beautiful locations, with magnificent panoramic views of Rovinj and the surrounding islands. The price includes a freshly prepared fish lunch, served with local wine and soft drinks. Also included is a welcome drink for refreshment before the start of the cruise.

The trip starts from the Rovinj Port, from the Mali Mol pier, and the cruise starts along the old town, the island of Katarina, Banjole, Crveni otok (also known as Sveti Andrija and Maškin), and Šturago.

The first swimming break (if available) is at the cave on the island of Banjole (about 20 minutes), an ideal place for diving and exploring the underwater world.

The second swimming break is on the island of Sveti Ivan, where the historic Sveti Ivan lighthouse is located. This unique stone, octagonal lighthouse was built during the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the 1850s. It is 23 meters high and offers spectacular views to those who climb to the top. The island is only 70 meters long and 50 meters wide, but has a small harbor for docking.

Although the island’s terrain is rocky, it is covered with rich Mediterranean vegetation that provides pleasant shade during hot summer days. For those who love the sun, this is the perfect place for sunbathing, swimming and diving. The depth of the sea around the island varies from 10 to 40 meters, and the area is popular with divers due to the rich marine life, the possibility of encountering dolphins and exploring shipwrecks.

On the island of Sveti Ivan, there is the first long break of approximately 1.5 hours, during which lunch is served with a fresh fish, meat or vegetarian menu prepared from local sources. Lunch is particularly notable for tomatoes from Sandro’s garden, which provide additional freshness and a home-made flavor.

After lunch, we head towards the islets of Dvije Sestrice, where there is a second swimming break, and then a third, short break of up to 30 minutes on a smaller island nearby.

Depending on the quality of the water in the swimming areas, we will arrange for another swimming spot, such as Limski kanal or similar.

The fish is prepared on the grill with homemade olive oil and spices from our own cultivation. A standard or deluxe fish menu is offered, depending on availability. A meat or vegetarian option is also possible upon request. All meals are prepared gluten-free, and bread, homemade wine and soft drinks are served with lunch.

After lunch, we continue with a relaxed 25-minute sail towards the islets of Dvije Sestrice. These beautiful islands are surrounded by crystal clear sea where you will want to spend the entire swimming break, enjoying the beauty of the exotic seabed.

Even if you don’t want to return, the return to Rovinj will be pleasant and peaceful. Sailing through the Adriatic, the smell of the sea and Mediterranean vegetation, as well as the possibility of meeting playful dolphins, will make the return trip a special experience.
