He gave a commentary about the history of the area as well as informing us all about the wildlife. We enjoyed our stop at the sea cave for a swim and snorkelling session. We were given all the safety gear we needed and throughout we were well supported. It was well worth the cost.”

The guide was very good at taking us to different spots where we could see interesting things. We got lucky cause there was only 4 of us on board which was amazing - almost private tour!

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 599 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) · from $48

Meet guides under the orange umbrella at Pile Bay, then paddle along Dubrovnik’s walls and around Lokrum Island. Stop at Betina Cave for swimming and snorkeling before returning for sunset, a snack, water, and wine. Guides such as Dom, Mike, Roman, and Marin lead groups in English, though the pace feels more like a workout than a gentle sightseeing cruise.

“We were not off to a great start on this tour when we fell in very close to the beginning, but we were able to turn it around! Be prepared that this is not an easy tour - our guide Mike told us at the end that we had burned about 600 calories in the 3 hours. The cave was cool, but very rocky and very slippery. There were opportunities to snorkel or cliff jump. We saw a beautiful sunset and enjoyed a glass of wine once we got back! I was shocked that my arms weren’t sore the following day!”

“Andreas and Ianos (hope I am spelling it correctly) were great guides, answering a lot of questions about the island. The place is a pretty good place for snorkel activities but you have to venture a bit far out, especially by the old remains of a minoan port underwater. Food was really good, drinks at your discretion. Amazing experience overall!”
