    Snorkeling Boat Trip from Pula
    "Highly recommended! Great weather, beautiful places to snorkel and saw a lot of fish. Also encountered divers from Orca Diving. In the meantime a rope had to be replaced, personally we didn't mind, the water was not super warm so you could warm up on the boat for a while. We were also on the water for 2.5 hours!"Isa, June 13, 2022
