Choosing a boat tour in Zadar is not just about the destination — it is about the experience on the sea itself. The boat you are on, the skipper who knows every hidden corner of the coast, and the flexibility to go where others simply cannot. At ZadarVista, we take pride in two things above everything else: the boats we sail on and the personal service we offer every guest.
One of the things that makes ZadarVista different is that we do not operate with a single fixed boat and a one-size-fits-all approach. We work with a carefully selected fleet of trusted local vessels — and we match the right boat to every tour, every group, and every season.
Depending on when you visit and what you have booked, you might find yourself on a classic traditional wooden boat, a spacious catamaran, or a smaller vessel perfectly sized for an intimate private tour. In high season, when groups are larger and days are long, we work with bigger boats that offer more comfort and shade. In the quieter months of May, June, September, and October, smaller and more personal vessels come into their own — closer to the water, more flexible on stops, more like a day out with a local friend than an organised excursion.
What never changes, regardless of the boat, is the experience we deliver: knowledgeable guides, well-planned routes, good food on board, and the kind of personal attention that larger agencies simply cannot offer.
For the Royal Tour, we use a RIB speedboat — and this is no ordinary choice. The RIB is the only vessel that can take guests beneath the dramatic cliffs of Dugi Otok and into the extraordinary Golubinka cave — a sea cave accessible only by water, only under the right conditions, and only with a skipper who knows exactly when and how to enter. Most boat tours operating from Zadar cannot access this cave at all.
The Royal Tour on the RIB covers more ground in a single day than any other excursion available from Zadar:
🏖️ Sakarun Beach · 🚢 Shipwreck off Dugi Otok · 🌊 Golubinka Cave · 🏝️ Lojena Beach · ⛵ Mana Island, Kornati
The cliffs of Dugi Otok seen from the water at close range — sheer limestone walls dropping straight into deep blue sea — are among the most dramatic coastal scenery in the whole of Croatia. If you have done boat tours before and want something more adventurous, more remote, and genuinely off the standard tourist route, this is it.
We believe in transparent, fair pricing — and we understand that not every trip to Zadar happens in peak summer. Our prices reflect that.
Demand is at its peak. Boats fill up quickly, the sea is at its warmest, and the days are longest. Prices during this period reflect that demand.
The sea is still warm, the crowds are smaller, the islands feel more authentic — and our prices are noticeably lower. Often the best time to visit.
We are not a large agency with fixed pricing and no room for conversation. We are a small, local team and we want you on our boat. If you are travelling as a family, a group of friends, or you are flexible on dates — get in touch and ask. No hidden fees, no pressure. Just an honest conversation about what you want and what we can offer.
When you book through large platforms, a significant commission goes to the platform — not to the people actually on the boat with you. When you book directly with us, you get:
We have been working in Dalmatian tourism for over ten years. We speak English, French, German, Italian, and Polish fluently. We know these waters, these islands, and these parks better than anyone. And we genuinely love what we do.
