Private Boat Tour — Central Dalmatia

Private Speedboat Charter from Makarska — Central Dalmatian Coast

A fully tailored cruise along Croatia's most iconic Adriatic coastline, on your own schedule.


This private speedboat charter from Makarska puts you in control of your own Adriatic adventure, with a professional skipper handling navigation while you focus on the scenery, the swimming, and the stops that matter most to you.

Central Dalmatia is a region where limestone peaks meet turquoise water, and where the most rewarding spots are tucked away from the standard ferry routes. A private charter gives you direct access to hidden coves, uninhabited islets, and postcard-worthy beaches that remain out of reach for most visitors.

Your skipper brings local knowledge to every journey, suggesting routes and stops based on your interests, the weather, and the time of day. Whether you want a quiet morning anchored off an empty beach or a lively afternoon in a harbour town, the itinerary bends to suit you.

The flexibility of a private charter means you are never rushed. Snorkelling sessions, shore excursions, and lunch breaks happen at your pace, with no fixed group agenda pulling you away before you are ready to leave.

Tour Highlights

Fully customisable itinerary designed around your preferences, from hidden coves to historic harbour towns.

Access to Golden Horn beach on Brac, one of the most distinctive pebble beaches on the Adriatic.

Exclusive private use of a speedboat with a licensed professional skipper throughout the entire trip.

Visit Zecevo islet, a protected and unpopulated landscape with crystal-clear water ideal for snorkelling.

Optional stop in Hvar town, where you can explore medieval streets and the 15th-century Fortica fortress.

Reach the Paklinski Islands archipelago and choose between tranquil coves and lively beach bars.

Unlimited time at each swimming and snorkelling spot — no timers, no crowds, no rush.

Itinerary Overview

1
Departure from Makarska

Your cruise begins at the port of Makarska, where you board your private speedboat and meet your skipper. From here, the open Adriatic and a fully flexible route await.

2
Golden Horn Beach, Bol — Brac Island

Approximately 50 minutes from Makarska, Golden Horn is a pebble beach that stretches nearly half a kilometre into the sea in a distinctive V-shape. Its outline shifts with the wind and tidal movement, making it unlike any other beach in the region. Free time here is ideal for swimming, snorkelling, and sunbathing.

3
Zecevo Islet (Optional)

Located roughly 15 minutes from Golden Horn, Zecevo is a protected and uninhabited islet in the Hvar archipelago. The sea around it is exceptionally clear, and a beach bar provides a spot to relax after time in the water.

4
Hvar Town (Optional)

An approximately one hour and 45 minute journey brings you to Hvar marina, a natural base for exploring the town's winding stone streets, waterfront restaurants, and the panoramic Fortica fortress dating to the 15th century. Free time here can be spent as you choose.

5
Paklinski Islands (Optional)

Directly opposite Hvar town, the Paklinski Islands offer a range of experiences from secluded swimming coves to beach bars. Your skipper can guide you to the quieter corners or the more sociable spots depending on your preference.

6
Korcula Island and Peljesac Peninsula (Optional)

For those wishing to venture further, Korcula island is reachable in approximately one and a half hours from Hvar. The route passes along the Peljesac peninsula, offering scenic cruising through some of Dalmatia's most varied coastal landscape.
