The boat slips away from Split’s Riva and the city’s stone facades recede, leaving only the sea’s bright pulse and a line of islands on the horizon.
This half-day trip visits Trogir’s old town, the clear Blue Lagoon and the small island village of Stomorska — a compact cross-section of central Dalmatia’s coastline. Trogir, a UNESCO site, shows layers of Roman and Venetian rule in its narrow lanes and medieval cathedral; the surrounding islands are karst limestone, scoured by wind and wave into sheltered coves with pebble beaches and Posidonia meadows below the surface.
On the water, the skipper sets the rhythm: short runs between anchorages, time for snorkeling and short swims, and a pause at Stomorska where local fishermen still land their catch. The Blue Lagoon’s clarity invites snorkeling around seagrass beds; currents here are usually mild but can nudge inexperienced swimmers.
Practical guidance: arrive 15 minutes early to the Toto agency on Trumbićeva Obala 2 in Split, bring reef-safe sunscreen, and a light layer for the ride back when sea breeze cools. Snorkel equipment is provided but check mask fit before setting off. Expect roughly 5.5 hours total, with up to two hours at the Blue Lagoon, plus shorter stops in Trogir and Stomorska.
Best times are late spring and early fall for fewer crowds and warmer water; summer is busiest. Respect swimming areas and Posidonia beds by not anchoring on seagrass and packing out all trash. The trip is straightforward and low-technical — ideal for travelers who want a compact taste of Dalmatian coastlines and island life.

Trogir’s compact historic center reflects Greek, Roman and Venetian layers; nearby islands have long fishing traditions, evident in Stomorska’s daily fish sales.
