Dubrovnik Cruises, Sailing & Water Tours

Taking a boat tour while visiting Dubrovnik might be one of your best decisions

Dubrovnik is situated on the south part of the Adriatic Sea and the main sea current from the Mediterranean sea enters the Adriatic sea from the east side. The current goes along the whole Croatian coastline, then turns around Venice on the Italian coastline and then exits on the Mediterranean again. Consequently the sea here is one of the most clean and clear sea in the region. Taking a day cruise to nearby islands is in respect one of the most beautiful experiences.

The sea is so clear that you can view the sea floor even more than 10 meters deep. Dubrovnik was a strategic harbour so lots boats where arriving and leaving in Dubrovnik in the past, and this is your oportunity to glace at what it might feel like to experience the giant Dubrovnik walls from the sea.

Here is our top recommendation for day sailing destinations from Dubrovnik.

1. Elaphiti Islands

The Elaphiti Islands are the closest islands to Dubrovnik and have wonderful bays for swimming and other water activities. They also have great representations of small fisherman villages that will make you feel as you traveled back in time. Taking a boat tour to Elaphiti Islands is our top recommendation.

2. National Park Mljet

Our second pick is definitely the National Park Mljet. One of the most interesting parts of the island is that it harbors a salty lake which also has a smaller island with a famous Monastery. The National Park is definitely worth a visit and we highly recommend it for nature lovers! View all tours the National Park Mljet from Dubrovnik.

3. Korčula Island

The Island of Korčula is very historically famous island. It is believed that the famous explorer Marco Polo was born in Korčula and you can visit his house. Korčula has a very nice architecture and holds many stories so it offers a very interesting visit. Most tours to Korčula also visit the Pelješac peninsula so you can make a combined tour of the region. View all tours to Korčula from Dubrovnik.

4. Montenegro Coastline

As Dubrovnik is on the very south of Croatia, the border with Montenegro is very near. It might be a good idea to visit Montenegro as well while you are in Dubrovnik, and what better way than to do it than with a boat! Sail to the famous Kotor bay and enjoy a somewhat different culture and history. View all sailing tours to Montenegro from Dubrovnik.
