Museum and beach club - We really enjoyed this excursion, we just wished it was an hour longer to relax at the beach club! I can’t swim so my husband got to snorkel while I got to lay out and have a drink

a fabulous afternoon spent at the underwater museum! - We hired a private boat to revisit some gorgeous quaint coves from a trip earlier in the week and stumbled across here... The underwater museum was so much fun and our party of 4 older teenagers & 2 adults loved every minute of our 3.5hr stay! The huge statues & sunken fighter jet, the beautiful cabanas, super comfy floating mattresses, cool beach bar serving freshly cooked food & the best mojitos & wine! Really fun & friendly staff and all for just €15pp! An absolute bargain - we cannot wait to visit again next summer ❤️

If you only do one thing in Croatia it should be this - By far the best experience you can have in Croatia. We went on two consecutive days because one trip just wasn't enough. Everything is perfectly thought of, from the equipment to the beach bar. The statues and the plane are super cool and there really is a lot to explore. This elevates your snorkeling experience to the next level. Definitely a must see. The staff is super friendly and do their best to provide an exclusive experience.

I recommend it - It is a very attractive getaway. First things first: figure out that you have time to go to or from Trogir. The island is small and adorable, you can not miss a quiet tour of its streets. As for the excursion: it leaves very punctual, the boat you are on is correct and arrives quite quickly. The good thing is that when you arrive at the underwater museum you have a bar, sun loungers and also have fun for those who do not want to dive. As for the museum itself, it is less shocking than it looks in the photos and you have to have a lot of stamina and good condition to reach Christ. In any case, I recommend it.

Fun and refreshing getaway - Good little entertaining and refreshing activity. 3h round trip show in hand. 1 hour more to enjoy the beach would have been perfect

Fun trip - Nice to get away from it all. The trip was not 4 hours as described. 9am the boat left one at 11:30am we had to be back at the boat to sail back. The underwater museum clearly has a Christian theme. The big picture it the plane were our favorite. There were also many fish to see. The facilities on the beach were also good, nice sunbeds, plenty of space, a changing room, toilets and shower for a fee and you could order food.

Need to be a good swimmer - We went with 13 and 15 year old. Takes 30 mins on boat to get to beach. Have to go to bar to get goggles and snorkel, flippers are 5 euros extra. 1 euro to use toilet! Sea was choppy and it was quite a long swim to go to the furthest ones (like underwater Jesus), our kids not strong enough swimmers to swim all way there then swim around all the statues and swim back without a stop in choppy waters. We told the lady who was giving out goggles and she said there was a life jacket but by this time not really enough time to get back out in the water. So be aware with kids, they need to be strong swimmers or ask for a life jacket as they don’t offer it naturally. Beach was nice, you get there just after 9.30 and leave at 11.30.
