If you were looking for a charter which is fantastic for taking your kids out to learn how to fish, look no further. DRboats is a great, family-friendly charter on the beautiful coastline of Croatia, ready to cater to your needs. The reefs and wrecks surrounding the waters of Umag are teeming with great catch for you and your family.

The vessel is a 22' Galeb Araus, capable of holding 6 anglers at the same time. It's powered by a 20 HP Perkins engine, a capable unit to carry you across the blue. The boat is equipped with a toilet for added comfort while out on the water. A modern fishfinder and GPS systems are also available onboard, to help you find the hottest catch around.

Captain Davor has close to two decades of experience as a professional fisherman. He's also an avid diver and speaks 4 foreign languages (German, Italian, English and a little bit of Russian). His great passion is teaching children the joys of fishing and getting them hooked while they're young.

This charter goes out to the local reefs and wrecks and goes after the smaller Mackerel, Redfish or Conger Eels, perfect for younger kids to be able to reel in. The duration of the trips, as well as the locations fished, are oriented towards first-timers and family fishing trips, where the kids don't have their sea legs just yet. The techniques used on this trip are light tackle, bottom fishing and trolling, perfect for newcomers.

The charter provides all equipment required for fishing techniques on this trip. Snorkeling equipment is also made available. Drinks are complimentary, sodas and juices. After the trip the crew will clean and fillet your catch, so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor on the shore.

Great fishing trip!
Half Day Shared Trip AM on May 23, 2026 โ€ข 4 adults
Our family of 4 had a wonderful time fishing with Davor! He responded quickly to our booking request and provided easy to follow, detailed information including map links for parking and where to find him. He was friendly, informative and funny. We caught a lot of fish and had them prepared at a local restaurant next to the sea. We would definitely recommend Davor!

Captain Davor is a friendly, knowledgeable host who was personable, made good small talk and jokes but also gave sufficient downtime to just zone out and also space for his guests. His English was more than sufficient and conversations were varied and interesting. The experience itself was overall enjoyable and worthwhile. We took home enough fish for two meals for our small family of three despite not actively fishing throughout the entire duration of the experience.

Yes on the trip its about smaller fish. You won't get home with a big catch but we caught about 10 fish each. For kids that's great. Success instead of hours without catch. Thanks to the owner, friendly guy!

Great half day shared trip (AM)
Half Day Shared Trip AM on September 5, 2025 โ€ข 2 adults
The captain (Marco) was very nice, we had some great conversation and he explained a lot. Everyone on the boat caught fish. They were pretty small, but there was constant action and a variety of species. My girlfriend and I caught 32 fish in total. I would definitely recommend it if you're looking for a fun time on the water, or if you're a beginner or want to do something as a family.
