Kolocep Island
Just a super short travel from the Blue caves there are 3 additional green caves. The first cave is big and easy, just swim inside and warm up for the next ones! The second cave is more interesting as it is dark and smaller. The third cave is the most interesting. It is a long and narrow channel which you can go thought and exit on the other side and then come back swimming around. It is necessary to dive a couple of times to go through. At one point you can even dive off the course to your right and dive out in a small cave with shallow sand bottom and no roof.
45 minutes here
Sunj Beach
The most famous sandy beach in Dubrovnik, located on the island of Lopud. It has a big shallow area which makes is great for kids. There are a couple of bars and restaurants, sun beds and umbrellas, and paddle cars to rent. There are also golf carts which can take you to the other side of the island.

Fun day on the sea.
We had a great day with Christian our skipper. His suggestions for sights to visit were great and he was flexible to match them to our interests. His restaurant suggestion was great too. I highly recommend.

Once in a lifetime!
Amazing day, 6 hrs was enough for us. The skipper knew the right times for the right locations, meaning we stayed ahead of the crowds. They reserved a super restaurant on Lopud, which is one of the highlights of our holiday. They had great knowledge of the area, and were proud to be local to share there passion for the region.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your feedback. Customer experience is our top priority. Hope to see you again soon in Dubrovnik All the Best Adriawave team Dubrovnik

Excellent morning exploring the caves and islands.
Myself and 3 friends selected a four hour trip starting at 9am in Zaton. The whole morning was perfect. The schedule felt well timed with ample time to enjoy each stop. Our Skipper Bruno, was really great and helped make the day very enjoyable. I found the communication with the operator and the team to be very helpful and efficient. Our group only has positive feedback to give from our experience.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for taking your time and writing us a five star review. We are glad to hear that you had an enjoyable day on the boat with Bruno and that you have positive feedback. Thank you for recommending us and you are welcome to join us again! Best regards, AdriaWave Dubrovnik team

Blue caves, sunj beach, sudurad - Elaphiti Islands
Top class day trip that my family will never forget!! Kiko our skipper collected us on the boat at our hotel at 9am. This early start was a clever tip as we arrived at the blue caves well in advance of the traffic which meant we got to enjoy the experience without lots of crowds. As the day progressed and we visited some beautiful locations to swim and eat, Kiko was a complete gentleman, full of interesting facts about Croatia and its beautiful islands. He instilled great confidence in our nervous family members with his boat handling skills, vast knowledge of the sea and weather, and his genuine love for what he does.. Kiko is an incredible ambassador for Croatia. We fell a little bit more in love with Croatia after this wonderful day. Also, this was excellent value for money. Thanks a million Kiko. We will see you again.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for taking your time and writing us a five star review. We are glad to hear that you had a top class day on the boat with Kiko. We are proud to hear that he was an ambassador for Croatia and that you felt now more in love with our country. Thank you for recommending us and you are welcome to join us again! Best regards, AdriaWave Dubrovnik team

You will get quite wet if it’s a windy day! Pickup and boat captain were great. So nice to get picked up at our house. Lovely ride.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for taking your time and writing us a nice review. We are sorry to hear that the weather wasn't the best, but we are also happy to hear that overall you had a lovely ride with us. Thank you for recommending us and you are welcome to join us again!

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubrovnik.
How much does Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit cost?
+
Prices start at $299 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubrovnik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubrovnik is not rushed.
Is Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 103 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Dubrovnik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit?
+
Around 36 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubrovnik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubrovnik and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dubrovnik:Private group tour Elaphiti island with Blue cave visit start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubrovnik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubrovnik?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubrovnik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubrovnik: Game of Thrones Walking Tour, Panorama Zipline Experience in Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik: 7 Caves & Blue Cave Speedboat Tour (4h). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubrovnik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubrovnik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
