Sail away and relax on the boat day trip from Porec

Loved this trip! Sailed for around an hour until we reached the charming town of Rovinj which is definitely worth a visit. The crew on the boat were extremely friendly, we were all given a free shot of grappa which is pretty rough but as it was a group experience we all loved hating it together. When we returned to the boat after an hour and a half on Rovinj lunch was served to us, mackerel or sausage and chicken with bread and sauerkraut, wine, juice and water. The food wasn’t fantastic (I’d go with the fish) but it wasn’t terrible either and everyone on the boat enjoyed hand feeding seagulls with any leftovers. Second stop was Vrsar which wasn’t as nice as Rovinj but gave the opportunity to swim, although the beach was pretty packed. On the way back to port we were given more grappa and treated to one of the crew playing the accordion. This trip offers real value for money!

The boat carries 200 people, and you are packed on. You ride to Rovinj, disembark and have 2 hours to look around. The meal is a plate of cabbage,plain bread and either a hot dog, fish, or chicken, and Fanta or wine. Throughout the ride hiubare pushed to purchase drinks. You then go to the Lim Fjord. There is NO information at all on this “tour”. You then pull in to Vrsar where you can swim on a beach. On that beach you must pay to rent a chair, or sit in the rocky beach. You then get back by 5.

This was the full day boat excursion from Porec, calling at Rovinj, where we had 2 hours free time to wander around, Lim Fjord, where we didn't stop, and finally Vrsar, where we had approx 1 1/2 hours to explore and have a cooling swim in the sea. The day got off to a good start, when the crew offered everyone a free shot of slivovice. Cheers! Then it was time to settle back and enjoy the ride. There was a bar service available throughout the trip, lunch was included and this was served on board after we departed Rovinj. There was a choice of fish (mackerel) or meat (chicken and German style sausage) both served with bread and sauerkraut, and also included drinks (water, orange squash and white wine) Lunch was the only reason I have not given 5 out of 5, the chicken was very salty and the wine was awful! In between stops, one of the crew entertained us with his accordion, and near the end of the trip, we were offered another slivovice. To summarise, a great day out, apart from the lunch!

Sehr nette Crew und ein toller Tag. Stadt Rovinij ist sehr schön. Der Halt bei dem Badestrand in Vsar war etwas enttäuschend da wäre vielleicht ein schöner Strand auf einer Insel schön gewesen aber alles in einem war es sehr schön!
