- jdavs840 contributionsGreat Tour, book this now!Paolo and Ivan were great skippers and tour guides. Our tour was shortened due to thunderstorms in the area in the morning. They discussed the options with us and came up with a great plan. Stopped at 3 islands and had lunch at one of them. Always attentive and friendly and safety was always their first concern. Great afternoon and would definitely do it againWritten 24 September 2024
- GMD02200 contributionsPaola and Ivan Rock!!!Paolo and Ivan were awesome hosts making our private half-day island tour so memorable! Paolo was a quick learner using YouTube to know how to captain our 45’ vessel. Just kidding - just an example of the humor and great time we had on the trip!Written 24 September 2024
- jenniferwQ7689VP0 contributionsBest crew and boat for exploring CroatiaWow what a first impression. Tino our skipper and David were at the dock with this beautiful boat welcoming us with class and excitement for our day together. Tino’s boss Dario had given us the bigger boat at no cost, and it was an incredible treat. Our two days on the boat were spent exploring beautiful coves, swimming, incredible service by our crew and the best recommendations for food that were the best meals we had in Croatia. We actually went back to the restaurant for another meal. Tino and David treated us incredibly well and were extremely considerate, also giving us privacy on the boat. We had so much fun with them and can’t wait to do it again and see our new friends from Croatia. If you are looking for the best of the best book with these guys and ask for Tino and David, you won’t regret it!Written 12 September 2024
- Mango19740 contributionsDay at seaWhat an amazing day! We had a great tour! Josko was an amazing host. He told us alot about Brac. He was skilled at driving and made our day so pleasant. He suggested a wonderful lunch spot with great food!Written 1 September 2024
- 168kieranr0 contributionsFantastic day out!Done a private tour, wanted to do the blue caves but Ante (our incredible Skipper) gave us some possible alternatives as the blue caves would be extremely busy. We decided to go with one of his recommendations and we had a great time swimming in multiple crystal clear quiet coves, a look round Hvar town, short ride to lunch at a restaurant right next to sea, ice cream in a quaint little fishing village. The trip including plenty of drinks, snacks, towels, snorkels and the communication before hand was very professional. Ante was great and was more than accomaditing to all of our needs. I can not recommend this trip or Ante enough.Written 26 August 2024

- ericwS8502UM0 contributionsExcellent and well prepared !!We had an easy going and excellent trip with the Skipper Toni and Martina with the boat Colnago 45. Toni and Martina knew the area very well and brought us to nice spots for swimming and even a nice restaurant with awesome food inside a small but beautiful town at sea. Every wish we had the took care of, which makes the life so much easier. We would always do it again with them and the nice boat from Sparusboats. The boat itself was very clean and well prepared for the trip. Thanks to Toni and Martina and to Tedi from Sparusboats. Keep it up like that 👍🏼Written 23 August 2024

We booked a half day of fishing/sight-seeing with Sparus Boats for my family of 4. From the time we booked, Dario was very helpful in answering questions and making suggestions for the days itinerary. The day before our scheduled trip, Dario called to inform us that the weather forecast looked windy and rough. He worked to fit us in the following day with his brother, Josip as our captain. Josip texted us to introduce himself and set up a time and place to meet.
Josip had the day planned but was open to our wishes. We started the day fishing, then swimming in a small cove, then sight-seeing on the way back to port. A perfect day.
Josip was a fantastic captain and host. The boat was very nice and clean. An all around great day. Thanks so much.

We went on a five hour fishing trip with Josip, everything was taken care off and the weather was good.
We went out to sea and Josip (captain) brought us to the first spot.
He explained us the techniques and then we went fishing!
It didn’t take long for us to find the fish and we started off catching some smaller ones. Then my dad hooked something that felt heavy.. like a dead weight.
We pulled it in and guess what, a 4 kilo octopuss.
We then went on to another location not far from where we were. The fish were there and we caught some nice common pandora’s
Then again my dad hooked something big, this time he could feel that it wasn’t a octupuss since it was fighting a bit. He reeled it in and it was a nice and big scorpion fish.
After a few smaller fish and some good chat on board we went back to shore and on the way back we saw a few baby dolphins, got a couple of pictures and than we went on to the shore again.
I really recommend Josip as a captain as he knows the waters very well.
He also helps you where you need and advises you if needed.
P.S.
Dario, take your brother on big game fishing as he clearly deserves it👊🏼

Absolutely incredible time with Marin on the water. Fishing was a blast and learned a lot about Croatian culture and fishing styles. Marin was extremely professional and personable. We spent quite a while fishing and caught a handful of fish. He then took us to swim in a quiet cove. We will be sure to book with them again when we return to Croatia.
