Zavratnica sunken boat
A voyage across five Adriatic pearls
One boat. One day. Five of Rab's most cinematic coastal moments.
Set sail from the Port of Rab aboard the spacious glass-bottom boat “Barba Šime” and experience Rab's most beloved full-day excursion — the Five Pearls Tour. As we leave the harbor, the boat glides over sparkling turquoise waters, giving you a unique view of the Adriatic seabed through the large glass panels below deck. This is the perfect introduction to the day's adventure — calm seas, fresh air, and stunning panoramic views of Rab's coastline.
Our first highlight is the mesmerizing Zavratnica Cove, one of Croatia's most picturesque natural inlets. Nestled between steep cliffs, this fjord-like bay hides a sunken German WWII shipwreck visible beneath crystal-clear waters. Here, you can stroll along the scenic path overlooking the wreck or enjoy a swim in the tranquil bay. During this stop, a delicious lunch is served on board — freshly grilled fish, tender meat, or a vegetarian option, accompanied by local flavors and a relaxed maritime atmosphere.
“A fjord-like inlet, dramatic cliffs, teal water, and a visible shipwreck just beneath the surface — Zavratnica is the Adriatic at its most cinematic.”
After lunch, we continue our voyage toward “Eggs” Bay — a secluded paradise known for its glassy blue water and smooth white pebbles. The bay's playful name and crystal shallows make it a favorite for families and snorkelers alike. You'll have plenty of time to swim, sunbathe, or simply float and take in the serenity of the Adriatic. Snorkeling equipment is available on board for rent if you want to explore beneath the surface and meet the local marine life up close.
After Krklant swim stop, we head to Wild Beach on the Island of Rab on another swim stop where you can enjoy wild terrain views and crystal-clear water.
The final leg of our journey takes us to Pudarica Beach, where golden light dances across the sea in the late afternoon. It's an ideal stop to unwind, take a final dip, or grab a refreshment from the nearby beach bar before we cruise back. On our return, enjoy a panoramic view of Rab's Old Town from the sea — its iconic four bell towers standing tall against the sky. As we dock back at the Port of Rab, you'll leave with lasting memories of crystal waters, breathtaking views, and a day spent exploring five of Rab's coastal pearls.

We went on two boat trips: dynamic Five pearls and more relaxed- Lošinj trip. Both were incredible, there was a good balance of boat time and swimming breaks. Swimming break locations were very beautiful and you can see that the captain knows the island(s) like the palm of his hand. The boat crew was excellent, food was great, overall it was 10/10. :)

We had a great day, crew was friendly spoke English, German and Italian. We took the five pearls excursion. Besides the last stop all of them were fantastic. Lunch was either fish (deliciously grilled) or chicken. Kids went on for free, only had to pay for lunch.
