What could have been a bumpy disaster turned into an amazing roller coaster. I haven’t laughed that hard and long in a while. Capitan Emil had the perfect mixed tape playing the entire day. Emil also shared so many interesting facts with us. The islands were picture perfect. Until we meet again my friend!!! Buckle Up!”

The experience was great and would definitely recommend. Please note if you’re staying up in the mountains (Keri), chances are they won’t pick you up from your hotel because it’s a bit too far for them.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1,104 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $32

Take a three-hour speedboat from Kotor to the Blue Cave, Our Lady of the Rocks, Perast, former submarine tunnels, and Mamula Fortress. Swimming depends on sea conditions. Captains such as Boben have earned warm praise, but boat comfort, commentary, and punctuality can vary.

“The boat was way too overcrowded. There were not enough seats for everyone and when I said something, the driver said he is just the driver and it’s not his problem they overbooked the boat. He then told people they needed to move to other side of boat because there were too many on one side. Ridiculous. They were still selling spots when they should have been focused on the experience for those that already booked and paid. Driver was knowledgeable and did a good job explaining history and driving the boat - locations visited were awesome but it was uncomfortable being on top of other visitors and not being…”

13.Blue Cave, Vis & Hvar Full-Day Trip by Speedboat

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 976 reviews · 10 hours · from $147

Spend 10 hours speeding from Split to the Blue Cave, Komiža, Stiniva Cove, Budikovac, the Pakleni Islands, and Hvar. English-speaking guides such as Angela, Patrik, and Gabriela help manage cave queues and weather changes. Bring cash, swimwear, sunscreen, and a jacket for the fast ride home.

“It was unfortunate that we couldn't see the Blue Cave due to strong winds, but it was still an amazing day. Angela and Vlado served as an excellent tour guide and skipper respectively, navigating us safely through moderately rough seas, in comfort, while sharing interesting historic and cultural information and tips for each stop. I personally would've preferred more time at Hvar and Marinkovac(?) to swim, as the Blue Lagoon was not very swimmable due to strong winds, but otherwise a well-planned journey.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 890 reviews · 7 to 8 hours (approx.) · from $120

Set out from Hvar at 10:15 a.m. on a speedboat for Budikovac, the Green Cave, Blue Cave, Stiniva Cove, and a seaside lunch stop. The crew may include Antonia, Ivan, Antonio, or Dario. Expect fast boat rides, swim breaks, optional cave tickets, and weather-based changes.

“A fun speedboat tour out to the blue cave, and a stop to swim from the boat to a small alcove beach for 30 mins. The swim is not easy, but there is a tow line you can use to pull yourself to shore. There were actually no snorkles provided as advertised so bring your own. The green cave was not encouraged by our guides, so we collectively passed on it. After the blue cave, it just looked ok- we were ready to get moving again.”
