Set Sail from Vrsar: Discover Rovinj & The Pirate Cave

Embark on an unforgettable boat excursion along the stunning Istrian coastline, starting directly from the port of Vrsar. Because our route keeps us close to the shore, you can expect a very calm and relaxing cruise, with sailing times between stops never exceeding 35 minutes.

First Stop: The Legendary Pirate Cave in Lim Bay

After a scenic 30-minute ride over the Adriatic waves, we arrive at the spectacular Lim Fjord. Here, we will drop anchor at the famous Pirate Cave. Dive into local legends as you learn about Henry Morgan, the infamous pirate who supposedly used this very cave to hide himself and his plundered treasure from the British fleet.

Explore the Charm of Rovinj

Next, we sail toward one of Istria's most beautiful destinations — Rovinj. Originally an island and now a breathtaking peninsula, the town is surrounded by an archipelago of 22 smaller islands and boasts stunning natural beauty.

You will have 2 hours of free time to explore this picturesque town and its 1,500-year-old history at your own pace. Wander through the romantic, narrow cobblestone streets, browse unique local art galleries, or simply relax in a seaside cafe.

Taste Authentic Istria

While in Rovinj, make sure to visit the vibrant local market. It is the perfect spot to taste and buy authentic, locally produced Istrian delicacies, including premium olive oil, domestic cheeses, and homemade honey.

Sail to the areas where the dolphins usually swim and catch a glimpse of these impressive marine animals as they play in their natural habitat. Relax on the deck and soak up the views while sipping on a refreshing drink of wine, juice, or water.

Very friendly operators! They prioritize safety, and when thunderstorms and rain were forecast, the tour was postponed. I think that was the right and important thing to do. When we finally set off, the boat did go to see the dolphins, but without bothering them. Unfortunately, other small boats did this far too much. It wasn't pleasant to watch.

The captain and his employee were very friendly and helpful. They also took us to another part of the sea so that we could really see the dolphins up close.

It was great! We saw lots of dolphins! However, we appreciated that the captain didn't harass the dolphins like the other boats did. It was really worth booking this tour!

A really nice boat trip When we saw dolphins, the captain slowed down and didn't try to chase the animals, but instead accompanied them at a safe distance 👍

The boat tour was excellent. The atmosphere on the boat was very family-like and relaxed. Captain Ivan entertained the guests with his relaxed manner and provided some information about the surroundings. There were drinks available as well. During the outbound and return trip, we saw dolphins; Ivan informed us about them and, out of respect for the animals, turned off the engine. I gladly recommend the tour. It was very beautiful.
