★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 9,360 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $84Our pick

Spend four hours on a small boat from Dubrovnik, swimming into the Blue Cave and three Koločep caves, then relaxing at Sunj Beach on Lopud. Groups are limited to 12, drinks are included at each stop, and captains such as Anthony, James, Dominic, Roko, and Tino keep the outing friendly and well organized.

“Good day trip. James was fab. Dislocated shoulder from trying to get back on the boat. If issues with pulling yourself up, look elsewhere. James was great. Very helpful and made sure we were comfortable. He gave us options to get the ferry back but it would have delayed us back to the city. He was always checking if the big waves were hurting. All round good trip”

“Terrible trip. Literally nothing to do at Perast if you don’t pay extra for a boat ride. One restaurant open for a 1.5 hour stop, no shops, nothing. Our “tour guide” / driver was not a guide. He pointed out shopping malls and hotels under construction as we passed them as “very interesting” things. No information of cultural or historical significance, and the couple things he did mention weren’t factually correct. Another reviewer mentioned he had verbal diarrhoea, which is accurate. Nothing of value came from his mouth. There were 9 of us crammed into a minivan and he passive aggressively fought with my husband over having the armrest down…”

The beach stop was nice and relaxing and French fries and beer were yummy .”

“The whole trip was so great! The islands were nice, with the last one being the best because of the lovely sandy beach. In truth, the trip was made special because of the crew. They honestly went above and beyond to ensure that everyone was well taken care of. They were all so kind, and unfortunately I did not get all their names but Emily and Brožo (I think that’s how it’s spelled), who was the captain, were the absolute best. I can’t recommend this experience enough. This was definitely one of the highlights of my trip!Read more”

“First, I would like to say the ship it’s self and crew were fantastic and I would give them 5 stars if rating them on their own. The reason for the lower rating is I found the islands didn’t have much to do on them. Since it was to cold for swimming, we found ourselves bored with not much to do.”
