Booking a Boat

We would say, the best way to really explore the area around the Villa is to rent a boat. Someone in your party will need to have a Powerboat Licence but this is easy to achieve by taking a 2 day course and you then have it for life so it’s a good investment.

A company such as Duck 2 Water in Southampton makes it all very easy and it costs about £250 for the course. https://www.duck-2-water.co.uk

Without doubt the best RIB rental for you is thorough our friend Ivica Kopic. He is very local (walking distance from our house), knows our mooring and has the two best boats for your needs and they come with full insurance and all the necessary licenses.
Ivica has two boats - A Zar Formenti 57 with Yamaha 150hp (which is what most of you will want/ need) and a slightly smaller boat 4.8m with Honda 40hp (probably only good for pootling and not enough to get you to some of the places I will be recommending)

CRO RENT

Based in Korcula Town, these guys have RIBS for rent which you can take for 1 day, 3 days or 7 days. They will bring the boat over from Korcula for you and moor the boat on our buoy which is just beneath the house.

Stella is our contact there and their website is not very user friendly so its worth ringing. Best to reserve early too as the boats to get rented out fast each season.

TAXI BOATS

We have several guys who operate a RIB taxi service. I would advise using them for evening visits over to Korcula or if you think you might be having a particularly boozy lunch somewhere!

Ivan Tel: +385 98 7570 43 - Ivan has a huge RIB that can take up to 12 pax. He would be your fastest way for example to get to Mljet for the day.

Mario Tel: +385 98 5129 23 - Mario can take up to 6 pax and good for short distance journeys.

SMALLER BOATS

Robert at Pension Gradina has little 5hp boats that you can take out for the day if you are happy pootling in the smaller bays around Loviste.
