Details
Embark on an unforgettable boat trip departing from Opatija, with scenic swimming stops along the way. The journey begins as the boat heads to Rijeka to pick up additional passengers before continuing to the stunning Island of Cres. Cres is the largest Croatian island and a true natural jewel located in the fascinating Kvarner region. The first stop is one of Cres' many unspoiled beaches, which can only be reached by boat and provide transparent waters. Soak up the tranquil surroundings and enjoy the serenity of this secluded paradise. The first break lasts 45 minutes, so you have plenty of time to enjoy the beauty and peace, which this place has to offer.
Continuing on, the boat sets course for the picturesque town of Beli, known as the home of the majestic griffon vulture. Here you will have a generous 2-hour break with plenty of tempting options. On Beli beach, you can relax and soak up the sun or take a leisurely stroll through the historic streets of the old town and discover its timeless charm. For those looking for a bit more adrenaline, there is a thrilling zipline that floats above the beach. If you want to enjoy a delicious meal, there are also plenty of options, and we are always happy to help you with recommendations.
After our stop in Beli, we make our way back to Rijeka. On the way, we will have a final stop with 45 minutes of free time for a last refreshing swim. With beautiful memories and a new sense of calm, the journey ends with the return to Rijeka, marking the end of an extraordinary 8-hour escape filled with unforgettable moments.
