The 4 Sailing Trips with an Open Bar in Croatia That Earn Their Price

1.Full-Day Catamaran Cruise to Hvar & Pakleni Islands with Food and free Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 670 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $119Our pick

Set sail from Split on the Summer Blues catamaran for three swim stops, a guided walk through Hvar, lunch, snacks, and unlimited beer, wine, soft drinks, water, and coffee. Guides such as Manuela and Mia help keep the day friendly and lively, with music and dancing on the ride home.

“We had an good experience on this all-day excursion!. The crew was absolutely fantastic, professional, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. They made sure everyone felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the trip. The sights were breathtaking, and we loved every stop along the way. Tip: If you're prone to motion sickness, be sure to bring some motion sickness pills with you as it is not smooth sailing and you hit quite a few swells. They do serve you a pastry for breakfast, lunch after the Hvar stop and then fruit and muffins after a swim stop in the late afternoon.”

4.Catamaran Tour with Food & Drinks

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 16 reviews · from $106

Cruise from Supetar around Brač on a mega catamaran with two one-hour swim stops, lunch, fruit, cake, and unlimited drinks. You’ll visit Golden Horn beach, then ride inland to Vidova Gora before returning to Supetar by panoramic bus.

“The title "culinary tour" is incorrect. We had chicken salad and a muffin... The boat was delayed due to weather conditions, which cut our time in Bol in half! However, Vidova Gora is beautiful, but 20 minutes is too short.”
