Incredible unforgettable experience! - I had transfers from hotel to the port, then directed straight to the boat. The return process was just as smooth. The sailing experience was wonderful (I recommend to take a jumper and maybe another layer. Because even though it was sunny it gets a lot cooler when speedboating, especially after a swim. Otherwise weather was perfect the scene and waters were mesmerising, clean, clear, a mix of emeralds, magical blues, tones of somehow warm yet cool blues, even a sepia tones overlaying the blues. In the most charming ways. Makarska and Jelsa are just charming full with character each their own character must see places. We first stopped off at hvar’s cave which captures blue lights inside the water depth is about 4m, you have to swim your way in so not anyone not confident at swimming but still a beautiful site to be at for anyone. The next was mala stiniva which is about similar depth but even more dazzling light emerald just stunning. Gor confident enough swimmers it’s perfect for adventure cliff jumping. Theres very comfortable stable feeling cliffs with varying levels for all abilities to jump from off of. The water is deep enough to take the jump yet shallow enough for a confident swimmer. Even if you don’t swim because you’re not confident or if it’s cold, you can enjoy the show of others who do dare to. The next The next was a beautiful spot on zecevo. This has a lot more shallow entry points into the water including a pier with a ladder at the end. It has a really cool outdoor bar that would look really cool I imagine e at night. Doesn’t have to be trashy party, skipper Gregg says it’s nice and relaxed vibes which sounds amazing. Again fabulous looking clear dazzling emerald and blue waters. Next stop was at jelsa. Not long enough to check out all the island but long enough given the day so far has been jam packed and this is a good length visit to soak in some of the charm whilst out sailing nearby. The final stop was a great ending at Zirje. Great opportunity to snorkel and see the fish and even feed them and watch how many turn up! Again even if you choose not to swim it’s a wonderful stunning place to absorb. Definitely an unmissable trip.
The skipper Gregg was polite, helpful and friendly. He offered free water multiple times, we had free use of the snorkelling gear and life vests. He gave us options of where we preferred to dock for better experience. He and his team were on time, informative and ushered us safely and well throughout. I felt safe, comfortable, encouraged to enjoy everything and I certainly did! The boat is fantastic. Great seats with ample storage space and the pouch on the back of a headrest for securely holding your phone was ace too! Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

Perfect ice cream - Amazing experience with stunning nature and swim stops. The boat, the crew and timing was just perfect. You don't get the chance to get bored. The ice cream in Jelsa was cherry on the top.
Great day with Promare. Would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique experience without spending too much money .

Amazing - The best excursion we have ever been on. It was so fun and our guide was amazing. He helped answer all of our questions and told us about all the local sports to visit in Makarska. The sea was crystal clear and we even saw dolphins.

Great experience - Generally all round excellent - only issue was the ladder for getting back on board the rib wasn’t ideal - too small and not enough grab handled. The skipper had his work cut out pulling some of us on board. The skipper - Greg I think - was excellent all day. Transfers were very good to and from our hotel

Breathtaking memorable and unforgettable - Grego our boat driver was truly amazing took us to the best possible spots. The day was a memory we will treasure for ever. The blue pools were spectacular. Cliff diving was a treat to see how high you could jump from and the fish when snorkelling was colourful. Thank you again Grego fir a memorable day

Highly recommended - Highly recommended excursion. The bathing stops are all on super nice coves that you can only reach by boat and you even had snorkeling equipment on board. The places were also not crowded at all. The city of Jelsa we liked for a short walk and coffee between the bathing stops. The skipper was also very nice. All in one we enjoyed it very much and would go back.

Cruise from bay to bay - The places that we visited were really special and we are glad, that we went on this tour to see them! The visited bays were quiet and we were the first boat that arrived. We enjoyed to swim in the clear water and it was also fun to visit an other village. Our guide Marco was excellent! He was a great Captain and shared about every spot that we visited some infos.

Great day exploring the islands - This was are 2nd trip with promare from Makarska. Great day exploring the coves of Hvar and Brac. Our skipper Greg was friendly and good fun. Would have preferred a little more time to Jelsa. Great to experience some cliff jumping and see some lovely calm swimming/ snorkelling spots. Great trip to explore the islands in such a short time.
