4. From Korcula: Brac Island by Yacht and Golden cape beach

Bol is situated on the island’s southern side, at the foot of Vidova Gora (Vid Mountain) which is the highest peak on Brac island as well as the tallest point across all the Adriatic islands at 778 meters. The Bol area stretches for kilometers along the spectacular coastline and features many beautiful beaches, among which is the world famous beach Zlatni Rat (Golden Cape). This beach is a unique natural phenomenon whose sandy peninsula extends nearly half a kilometer into the clear blue sea like a small tongue. It “grows” with the depositing and sedimentation of small gravelly pebbles around the underwater reef, and the tip of the beach is constantly changing its shape, attempting to conform to the will of the waves and gentle sea currents. Today, it is a center for the island’s tourism and one of the most sought-after destinations in the Dalmatian Riviera. After swimming, snorkeling or stand-up paddle boarding on this stunning beach, enjoy a delicious Dalmatian lunch aboard our luxury yacht.

Loved this trip. Especially the first two Islands...Badija and and the old abandoned fishing village on Island starting with V? I walked the whole way around Badija. Had a lovely lunch here. The Franciscan Monastery is fascinating. Great service to stay as little or as long as you like on each of the Islands getting picked up when it suits you and dropped off at the next Island. I highly recommend this tour.

Boris was a fantastic guide! I recommend going on a kayak trip with him. He even finished the trip with homemade treats. The only thing I would say is that this trip could have been much shorter. We were too exhausted at the end (and I have 2 very fit teenagers ages 15 & 18). The trip ended up being over 5 hours. We thought only about 2.5 hours, so we were not mentally prepared for that long.

Wonderful experience and absolutely recommendable. Perfect for everyone who is into Kayakin, History and Culture. Boris and Ivka are very likable and thoughtful of the groups individual needs and interests. 6/5!

It is a must do!! Boris and his wife are the real deal. I had so much fun, it was so beautiful and I learned a lot!

One of the best experiences! Highly recommended, excellent guide - MUST DO on Korcula.
