FAQ

About the Blue Lagoon

What is the Blue Lagoon near Split

The Blue Lagoon is a shallow bay protected by three small islets between Drvenik Veli and Krknjaši.

The sea floor is white sand, which turns the water a clear turquoise on sunny days. It is one of the closest swim spots to Split and Trogir, which makes it the ideal half day escape if you do not want to commit to a full day at sea.

Why book from Trogir?

Why visit the Blue Lagoon

Calm and family friendly

Sheltered water, no waves, a sandy bottom you can stand on. The most popular tour for travellers with
small children.

Best snorkelling near Split

Visibility is regularly over fifteen metres. Schools of fish around the rocks, and on lucky days a quick glimpse of
an octopus.

Half day flexibility

Five hours total, so you keep most of the day for the old town, lunch and the afternoon ferry to your
apartment.

Getting there

How to get to the Blue Lagoon from Split or Trogir

The Blue Lagoon is roughly thirty minutes by speedboat from Split and twenty minutes from Trogir. Public ferries do not call at the lagoon, so a boat tour is the only way to reach it. Our tours include the bay entry, snorkelling equipment and water on board, and we plan the timing to arrive before the larger group boats. Most departures combine the lagoon with a stop on Šolta and Čiovo, so you experience three different islands in one half day.

About the Blue Cave

The lagoon is open between April and November.

June and September are the sweet spot for swimming weather and lighter crowds.

In July and August it is best to depart in the morning to enjoy the bay before the larger group boats arrive around noon.

 Verified What an experience we had and memories made that will keep forever. If you’re looking to book a speed boat trip, please book with Siniša he’s so nice, helpful and it’s his own independent company rather than a big tour firm. He won’t disappoint you. The only thing that could have been better is the weather but that’s unavoidable and not his control :) End of the season when we went and probably his last trip for the season.

 Verified This is a great tour. The guys on the boat are friendly, they take you to beautiful locations on a safe, clean boat, and they give you tips to enjoy each stop. This is great value to take a speedboat to all of these places. I would go again if I visit the area.

 Verified Mes attentes était au plus haut car j'ai fait la même excursion avec riatours l'an dernier. Formidable! Le tours était composé de façon à éviter les hordes, et il y avait de petits plus... eau fraîche et café à bord, et équipement de snorkeling proposé pour qui le voulait. N'hétez pas à regarder sous l'eau... il y a toujours beaucoup à voir...

 Verified Нещодавно ми здійснили неймовірну подорож на човні по трьох островах Хорватії, і це був справжній відпочинок мрії! Перша зупинка – Блакитна лагуна, де ми стрибали з човна у прозору воду. Враження просто неймовірні! Наступним пунктом було чарівне село Масленіца, де ми насолодилися смачним обідом у місцевому ресторані, смак якого запам’ятається надовго. Завершили подорож на острові з тихим пляжем, де можна було повністю розслабитися. Капітан і його помічник були справжніми професіоналами, завжди дбали про комфорт і безпеку. На борту були доступні холодна вода та гаряча кава, що зробило подорож ще приємнішою. Ця пригода залишила незабутні враження, і я щиро рекомендую її всім!

 Verified We had an incredible experience with Sinisa. As a local, he was able to share fabulous personal stories and explain the history of the areas we explored. His boat was comfortable, and the small group experience was just we hoped for. He took us to several gorgeous locations for the best snorkeling we did during our 2 weeks in Croatia. We also met wonderful people. Just fabulous.
