About Polaris Split Boat Tours
Polaris Split Boat Tours operates from Pier 7 on Split's historic Riva waterfront promenade, just steps from Diocletian's Palace. Their centrepiece is a legendary wooden vessel originally used during World War II in the Normandy invasion, now lovingly restored and repurposed as an island-cruising boat that takes passengers on unforgettable trips through the Croatian archipelago.
Their tour menu includes full-day island-hopping cruises visiting Brač, Šolta, and the Blue Lagoon near Trogir, sunset cruises along the Split coastline with drinks and music, two-island swimming tours with snorkelling stops in crystal-clear coves, and private charter options for groups. All shared tours include a skipper and crew, swimming stops at secluded bays, and time to explore island villages. Snorkelling equipment is available on board, and some tours include lunch or light refreshments.
What makes Polaris special is the boat itself — a vessel with genuine wartime history that's been carefully converted into a comfortable cruiser. It creates an atmosphere that modern fibreglass catamarans simply can't match. The family-run crew brings warmth and local knowledge to every trip, pointing out hidden swimming spots and sharing stories about the islands. Their prime Riva location means zero hassle getting to the departure point.
