Insider tips

★Book the 10:30am departure to maximise daylight at each stop and beat afternoon crowds at popular bays.
★Bring reef-safe sunscreen and reapply frequently; the boat's partial cover means you're still exposed to strong Adriatic sun.
★Pack a light sweater or rash guard for the evening wine tasting in Sveta Nedjelja — sea breezes cool down as sunset approaches.
★Arrive 15 minutes early at the marina; the captain may adjust the itinerary based on sea conditions or wind.
