“It was fun and a good length of time at the destinations. Our guide Luca did a great job. Preko wasn't able to be explored much in the time allotted but it was still okay. The other two stops seemed like a perfect length of time. Snorkeling and the island were both great.”

3.Island Luxury Speedboat Tour with Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 201 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $36 a head

Spend four hours on a speedboat from Zadar with a group of no more than 12. Walk up tiny Ošljak, snorkel by Otok Galevac, visit its monastery museum, and enjoy free time in Preko. Guides including David, Joseph, Lovre, Roko, and Rocco have led the trip, which includes snorkel gear and WiFi but adds a €10 docking fee.

“The tour was good, nice organised and the places we visited were absolutelly beautufull. Rocco the new skipper was super good, well done! However a few people found a bit misleading in the description when it says Alcoholic Beverages included. This need to be rectified, we only had one shoot of homemade liquore and we were expecting beers/wine. Other than that the experience was great!”

4.Adrenaline Adventure on Speedboat with 3 stops and Snorkeling

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 145 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $38 a head

Race from Zadar to three island stops on a small speedboat, swim in clear water at Pjescana Uvala, stroll quiet Ošljak, and explore Preko. Snorkel gear, bottled water, and cold drinks are included. Skippers such as Joseph, Lovre, Tony, and Mateo are praised for friendly service, though expect spray, a possible €10 fee, and no onboard toilet.

“Tour was as described. Just be prepared to get soaked. Due to wind and a full boat - we got continuously pummeled by spray as the boat cut through waves. It was basically a 20 minute shower out a back. Stops were pleasant and it was a nice way to spend four hours. Tony was a great captain. Our boat was a full 10 and it probably would be better if they capped it at 8. Just be prepared to get soaked and don’t bring anything that you can’t afford to get totally wet. Captain did provide snorkel mask and snorkel and they were of good quality.”
