50th Birthday Treat - Big Fish Adventure

Big game fishing / Bluefin tuna3 adults

Wow, what a trip 😀😀. From the moment we set foot on board we knew we were in good hands. What a great guy Ante is, a joy to be around who made the day fun, educational whilst also catering for all our needs, we couldn’t have asked for more. The trip was a gift to celebrate my 50th birthday and what a birthday treat it was. My wife, son (17) and myself thoroughly enjoyed the day and managed to land 4No huge John Doreys, we also managed to hook the dream tuna but unfortunately did not land it. I would higly recommend this trip, not only for the fishing but to spend the day with Ante who made it all worthwhile. Thanks Ante for making memories, we will back when next visiting the area hopefully to the land the ine that hit away Stay safe and as they say in the fishing world, tight lines

    Excellent Day at Sea

    Full day Fishing & Blue Cave2 adults

    Captain Ante is the best! We had an outstanding experience on this fishing charter and would highly recommend it. From the moment we stepped on board, the captain was incredibly friendly and made us feel welcome and comfortable. He took the time to understand exactly what we were hoping to get out of the trip and was very accommodating in letting us customize the charter to fit our preferences. What really stood out was his dedication to finding fish. He clearly knows the waters well and was constantly adjusting our plan to give us the best possible chance at success. You could tell he genuinely cared about making sure we had a great experience, not just going through the motions. He also shared helpful insights throughout the trip, including Recommended which islands we visited and recommended spots for lunch on our scheduled break. Captain Ante delivered a guided, personalized experience. Overall, a fantastic outing with a knowledgeable and passionate captain. Next time we are in the Adriatic we’ll definitely be booking again.

    Celebration Trip

    Full day Fishing & Blue Cave4 adults2 children

    We had the absolute best experience with Ante! The trip included myself, my husband, and our two kids (10 and 13). It was our last day in Croatia and we were celebrating my son’s 13th birthday. It ended up being the best day of our 10 days in Croatia. Ante knew all the best spots and did a great job of switching things up to make sure we had the best chance of success. The highlight-catching two bluefin tuna! He was great with our kids and everyone had plenty of action. We stopped for a swim while he grilled up some of our catch and made us a delicious lunch. Don’t hesitate to book a trip with Ante. He’s the best! Sheli

    This guy is the best.

    3 Hour–Sunset Squid & Light Fishing2 adults

    This is one of the most memorable excursions from our honeymoon. Our guide, Ante, was knowledgeable, hospitable, and a great guy. It was obvious from the get-go he took care of his boat. This was a much more relaxed setting than I was anticipating. It didn't matter if you had never fished for anything before. We were lucky and caught a squid on the first cast. From there, we had great tunes, conversations, and wine. We ended up taking some squid with us and cooking them in our air BnB. The "live well" is a work of engineering and art. This is exactly what you are looking for.
