A speedboat and turquoise water in one outing.

This tour pairs a UNESCO stop in Trogir with serious Blue Lagoon swim time, so you get city sights plus that jaw-drop sea color without planning two separate days. I love the small-group feel (max 12) and how the pace keeps you moving between highlights, not waiting around. One thing to keep in mind: sea conditions can be unpredictable, so the exact route may shift a bit.

You’ll also get practical perks that make the day easier—towels included, a free tour photo, and water for every person. The itinerary gives you two separate swim moments (Krknjaši Blue Lagoon first, then Labadusa Beach), plus mask and safety gear so you can jump in and make the most of the water. The possible drawback is simple: it’s not suitable for everyone (no kids under 5, no wheelchair users, and not for people over 130 kg / 287 lbs), and you’ll spend a lot of time outdoors in sun and salt air.

Key things to know before you go

• Small group (12 people max) means more relaxed boarding and easier pacing around stops
• Two water breaks: Krknjaši Blue Lagoon first, then Labadusa Beach for a second swim chance
• Towels + 0.5 l water per person keep you comfortable without extra shopping
• Free tour photo is a nice added souvenir when you just want to enjoy, not pose all day
• Trogir sightseeing time (about 1 hour) plus a specific lunch option at Tunaholic Fish Bar
• Route may vary due to sea travel conditions, so don’t plan tight connections afterward

A smooth Split-to-Trogir-to-Blue-Lagoon plan

If you want Croatia’s Dalmatian “wow” moments without turning your day into a logistics puzzle, this is a smart format. You start on the water with speedboat rides, then you get a real break on land in Trogir, and only then do you go back to the sea for the swim time.

What I like most is the way the day is built around your energy levels. You’re not just stuck in a boat for hours. You get breaks to walk, eat, and cool off in the water—so the tour feels like a sequence of moments, not one long slog.

And with a live guide in English and Italian, you’re not left guessing where to go in Trogir or what to do at the water stops.

Meeting at sv. Frane and getting settled fast

You meet in front of the church sv. Frane. The stated starting point is Trg dr. Franje Tuđmana, and the key practical detail is the church landmark—use that to orient yourself quickly when you arrive.

Because the group is limited to 12, boarding usually feels orderly. Still, show up a little early so you’re not doing a last-minute sprint in sandals and sun. This is the kind of tour where arriving on time keeps the whole schedule from wobbling.

You’ll be with the boat provider Bepo boat 04, and the tour is built around a speedboat rhythm. That means you’ll want to keep your essentials easy to reach (sunglasses, sunscreen, your swimwear plan).

Trogir time: UNESCO streets and a modern fish lunch

You get about 1 hour in Trogir, which is a good window for first-timers. Trogir is a compact UNESCO-protected town, and with an hour you can do the important wandering without needing a full walking day.

You’ll have time to do a self-guided walk, plus you can soak in the neighborhood feel at an easy pace. The point isn’t to rush through every corner—it’s to get your bearings and enjoy the old-town vibe before heading back to the water.

Food stop: Tunaholic Fish Bar

After your walk, the tour includes a stop at Tunaholic Fish Bar for a modern take on classic fish dishes. You’re not forced into one strict menu here—you can choose what you want in that “fish-forward” style and keep the meal aligned with your taste.

Trade-off: one hour passes quickly, especially if you stop for photos. If you’re a slow wanderer, plan to keep your route simple and save the deeper Trogir exploring for another day.

The speedboat legs: quick rides, real sea views

You’ll have multiple speedboat segments throughout the day. The time blocks are roughly 25 minutes, then another 25 minutes, then later 20 minutes and 30 minutes on the return side. That repeating rhythm matters because it keeps the day from feeling like one long boat ride.

Use the boat time for two things:

• Views: the Adriatic coastline changes fast from the water.
• Reset: you can sit back, cool down a little, and mentally shift from walking mode to swim mode.

A practical note: the tour specifically warns that sea travel can be unpredictable. So if you get slightly bouncy rides, that’s part of the deal with Adriatic speedboat travel. If you’re sensitive to motion, consider bringing any personal remedy you already trust.

Krknjaši Blue Lagoon: emerald water and an 80-minute water break

This is the headline moment: the stop at Krknjaši Blue Lagoon. The water time is about 80 minutes, which is long enough to actually enjoy it instead of just sprinting for a photo.

What makes this stop work is the combination of water activities and comfort. You get a safety briefing, plus snorkeling mask equipment and safety gear. That means you can focus on relaxing once you’re in the moment.

In addition to swimming and snorkeling, you’ll also have an aperitif and drinks like beer, cocktail, and coffee. It’s a nice setup for a laid-back group vibe—you can choose your level of participation without pressure.

Here’s a practical tip: go in waves. Swim first while you’re fresh, then come back for a drink and reapply sunscreen if needed. The lagoon time is long enough that you can do both, and you won’t feel rushed.

One thing to keep in mind: even with great water visibility, what you can see while snorkeling depends on the day’s conditions. Still, the value here is the overall experience—cool water, clear color, and the chance to play in it.

Čiovo and Labadusa Beach: another swim, plus lunch time

After the lagoon, you head toward Čiovo and then stop at Labadusa Beach for about 1 hour. This is your second swim chance, and it’s one of the best ways to hedge your bets on weather, sun, and energy.

Labadusa is described as a small beach full of activity, which usually means you won’t feel stranded. You’ll get aperitif, beer, cocktail, and coffee again, plus lunch is included here, and you can swim or snorkel during the beach window.

That lunch stop is the biggest practical win of the itinerary design. Instead of trying to find food on your own between swims, the tour times it so you can refuel while the day is still moving. Just make sure you eat something that won’t upset your stomach if you get back in the water right after.

The drawback is time: one hour at the beach sounds generous until you’re in sun mode. If you’re the type who wants to fully claim a spot—lounging, floating, reapplying sunscreen—go easy on the agenda so you don’t feel like you’re racing the clock.

Included perks that actually matter

This tour includes the essentials that make a speedboat day easier:

• Towels included (a big deal on a boat day where you may not want to haul your own)
• Speedboat rides between Split, Trogir, Krknjaši Blue Lagoon, and Labadusa
• Snorkeling mask and safety equipment
• Free tour photo
• Water free: 0.5 l per person

Those extras are about convenience, not just “nice-to-have.” Towels and water reduce friction, and the free photo helps if you want a keepsake without turning your swim time into a photo shoot.

Price and value: what $73 buys you in real terms

At $73 per person, this tour is positioned as a mid-range day out. The honest value check is what you’re paying for:

You’re not just buying access to Blue Lagoon water time. You’re paying for:

• multiple speedboat segments (which cost more than many people expect),
• a live guide in English and Italian,
• the Trogir sightseeing window,
• drinks during the lagoon and beach stops,
• lunch at Labadusa, and
• gear like snorkeling masks plus safety equipment.

If you tried to DIY this—speedboat charter plus transport plus a guided timing structure plus lunch—you’d likely spend more, and you’d do more work. The tour’s structure is the product: it strings together city + sea without forcing you into coordination headaches.

The only reason the price might feel high is if you don’t care about water activities or you can only enjoy one swim moment. If you’re comfortable with both lagoon and beach, the price starts to feel fair.

What to bring so the day feels easy

Bring the basics the tour lists, and treat them like a checklist rather than a suggestion:

• Passport or ID card
• Sunglasses and sun hat
• Swimwear and beachwear
• Sunscreen
• Comfortable clothes and a jacket (you’ll thank yourself if it gets breezy on the boat)
• Towel (even though towels are included, having your own is only useful if you like drying off your way)
• Cash

One extra practical thought: keep your phone and wallet secure. Speedboat days involve splashes and moving around, so if you rely on a single phone pocket with no zip, you’re setting yourself up for stress.

Who this tour fits best (and who should skip it)

This is a great fit if you want a compact day that mixes town sightseeing with clear-water swimming. The small group size makes it especially appealing if you don’t love crowds and you prefer a guided structure.

You’ll likely enjoy it most if you:

• want a speedboat experience without planning a charter,
• like snorkeling or at least being in the water,
• want a real Trogir visit with an easy schedule,
• prefer included meals and drinks over chasing plans.

It’s not suitable for:

• children under 5
• pregnant women
• people with mobility impairments or wheelchair users
• people over 287 lbs / 130 kg

So if accessibility is part of your decision, double-check your needs before booking.

Should you book Magnific Blue Lagoon speedboat with towels included?

I’d book it if you want the best of Dalmatia in one shot: Trogir on the clock, then long enough time in Krknjaši Blue Lagoon to actually enjoy the water, followed by a second beach stop at Labadusa with lunch.

Don’t book it if you hate speedboats, feel motion-sensitive, or you want a slow, unhurried day where you can linger in one place for hours. Also, if you’re only interested in the lagoon and not the rest, the value may feel uneven because the tour includes several moving parts.

If you’re deciding right now, here’s the quick test I use:

If you’d happily spend one day doing city wandering for an hour and then two separate swims, you’ll likely have a great time.
