Escape the city heat and crowded beaches. Discover hidden coves of Ugljan and Ošljak with a local skipper who knows all the secrets.
Make One Day of Your Vacation Extraordinary

Ugljan & Ošljak Boat Trip Itinerary
Point 1: Your Private Paradise (Hidden Bays)
Escape the tourist traps and drop anchor in the serene, turquoise waters of Kostanj Bay. Whether you want to dive into the vibrant underwater world with our snorkeling gear or simply share a playful swim in the shallows with your family, the choice is yours. Prefer to stay dry? Relax on our sun-soaked deck while we serve you refreshing drinks – this is your time to disconnect and recharge.
Point 2: The Island Where Time Stands Still (Ošljak)
Step into a Mediterranean fairytale on Ošljak, the Adriatic’s smallest inhabited island. Leave the world behind as you wander through fragrant pine forests and olive groves, or hike the 90m peak for a panoramic view that will take your breath away. If you’re a water soul, the island’s rocky coast offers some of the most pristine snorkeling spots in the region. Here, with no cars and only 23 locals, you are the master of your own peace.
Point 3: Coastal Charm & Islet Secrets (Preko & Galevac)
Experience the authentic island lifestyle in Preko. Stroll along the charming seaside promenade, treat your taste buds to local delicacies in a traditional konoba, or take a short, 80-meter swim to the emerald islet of Galevac. There, a hidden Franciscan monastery awaits your discovery. Finish your afternoon lounging on the sandy shores of Jaz beach – it’s the perfect, high-end conclusion to your island expedition.

Luka was amazing….
Luka was amazing. Swimming at the best spots and lunch at the best local fishing village was very memorable. He is a great guide. Highly recommended. Just tell him what you want to do. That’s what locals are all about.

Worth it for a local experience!
We had an amazing time with Luka! We swam in two spots – one was a very sandy beach with almost no one else around. He dropped us at Osljak Island and we walked the whole perimeter in about 30 minutes. Then we swam briefly there and had lunch at Srdela Snack in Kali, which is Luka’s favorite. He ordered us lots of fish to try! It was a great day!

Great day out
Our guide Christian was excellent- he looked after us really well and we felt very safe. Options were given to choose snorkeling or walking. The boat was super comfortable and snorkeling equipment and drinks provided.
