Private Lokrum & Elafiti Islands Boat Tour from Dubrovnik | Private | Boat Tour

On a bright Adriatic morning, step aboard Beneteau Flyer 650 SD at Gruz or Old Town port in Dubrovnik and claim a private slice of the sea for the day. This 8-hour Lokrum & Elafiti Islands Tour threads a route through the clear, steel-blue waters offshore and pauses at the green island of Lokrum — a protected nature reserve whose 11th-century Benedictine monastery, botanical garden and the small saltwater Dead Sea lagoon offer a quiet first swim away from the city’s crowds. From there your skipper curves west into the Elafiti archipelago, a scatter of limestone islands sculpted by karst and sea where sheer cliffs give way to pebbled coves and rare sandy shores. Koločep’s sea caves include the Blue Cave, where midday light filters through an underwater opening and turns the water into an electric, otherworldly blue — perfect for a snorkel or a hushed swim. Lopud’s Šunj Beach is one of the few sandy stretches on the Adriatic, a shallow bay ideal for families and snorkelers who want warm, calm water and fine sand underfoot. Between islands the captain will drop anchor at small, sheltered bays for private swims, snorkeling over Posidonia meadows, or simply drifting while the coastline slides by. What sets this trip apart is the private-boat format: the Beneteau Flyer 650 SD carries up to five guests plus skipper, so the pace is yours. Unlike scheduled group ferries, your day bends to your interests: linger over a swim, explore Lokrum’s botanical trails, or tuck into a cave and watch light play along limestone strata. The Adriatic here is typified by karst geology — ancient limestone worn into cliffs, sea caves and hidden grottoes — and marine life buoyed by the clarity and the bed of Posidonia seagrass, a crucial habitat that keeps these waters blue. Practical details are straightforward: pick-up is available at Gruz port or Old Town port, with optional apartment pick-up. Bring reef-safe sunscreen, water shoes for rocky landings, and a mask for snorkeling; your skipper will handle navigation and local knowledge. This itinerary is at once leisurely and pointed: a day that removes you from Dubrovnik’s stone streets and places you in direct contact with the Adriatic’s geological history, secluded beaches and crystalline water — an island-hopping escape that feels curated, private, and entirely yours. Plan to arrive in swimwear with a light jacket for sea breezes; dock bathrooms are available, but secluded coves have none. The five-guest limit makes this ideal for families, couples, or small groups seeking privacy. Operators require reef-safe sunscreen to protect Posidonia beds and will reroute around busy ferry channels. Bring cash for a beach café or simple extras. In high season, book mornings or late afternoons for calmer water and softer light and shade.
