How requests work
Pick a trip, date and group size, then tell the skipper what matters to you.
The owner checks the boat, crew and forecast, then replies — usually within 30 minutes.
You only pay after the boat is confirmed. Free cancellation applies on selected trips.
Our operators
We work with a small group of local families who own their boats, know the channels and answer their own phones.
No fleet resellers, no last-minute substitutions and no boat you have not seen in the photographs.
“Luka reshaped the whole route because the wind turned, and we ended up in a bay with two other boats all day. Our kids swam for six hours. Worth every euro.”
“Engine off, twelve people, a glass of wine and the Zadar waterfront going orange. We booked it on our first evening and regretted not doing it twice.”
“We had a late flight and half a day to spare. Marin answered within ten minutes, met us on the riva, and it turned out to be the best part of the trip.”
