What you can expect

This full-day boat tour explores the northern side of Cres Island, known for its unspoiled nature, clear waters, and historic coastal villages.

The tour departs at 08:20 from Opatija or at 09:00 from Lovran, followed by a comfortable cruise towards Island Cres. Guests are welcomed on board with light breakfast canapés served during the ride, with time to relax and enjoy views of Kvarner Bay.
The first stop is Skalete Beach, a quiet and secluded spot near the village of Beli, where guests have around one hour to swim, sunbathe, or unwind in crystal-clear waters surrounded by natural scenery.
The boat then continues to the historic village of Beli, located on a hill above the sea. During the stop, guests are free to explore at their own pace. A short uphill walk leads to the old town, where stone streets, viewpoints, and a rich cultural history await. For those looking for a bit of adventure, a zip line is available in Beli, offering views over the coastline and surrounding landscape. Beli is also home to the Griffon Vulture Visitor and Rescue Centre, dedicated to protecting these impressive birds that nest along the island’s cliffs.
After time spent in Beli, the tour proceeds to Dol Beach, the final stop of the day. There, the guests can enjoy another one-hour break for swimming and relaxation in a peaceful natural setting.
Following the last stop, the boat begins its return journey, with arrival expected around 5 PM.
