Three islands, two swim stops, one blue lagoon

This is the classic Šibenik archipelago day. We leave from the riva, cruise out through the St. Anthony Channel (past the UNESCO fortress on the way), and head into the islands. First stop is Zlarin, the old coral island, where you can walk the harbour or grab a coffee. Then on to the Blue Lagoon at Tijat, sandy bottom, water you'd swear was lit from below, for the main swim stop. Paddleboards, underwater scooters, and snorkeling gear are on the boat.

From there we cross to Prvić, the closest of the islands to Šibenik and the one almost nobody plans for. You'll have time to walk between Šepurina and Luka, or sit at a konoba, or just keep swimming. Then back to Šibenik.

Total time on the water is around six hours. Most days we leave around 9:00 AM, exact available times shown when you check availability.

A note on the "Blue Lagoon" name

Yes, it's called the Blue Lagoon. So is a bay near Trogir, two hours away, that gets marketed harder. Both names are inventions. Locals call ours Tijašnica. The water is the same impossible blue. Ours just has fewer day-trip boats in it on a given Tuesday.

The route

  1. 1 Šibenik riva Boarding at the riva booth, or D-Resort pickup if that is where you are staying.
  2. 2 St. Anthony Channel and St. Nicholas Fortress Out past the 16th-century UNESCO fortress at the channel mouth.
  3. 3 Zlarin Croatia's car-free coral island. Walk the harbour, swim, or grab a coffee.
  4. 4 Blue Lagoon at Tijat The main swim stop. Sandy bottom, shallow water. Paddleboards, scooters and snorkel gear out.
  5. 5 Prvić Šepurina or Luka depending on the day. Walk between the villages, eat at a konoba, or keep swimming.
  6. 6 Optional lunch at Stara Makina A small konoba on Prvić, around €20-30 pp paid directly. Skip it if you prefer; we wait either way.
  7. 7 Return to Šibenik Back through the channel to the riva.

Stops and order shift with wind and sea. Your skipper runs the best version of the day, not a fixed clock.

Is this the right tour for you?

Best for

  • First-time visitors who want the full Šibenik archipelago in one day
  • Couples and small groups (2-6)
  • Travelers who'd rather swim and eat slowly than tick off ten stops

Probably not for

  • Travelers who came specifically for Kornati National Park (the Kornati tour is the right one)
  • Anyone looking for a one-hour activity (the Panoramic is the right choice)
  • People who get seasick easily in open water

Frequently asked questions

Where exactly is the Blue Lagoon?
On the south side of the island of Tijat, between Zlarin and Prvić. Locally it's called Tijašnica. It's a different bay from the more famous "Blue Lagoon" near Trogir/Split, but the water is the same colour and ours is quieter.
Is this the same Blue Lagoon as the one near Split?
No. That's near Drvenik Veli, two hours south by car. Both are called Blue Lagoon for marketing reasons; the Split one isn't bluer, it's just better-known.
Is lunch included?
No. There's an optional lunch stop at Stara Makina, a small konoba on Prvić, where you pay directly, usually €20-30 per person. You can also skip it and eat later in Šibenik.
What should I bring?
Swimsuit, towel (we don't supply them), sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, a light layer for the ride back if it's windy, cash or card for lunch.
Is the D-Resort pickup really free?
Yes. If you're staying at D-Resort, message us with your arrival time and we'll come to the lobby.
Are towels included?
No, bring your own.
What happens in bad weather?
If the sea isn't safe, we don't sail. You can reschedule to any other day with availability, or get a full refund.
