We went on the 5 Islands, Blue Cave and Blue Lagoon tour yesterday. I would recommend but not for anyone with back conditions. Positives Our host, Emma, was excellent—friendly, informative, and engaging throughout the trip. The company kept us well informed, including updating us when the tour had to be postponed due to the weather. The pick-up location was easy to find thanks to the clear instructions provided. The locations we visited were all worth seeing, and Emma gave helpful information and recommendations on what to do, see, and eat at each stop. I would recommend bringing your own snorkelling equipment if possible. Equipment is provided, but the quality isn't the best. Negatives There were strong northerly winds creating large waves. While I understand the weather is beyond anyone's control, the skipper (a young lad, around 20 years old) did not appear to have the experience or training to handle those conditions effectively. Instead of navigating the waves at an angle and adjusting speed, he repeatedly powered straight through them, causing the boat's hull to slam heavily into the troughs. The impacts were extremely harsh. Two passengers were thrown from their seats on the outward journey, and on one of the return legs the skipper appeared to be racing another company boat, making the ride even more uncomfortable. By the end of the trip, many of us felt sick, bruised, and sore. The weather was challenging, but a more experienced skipper would likely have been able to provide a much smoother and safer ride.

The speedboat tour to the five islands and the Blue Grotto is interesting. The Blue Grotto is fantastic, and our captain planned the order of the stops very well, so we were able to get there without having to wait in line. However, the sites are far apart, and the trips of over an hour between some of them make the tour quite tiring, especially because, although the speedboat has a covered section, the captain makes most of the passengers sit in the back of the boat, where there’s a sort of mat that’s completely exposed to the sun. It’s fine during the first part of the tour, but by the end, it gets tough. I tried to sit in the covered section during the last stretch, but I wasn’t allowed to “because of my age,” according to the captain.

What to bring

Carry cash for the Blue Cave entrance fee, as card payments are generally not accepted.

Bring swimwear and water shoes if you plan to swim or snorkel at designated stops.

Pack essentials like sunscreen, a hat, and drinking water to stay protected and hydrated.

A light jacket is recommended, as it can get breezy during the boat ride.

Accessibility

This experience is not suitable for wheelchair users or guests with limited mobility.

It is also not recommended for pregnant travelers, individuals with back issues, or young children under 5 years old.

What’s not allowed

Swimming inside the Blue Cave is not permitted; however, swimming is allowed at nearby locations such as Stiniva Bay and Budikovac Blue Lagoon.

Flash photography is prohibited inside the cave to avoid disturbing marine life.

Additional information

The tour departs at 8am from Split’s Riva promenade; please arrive by 7:45am for check-in.

You can meet the team at the Brass Gate of Diocletian’s Palace (Booking Stand 16) or opt for pickup from Marulićeva 4.

Blue Cave entrance fees range from €12 to €24 depending on the season and must be paid in cash on-site.

The cave’s signature blue glow is most vivid around midday, making early departures ideal.

Tours are weather-dependent; in case of unfavorable sea conditions, delays, rescheduling, or full refunds may apply.

Boat transfers are included; if you are prone to seasickness, it’s advisable to take precautions as the ride can be choppy.

Please follow your guide’s instructions at all times to ensure safety and help preserve the cave’s delicate ecosystem.
