Blue Cave Dubrovnik Tour – FAQs

Can you swim inside the Blue Cave Dubrovnik?
Yes! On our Blue Cave tour, you can swim and snorkel inside the cave. We provide snorkeling equipment, life jackets, and floaters for your comfort.
How long does the Blue Cave tour last?
The tour lasts approximately 4 hours, including stops at the Blue Cave, Green Caves, and a visit to Lopud island.
What should I bring on the Blue Cave tour?
We recommend bringing a swimsuit, towel, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, and a change of clothes. Snorkeling gear and drinks are provided on board.
Is the tour suitable for children and older guests?
Yes, the tour is family-friendly. Our skippers assist guests entering and exiting the boat safely. Swimming near the Blue Cave is optional.
What happens if the weather is bad?
Safety is our priority. If weather conditions are unsafe, we offer to reschedule your tour or provide a full refund.
Can the boat enter the Blue Cave on this tour?
No. The entrance to the Blue Cave on Koločep Island is too small for any boat. We anchor nearby and guests swim in. Life jackets, masks, and floaters are provided.
Is this the same Blue Cave near Hvar and Vis Island?
No. The famous Blue Cave near Hvar and Vis Island is different — it is accessed by small official boats only, and swimming is not allowed there. Our tour visits the Blue Cave on Koločep Island, near Dubrovnik, where you can swim and snorkel freely inside the cave, which is often even more fun for active travelers.
How long is the swim to the cave entrance?
The swim is about 10–20 meters (65 feet). Our skipper positions the boat as close as possible, especially for families.
