Split Speedboat Tours

The Best Speedboat Tours from Split

For several years now, Split has seen a big raise of boat tours that are in offer. Since the initial idea of the 5 island boat tour itinerary (which was first introduced a few years ago), the tour name, the destinations and and the small group experience really impressed the tourists and it gain amazing popularity. As there is now such a huge interest in the "Blue Cave and the 5 island tour experience", most boats operate only this tour as the interest in any other itinerary is much lower. So here you will see almost exclusively speedboat tours to the blue cave. There are a few exceptions, most notably speedboat tours to the Blue Lagoon, which are half day tours and a good alternative if you only have half a day to spend on a boat trip.

Regarding the type of speedboats that are in offer, a lot of them are inflatable speedboats with jockey seats for up to 12 passengers + 2 staff members. They are absolutely secure and safe to ride (in the case of bad weather the tour might get canceled regardless of the boat type). You can also expect them to have some plastic covers in case of rain or winds that might otherwise make you wet or uncomfortable.

Recently however a lot of them are upgrading to really beautiful plastic or even metal hull boats, which are more like a yacht, having a hard top cover where you are absolutely covered from all sides and safe from the sun, the winds and the sea and have decks that allow for sunbathing and a convenient way to climb on board from the sea. These boats also tend to have a toilet on board (which the inflatable ones don't have) but the tours with these type of speedboats are usually more expensive.

1. Speedboat Tours to the Blue Cave and the 5 Island Boat Tour

Since the first introduction, this itinerary really exploded in popularity and it's now hard to find any other speedboat tour.

On excursion: Deluxe Blue Cave Tour with Lunch from Split

The trip was amazing, our captain and tourguide (Ivana) were awsome. The only think I could think about as negative is the lack of some coverage for passangers (jackets, blankets,...).

On excursion: Speedboat Tour to Hvar, Vis & Blue Cave from Split and Trogir

Die Buchung war sehr einfach: Auswahl, Bezahlen, fertig. Und was gut ist ist der Link, um den Standort gleich bei abzurufen. Der Treffpunkt war daher leicht zu finden. Wir waren 10 Personen auf dem Boot, was das ganze recht entspannt machte. Die Freundlichkeit von Pia und Tino (ich hoffe die Namen stimmen) war echt toll. Wenn man etwas benötigte, hat Pia das sofort erkannt und geholfen. Tino führte das Schnellboot gekonnt von Hafen zu Hafen. Den Tourenplan konnten wir auf Grund der hohen Wellen nicht ganz umsetzen (blaue Grotte viel aus) aber die Beiden hatten eine Alternative die auch schön war. Überraschung: die Kosten für die blaue Grotte gab es zurück. (ist nicht überall selbstverständlich) Ansonsten können wir diese Tour nur empfehlen, da auch der gebratene Fisch zum Mittag top hergerichtet war. Ich denke, auch wenn es kein Schnäppchen ist, wird einem 10h ein Programm geboten mit Musik, guter Laune, Essen, Getränken und tollen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Unbedingt zur Burg auf der Insel Havr hoch gehen. Danke am die beiden. Tilman, Michaela, Marvin und Rovi.

On excursion: Deluxe Blue Cave Tour with Lunch from Split

Our 2 guides were so nice and helpful. My husband is blind and they cheerfully helped him on and off the boat without any remark that would make him feel bad. The islands are incredible!!!!! A 5 star experience. But the real star of the show is the Blue Cave. The water there, and in all the islands, was so blue-green....shimmering in the sunlight. It was so much fun swimming in the crystal clear blue lagoon and sipping on a fruit smoothie. Lunch on the islands was so good!! The best fish ever! It was very hot, but booking a boat with shade is critical for those of us that sunburn easily. Overall, it was a super trip!
