More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the stone pier at Matejuška under a big Croatian flag, the morning sun scraping a silver path across the Adriatic. The skipper eases the bow out of Trogir’s harbor and the water opens—stretches of cobalt, turquoise and the muted green of Posidonia meadows that seem to breathe beneath the hull.

Šolta has a long olive-growing and fishing tradition; Maslinica’s name derives from maslina (olive) and the island has traces of Venetian-era stonework.
Conservation
Posidonia seagrass meadows are vital here—avoid anchoring on them, use designated mooring spots, and follow local rules to reduce impact.
Reserve your spot on the 50 Shades of Blue today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring reef-safe sunscreen
The skipper will stop for swims in shallow Posidonia meadows—use reef-safe sunscreen to protect marine life and your skin.
Water shoes for rocky landings
Many shore stops use rock or concrete landings rather than sand; water shoes make entries and exits safer and more comfortable.
Reserve peak-season slots early
June–September fills quickly — book ahead for morning departures if you prefer calmer sea conditions.
Carry cash for local konobas
Family restaurants on Šolta often prefer cash for small purchases; bring kuna or a backup card for lunch and drinks.
