A private nine-hour cruise from Split or Trogir that threads the crystal shallows of the Blue Lagoon and the fishing bays of Šolta. Expect extended swim and snorkel stops, a wreck dive at Nečujam, and lunch in a traditional island konoba.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto Matejuška pier as the morning light angles off the quay; the Adriatic breathes a cool salt gust that seems to push the boat gently away from the harbor. The skipper checks lines, the engine rumbles like a contained current — and soon the coastline of Split fades to a rim of stone while the islands ahead take shape: low, karst-roofed, olive-dotted.

Wildlife
History
Šolta and the surrounding islets have long been small-scale fishing and olive-growing communities influenced by Venetian maritime trade; many village konobas retain family recipes passed through generations.
Conservation
The area is popular and fragile: use reef-safe sunscreen, avoid standing on seagrass, and follow skipper guidance to minimize anchor damage to seabeds.
Reserve your spot on the Adriatica Tour ( Blue Lagoon and Solta) from Trogir or Split today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Protect against sun and glare
Bring high-SPF, reef-safe sunscreen and polarized sunglasses — the Adriatic’s reflection intensifies UV exposure on open water.
Secure small items
Use a dry bag for phones, cameras and any paperwork; sea spray and boarding steps are common hazards.
Prepare for motion
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before boarding and sit mid-boat where motion is gentlest.
Respect local dining
Plan to pay cash for small island konobas or confirm card acceptance ahead — some family restaurants prefer cash.
Swimsuit & quick-dry towel
For long swim stops in the Blue Lagoon and quick drying between stops.
