Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split

The best part of this private speedboat tour is the mix: you get clear-water swimming and snorkeling, but also time on shore in Trogir and Maslinica. In a single day, the route links several very different corners of the Dalmatian coast without asking you to plan separate boat trips.

I like two things in particular. First, a private boat gives your group more freedom than a shared excursion, and the trip is limited to six people. Second, the day includes more than the Blue Lagoon: you’ll stop in an old fishing village, have time for a traditional tavern lunch and visit a shipwreck swimming spot.

The main consideration is the price. At $844.78 per group, it is a substantial outing, especially for a small party, and you’ll need to pay for lunch separately. It makes the most sense when you can share the cost among several people and want a full day on the water.

At a glance: six stops, one long day

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - At a glance: six stops, one long day

  • Private boat for up to six: Your group has the boat and driver-guide to itself.
  • Blue Lagoon swimming: Krknjaši Bay is the main stop for swimming and snorkeling, with clear water and a sandy bottom.
  • Trogir’s old town: Guests starting in Split stop here for about 40 minutes, a handy chance for coffee or breakfast.
  • Maslinica on Šolta: Browse the waterfront and pause for a coffee in this old fishing village.
  • Lunch is on your own tab: The group stops at Restoran Turanj in Stomorska for about 1 hour and 40 minutes.
  • Snorkeling gear and light refreshments are included: Lunch and hotel transfers are not.

A private boat changes the pace

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - A private boat changes the pace

The day lasts about 10 hours, with round-trip speedboat transport from Split or Trogir. That is a long excursion, but the private format can make it feel less like following a crowd from stop to stop. Your group is the only one on the tour, and the trip is led by a driver-guide.

Private does not necessarily mean that every stop or timing is yours to redesign. The planned route covers six stops, each with an approximate time, and the overall day has a lot to fit in. Still, traveling with only your own party gives you a more personal setting than a large shared boat, particularly for families or friends who want to swim and relax together.

If you’re setting out from Split, the first stop is Trogir. The tour also operates from Trogir, so check your departure point when booking rather than assuming every group follows exactly the same first leg. The supplied schedule gives about 40 minutes in Trogir for those starting in Split.

More Blue Lagoon trips from Split:

Trogir: a coffee break among old stone streets

Trogir is a UNESCO-listed historic city, and the tour gives Split departures a short stop there before the island portion of the day. You have about 40 minutes, enough for a quick coffee or breakfast and a look around, but not enough for a leisurely visit to every landmark.

That brief stop is useful if you haven’t yet seen Trogir, or if you want a gentler start before the speedboat and swimming. It also adds a town visit to a day otherwise centered on the sea. If Trogir is a priority for you, plan to return separately for more time rather than expecting this stop to cover the whole town.

The stop is listed as free admission. Any coffee or breakfast you choose is extra, and it’s best to keep the pause relaxed but brief so you’re ready to continue with the group.

Krknjaši Bay: the main swim of the day

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Krknjaši Bay: the main swim of the day

The Blue Lagoon stop is at Krknjaši Bay, a natural bay between three islands. The sandy bottom and clear water make it the day’s main place for swimming and snorkeling, and the tour allows about 1 hour and 30 minutes here.

Snorkeling equipment is included, which saves you from needing to bring your own gear. Light refreshments are also available on board. The water is described as clear, with sea life visible below, though conditions and what you can see will naturally depend on the day.

This is a good stretch of time for getting into the water without making the whole trip a beach day. If swimming is the reason you’re booking, this stop is likely to be the highlight. If you prefer to stay dry, you’ll still get the view from the boat, but much of the appeal here is being able to swim or snorkel.

Maslinica: a village pause and a small beach

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Maslinica: a village pause and a small beach

The itinerary gives you two stops around Maslinica, a village on Šolta. First comes about 45 minutes in the village, described as an old fishing place where you can see traditional customs and have coffee along the main waterfront.

This is a useful change of pace after the Blue Lagoon. Rather than moving straight from one swim to another, you get a little time on shore and a glimpse of a working village setting. The stop is short, so think of it as a waterfront pause, not an in-depth visit.

A separate 25-minute stop at Maslinica Beach offers a chance for a quick swim. The beach is small and sandy, which makes it a pleasant option if you want another dip before lunch. The limited time means you’ll want to keep your beach routine simple: this is a short swim break, not a long afternoon on the sand.

Stomorska: a proper lunch break, at your expense

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Stomorska: a proper lunch break, at your expense

The tour pauses at Restoran Turanj in Stomorska for about 1 hour and 40 minutes. The tavern serves various types of dishes, and the stop gives you a chance to sit down for a traditional meal rather than relying only on snacks between boat rides.

Lunch is not included in the tour price, so budget for it separately. That extra time at the table is a welcome break in a day with several stops, and it lets you choose from the available dishes instead of being tied to a set meal. The specific menu and prices are not provided, so check directly if you have dietary needs or want to know what to expect.

A meal stop can also be the point where the day feels less like a checklist. You have nearly two hours here, a generous pause compared with the short village and beach visits. If you’re traveling with children, that seated break may be especially helpful after a morning of swimming and boat travel.

Nečujam: snorkeling near a shipwreck

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Nečujam: snorkeling near a shipwreck

The final listed stop is Nečujam, where you’ll have about 45 minutes for swimming and snorkeling around a shipwreck. This gives the day a different underwater focus from the sandy-bottomed bay at the Blue Lagoon.

Snorkeling gear is included, but the information doesn’t specify the shipwreck’s depth or how close you can approach it. Keep your expectations practical: this is a short swim and snorkeling stop, not a guided wreck exploration. Conditions at sea and visibility can vary, so the experience may feel different from one day to the next.

By this point, you’ll have had several chances to get in the water, along with a village visit and lunch. Bring swimwear and whatever personal items you need for a long day out, but don’t assume the tour includes hotel pickup or drop-off. You’ll need to make your own way to the departure point.

Is $844.78 fair for your group?

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Is $844.78 fair for your group?

The price is $844.78 for the group, up to six people, not a per-person fare. If six people share the cost, that works out to about $141 per person before lunch. With fewer people, the individual cost rises, so the value depends heavily on your group size.

What you’re paying for is a private, roughly 10-hour boat outing that visits several places in one day, with a driver-guide, snorkeling equipment, light refreshments and round-trip speedboat transport from Split or Trogir. You’re also buying the flexibility and privacy of having the boat to your group alone. Lunch, hotel transfers and any food or drinks beyond the included refreshments are extra.

I’d consider it good value for a group of friends or a family that wants a full day on the water and would otherwise need to arrange several separate outings. For a couple, or for anyone who mainly wants a short visit to the Blue Lagoon, the cost may be harder to justify. A shared trip or a shorter excursion could suit that budget better, though those options would not offer the same private setting.

Who will get the most from this day?

Private Blue Lagoon and 3 islands Tour from Trogir and Split - Who will get the most from this day?

This tour suits people who want a varied coastal day rather than one long beach stop. You’ll visit a historic town, a fishing village, two swimming areas and a shipwreck snorkeling spot, with lunch in Stomorska. The schedule makes room for different interests, but it also means you’ll be moving on after each stop.

Families can appreciate having a private boat and a friendly driver-guide, as well as the mix of swim time and breaks on shore. Children must be accompanied by an adult, and most people can participate. The tour information does not give age limits or specific accessibility details, so ask the operator about those points if they matter to your group.

You should be comfortable with a full day on a boat and keen to swim if you want to make the most of the route. This is not the best fit if you want a slow, unstructured day in one village, or if you need hotel pickup and drop-off included.

A few practical details before you book

The tour is offered in English, and you receive confirmation when you book. It requires good weather; if poor conditions lead to cancellation, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund. You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the experience starts. Cancellations or changes made later than that are not accepted for a refund.

Because the outing is long and includes multiple water stops, check the forecast and bring what you need for swimming, sun and a full day away from your hotel. The tour provides light refreshments and snorkeling gear, but not lunch or hotel transport. The published average booking lead time is 96 days, a useful planning signal if your dates are fixed, though it does not guarantee availability.

Should you book this tour?

Book it if your group wants a private, full-day look at the coast, values several chances to swim and snorkel, and likes the idea of adding Trogir, Maslinica and a tavern lunch to the Blue Lagoon. The strongest reasons to go are the varied route, the private boat and the mix of clear-water swimming with time ashore.

Think twice if you’re traveling with only one or two people and cost is a concern, or if you want a quiet day in one place. At full capacity, the group price is easier to share; with fewer people, you’ll need to decide if privacy and the wide-ranging itinerary are worth the higher per-person cost.
