“You will spend most of the time on the island. Bring cash for drinks(3,5€+) and sunbed! They won’t take card or check. If you don’t want to have a sunbed, which cost 10€ for two beds in 2024, you need a mattress and a parasol for the cobble beach. The boat doesn’t stay on the island for the 3h you will spend there so you have to bring what you need, or cash.

'Snorkeling' was with goggles but without snorkel "because of hygiene reasons". Visit to the blue cave was cool but kind of crowded, as the cave is not very large but our group was (± 12 kayaks).”

“A nice, short cruise for families with children. There is time for swimming and watching fish. Children can watch fish through the glass bottom. Drinks included. We did not see the lighthouse, the route probably varies depending on the day. A permanent point is swimming on Kamenjak and the possibility of entering the cave on your own. The crew, especially the mermaid, is very nice and helpful. The children had a great time. I highly recommend it!”
