Enjoy a relaxing boat trip along the Opatija Riviera, passing seaside towns and dramatic cliffs, before stopping for a swim in a hidden blue cave - a perfect mix of sightseeing and time in the sea.

Highlights

  • Visit the magical Little Blue Cave, tucked beneath the cliffs of Brseč.
  • Cruise along the rugged coastline of the Adriatic.
  • Unwind on a hidden beache only accessible by boat.

Description

The tour departs from Opatija or Lovran and follows the coastline toward the old town of Brseč. The ride itself is part of the experience, with open views of the sea and passing coastal spots such as Medveja, Kraj and Mošćenička Draga, best enjoyed at an easy, unhurried pace. After about an hour and a half on the water, the boat reaches Cape Šip, where steep cliffs rise dramatically above the sea. Tucked into a small cove below, a hidden blue cave invites guests to jump in and swim inside. The boat stops here for around 30 minutes, giving you time to explore the cave, which is accessible only by swimming. Though small and only about 3 meters deep, it fills with glowing blue light as sunlight passes through the water, creating a truly special atmosphere. The cave’s natural acoustics often turn this stop into a fun and memorable moment. A short five-minute ride then leads to Peć Beach, set beneath the highest cliffs near Brseč. Here, guests enjoy another 30-minute break to swim, float, or simply relax in a quiet, secluded bay. The return journey to Opatija or Lovran is calm and scenic, rounding off the trip with wide Adriatic views and a sense of having discovered something a little off the usual path.

Includes

Drinks during the boat ride (still and sparkling water, soft drinks, Coca-Cola, Fanta, white and red wine, and herbal schnapps)

Important Information

  • In the event of unfavorable weather, we reserve the right to cancel the tour with a full refund. This tour departs twice daily from Opatija and Lovran. Guests can choose between a refreshing morning departure or a laid-back afternoon cruise, depending on their plans. It’s a popular choice during the peaceful low season, offering a perfect blend of relaxation and discovery. This tour is primarily focused on swimming rather than sightseeing. If you do not plan to swim, please note that the sun and heat can be quite tiring. For non-swimmers, life jackets are available upon request. We highly recommend cooling off in the water during the trip. Beaches along the tour can only be reached by swimming, but guests don’t have to go all the way to the shore. The boat stays anchored in the bay, allowing you to relax and swim nearby. A ladder on the boat provides easy access in and out of the water.

Easy cancellation
