Details
Experience a magical evening aboard our pirate boat on this dolphin watching boat trip in Vrsar! We welcome you with an aperitif and set course towards the open sea. On the way you will have a great panoramic view of the towns of Poreč and Rovinj on the western coast of Istria.
As we move away from the coast, the most exciting part of the trip begins: watch out for the friendly dolphins that live here in the Adriatic Sea. You will get the chance to see them up close as they swim around our boat and jump out of the water.
On the way back to Vrsar, you will observe the evening sun illuminate the picturesque coastline. With a glass of Istrian white wine in your hand, you can sit back, relax and end the day in this very special atmosphere.

Beautiful experience in a very nice looking little wooden ship. We were delighted to see all the dolphins jumping happily in the sunset - and all in all we had amazing time. Warm recommendations!

It was just awesome! The crew is polite and supporting, they are just on time with everything. When you start to feel a little bit of 'enough of this or that' something new starts right away. It's a well built up tour. Totally recommended!

The pirate ship was fantastic, and so was the crew.
