Group tours put you on someone else’s clock in the middle of a crowd. A private charter gives you complete freedom to explore Dubrovnik’s secret spots and enjoy the coastline on your own terms.
Our private charter lets your group swim, relax, and explore quiet, crystal-clear coves entirely at your own pace.
“The most perfect day visiting Elafiti islands on a private boat. We were picked up from our hotel and Maro showed us all the beautiful landmarks. This day turned out to be the highlight of our trip. Don’t hesitate booking with them.”
“If you’re hesitating between a group tour and a private speedboat, choose the speedboat. Our skipper adapted the route to our wishes. We spent more time on the sandy beach of Šunj because that was where we liked the most. Worth every euro.”
“Absolutely fantastic. Maro was full of great stories and great drinks. He jumped in with us and guided us through the trickier portions of the caves. One of our favourite days this holiday, truly blissful.”
“Communication with Martina was always prompt and detailed. Our skipper Maro made our day so memorable. I highly recommend this small company for their professionalism and care.”
“We were lucky enough to get the Blue Cave relatively quiet. Having an experienced guide made the difference. Maro was on hand to guide us through all the caves safely. Lunch at Šunj beach, then ice cream on another island on the way back. Thoroughly recommend.”
“Best boat tour ever. Full day private tour visiting Elafiti islands. Our skipper was kind, knowledgeable, helpful and particularly attentive to our needs. Couldn’t have asked for better.”
“The boat trip was on a windy day, but our skipper was extremely skilful, so we felt completely safe. Very comfortable, also in wavy seas. We recommend Maro as a good skipper, that also provides a relaxed and cheerful mood on the deck.”
“Absolutely unforgettable. The Blue Cave was incredible. Our skipper Maro was truly amazing, knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we had an incredible time. Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Dubrovnik.”
“Great communication from Martina. Direct pick-up from hotel. Very personable. Competitive price compared to other providers. Great to support a small family-owned business. Skipper very relaxed, patient and competent.”
“Amazing experience. Brilliant skipper, and the lady who we booked the trip through was so helpful. Even provided seasickness tablets. Had such a great day.”

Ragusa Boat Charter is a small family-run business from Dubrovnik. Martina handles every enquiry personally. She will be the first person you speak to, and the one who meets you at your hotel on the morning of your trip.
Maro is our lead skipper, and the reason so many guests write reviews saying “the day was made by the person driving the boat.”
Small crew. Personal service. One goal for every day out: the best day of your holiday.
Space for kids to move around, snorkel gear that actually fits, and stops at swimming spots deep enough to jump into safely.
Room on the sundeck for the whole crew, a cold-drinks cooler that stays stocked, and a route that ends at the beach where you want to spend the sunset.
Our skippers are calm in every sea state. Life jackets on board for everyone, and stops planned around what’s actually comfortable, not what’s in a brochure.
Blue Cave and Green Cave the moment the light is right, snorkelling straight off the boat, and side stops most tours never make.
No extras. The price is for the whole boat and covers skipper, fuel, cold drinks, snorkel gear, and hotel transfer. If you want to stop for lunch at a restaurant on Lopud or bring your own food, that’s the only thing not included.
We watch the forecast. If it isn’t safe or comfortable, we move you to the next best day, or refund your deposit in full. You don’t lose money to weather.
Most guests book 2 to 7 days ahead in July and August, but we do get last-minute openings. Send an enquiry with your date and Martina will tell you the honest availability within 30 minutes.
Yes. Free hotel transfer for groups up to 6 people, from Lapad, the Old Town, and the cruise port. We meet you at the door.
For tours booked more than 5 days in advance, we ask for an €80–100 deposit to hold the date. Closer to the day, you confirm without a deposit. We take cash, card, bank transfer, or a payment link, whatever’s easiest.
Our skippers speak English. Martina also handles enquiries in German, Italian and Spanish.
Yes. The boat is yours for the day. Cold drinks are already on board, but bring anything specific you want. Or we stop for lunch at a restaurant on Lopud that our skipper recommends.
Answer four quick questions and we will let you know about availability, the exact quote, and other details.
