Escape Korčula’s harbor for a private three-hour boat tour that mixes snorkeling at a shallow shipwreck, swimming in a luminous blue lagoon, and a short hike to a 15th‑century Franciscan monastery on Badija. Ideal for swimmers and anyone who wants a hands-on taste of the Adriatic.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A low wake parts the harbor as your private skiff slips past Korčula’s stone quays, the island town shrinking into a strip of red roofs and cypresses. Salted wind pushes you toward a shallow wreck where plates of metal and barnacled ribs sit under bright water—an immediate invitation to snorkel among sudden schools of fish.

Bring a dry bag
Store phone, wallet, and a light layer in a dry bag—boats are small and splashes are frequent.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect marine life and your skin—apply before boarding to avoid repeated reapplication in the water.
Mind the anchoring spots
Ask the skipper where they anchor to avoid Posidonia meadows; these seagrass beds are fragile and common here.
Timing for light winds
Book morning or late-afternoon departures to avoid stronger midday bora or maestral winds common in summer.
Snorkel mask and snorkel
Provided gear is available, but a personal mask ensures a better fit and clearer views.
