Sparus Boats
Join Sparus Boats and get ready to explore the stunning Dalmatian coast with Captain Dario! Your guide for the day is an expert in a number of techniques, including spearfishing, trolling, bottom fishing, and more. You'll be able to island-hop and visit some of the hottest fishing grounds that the Adriatic has to offer!
You'll be fishing from a 26' Marlin center console, equipped with the latest Garmin electronics, safety gear, and fishing tackle. On board, you'll also find a shower, fridge, and a cooler. The boat even comes with WiFi, a go-pro, and drone so you can capture each special moment while you fish. The boat accommodates up to 6 guests, and children ages 6 and older are welcome aboard.
Capt. Dario will take you to various fishing locations along Split's coast to target a wide range of species. You'll be able to troll for pelagics or bottom-fish for John Dory, Seabass, and Common Pandora. Other target species include Amberjack, Bonito, Tuna, Dentex, Seabream, and the list keeps on impressing!
The captain also has snorkeling and spearfishing equipment available if you'd like to take a dip and take a closer look beneath the surface. For spearfishing, he recommends ages 18 and older and that you have previous experience. Spears are included but if you prefer spearfishing with a wetsuit, be sure to rent one or bring your own.
You'll be provided top-quality Okuma and Shimano rods and reels as well. Your fishing license is included in the price and the captain will gladly clean and fillet your catch after the trip. There's also a hook-n-cook restaurant nearby where you can have your fish grilled the local way!
Snacks, soda, and beer are included as well so that you stay fully energized during the ride. Capt. Dario will make sure you're entertained and comfortable, just be sure to bring some sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses and the rest will be taken care of.

Jordan EdwardsRepeat angler5.0VerifiedFishy fun all morning
5 Hour Trip (AM) on June 3, 2026 • 3 adults • 1 childOur family of 3 had a private fishing trip with Ivan as our skipper and it was such a joy. He was prompt and so friendly. He took us out to two spots for great fishing, and was a wonderful companion and assistant. we all caught something, including large conger eels! the boat was immaculate and we were able to connect to the bluetooth for a fun yacht rock soundtrack to our great morning. When we’d had our fill of fishing, Ivan took us on a tour of the Split coastline and provided numerous recommendations for places to eat and beaches to visit during our trip. Would highly recommend this charter to anyone.
Chelsea Dowty5.0VerifiedHalf day trip with Marin
5 Hour Trip (AM) on July 11, 2023 • 2 adultsMarin was an excellent guide and we had an amazing time. He was extremely personable and took us to several spots. While fishing he kept us entertained by telling us about some Croatian history as well as interesting information about the species of fish and types of fishing. At the end of the trip he offered to take us to a quiet bay to swim. There were only 2 other boats in the bay and it was very calm beautiful water. We had a blast would absolutely recommend a trip with Sparus Boats and will be sure to schedule another trip when we return to Croatia.

Lovisa Canneryd5.0VerifiedAugust fishing trip
5 Hour Trip (AM) on August 7, 2026 • 4 adultsfantastic morning out at sea. caught several fish but got a little too hot the last hour so we went for a swim. A little too warm in the water for the fish to be active during the day said Captain Ivan. but a great day! Ivan gave tips about fishing and how to cook it best.
