You step aboard a Quicksilver 675 as the old city walls of Dubrovnik shrink behind you and the Adriatic opens into a scatter of green and stone. The boat cuts through water that pushes and sings, steering toward three distinct islands — Koločep, Lopud and Šipan — each with a different tempo: caves and cliffs, a wide sandy cove, and olive groves that slope to the sea.

You step aboard a Quicksilver 675 as the old city walls of Dubrovnik shrink behind you and the Adriatic opens into a scatter of green and stone. The boat cuts through water that pushes and sings, steering toward three distinct islands — Koločep, Lopud and Šipan — each with a different tempo: caves and cliffs, a wide sandy cove, and olive groves that slope to the sea.
These islands have been lived on since antiquity and bear layers of Venetian and Dalmatian maritime history: monasteries and small fishing villages, terraces of olives and vineyards. Geologically the archipelago is karst limestone, carved by millennia of waves into cliffs, sea caves and hidden bays. Locals still bottle olive oil and small-batch wine; on Šipan you'll notice gardens and quiet stone houses that mark a slower island life.
Practically, this is a full-day private speed-boat excursion — about eight hours on water with stops for swimming, snorkeling and short walks ashore. Expect brief sails between islands (20–60 minutes depending on route), shallow bays with Posidonia meadows, and a chance to swim into the so-called Blue Cave on Koločep. Your skipper adapts the itinerary: anchor in quiet coves, tie up at Sunj Beach on Lopud for sand and cafes, or moor by Šipan’s small harbors to sample local fare.
Bring sun protection, reef-friendly sunscreen, a good pair of water shoes and a light layer for the return. Plan timing around midday sun for snorkeling, and keep an eye on weather — afternoons can freshen with a bora wind. This is an accessible day at sea that rewards curiosity and simple preparation.
Yes — the tour is private and life jackets are provided for adults and children, but infants must sit on a lap and children should be supervised during swimming.
