The Route from Split to Trogir and Beyond
The journey kicks off from Split or Slatine, with the vessel leaving around 9:15 AM from Split. The ride along the south side of Island Ciovo provides scenic views and a chance to see Gospe od Prizdinice, one of the island’s oldest churches.
The first stop is Trogir, arriving at 11:00 AM, where you have an hour to explore this UNESCO World Heritage site. The tour guides lead you through highlights such as Kamerlengo Tower, St. Lovre Cathedral, and the Three of Love and Kairos reliefs. The short visit offers a taste of Trogir’s medieval charm and architectural beauty.
Blue Lagoon: Swimming, Snorkeling, and Water Fun
After Trogir, the vessel heads to the Blue Lagoon, arriving around 12:45 PM. This famous turquoise bay is known for its clear waters and inviting swimming and snorkeling opportunities. During the 2-hour stay, travelers can enjoy snorkeling equipment, use of the water slide onboard, and sunbathe.
A delicious lunch is served en route from Trogir to Blue Lagoon. The meal options include fish, meat, or vegetarian dishes, ensuring a choice for everyone. Drinks are complimentary throughout the day, including water, wine, and homemade Iced Tea.
Exploring Island Solta and the Shipwreck at Neujam Bay
The tour continues with a 45-minute voyage to Island Solta, specifically Neujam Bay. Here, the vessel anchors close to the sunken ship Kontessa, allowing guests to explore the shipwreck during a dedicated snorkeling session around 4:00 PM.
On the way, there’s a liquorice tasting, adding a flavor of local tradition before the water-based activities. The bay provides a scenic setting for relaxation and underwater discovery.

Why This Tour Stands Out

The lunch served onboard adds convenience, and the water slide and snorkeling gear enhance the water experience. The professional operator with over 10 years of experience ensures reliability and safety, making it a good choice for travelers seeking a full, active day with easy logistics.
