Trogir to the Blue Lagoon: Private Boat Tour with Snorkeling and Lunch
Spend a day from Trogir on a private wooden boat exploring Čiovo’s hidden bays and the crystalline Blue Lagoon. This combined history-and-snorkel trip pairs a UNESCO town walk with two hours of swimming, snorkeling, and a onboard Dalmatian lunch.
The Experience
Before You Go
Protect Posidonia
Avoid anchoring on seagrass (Posidonia); ask the captain to use mooring or a marker buoy to protect beds.
Pack reef-safe sunscreen
Use reef-safe sunscreen to reduce chemical impact on marine life and reapply after swimming.
Prevent seasickness
If you get motion sick, take medication before departure and sit mid-boat for a steadier ride.
Bring cash for extras
Carry small euros or kuna for extra drinks, tips, or souvenir purchases in small coastal towns.
