What To Expect
Our adventure begins at 9:00 am, as we set sail towards the cave of the Balkans' most famous pirate, Haxhi Ali. The journey to the cave takes around 30-40 minutes and, upon our arrival, we are greeted by the promise of mystery and excitement. Inside, we spend about 40 minutes immersed in history and nature. The cave invites us to swim, explore and marvel at its extraordinary natural beauty
(It's not 3 other beaches, the name of the place is "3 little beaches") The splendid San Vasil beach is characterized by a pebble coastline where you can swim, snorkel and enjoy the crystal clear waters. You will spend your free time immersed in the beautiful wilderness surrounding the beach.

1.00You make an hour of boat tight like sardines to 15 people. To land in a magnificent cave with 6 boats filled to the brim with people. From there, we explain that we are not allowed to dive and we leave in five minutes. And off we go again for 30 minutes of navigation. We are parked on a beach with 500 people, private deckchairs, a beach club and a 5 meter limit for wading. We foolishly took the option "dive mask" 5€ per person for nothing. And besides, we have to hurry downstairs because they have to go get some more to do the same ride again. "We'll be back in two and a half hours." Worst excursion of my life! Big waste of money and time.
Beautiful sea trip

4.00Beautiful outing and friendly staff, nevertheless it is no longer possible to swim in the cave, so it is necessary to update the title of the outing. We are also numerous on the boats.

2.00The excursion was good but we dont do snorkelling and we contracted the excursion with snorkell. We only visit the cave and then, we go directly at the beach. We didn’t do any stop to do snkorelling so we felt lied. We are disapointed, Steven was good but the excursion isnt it was that we hope.
We enjoyed trip

5.00We had booked for the day, but due to a too wild sea it was moved to the evening. We were finally very happy that it was moved, because with the sunset the view was even better.😍 So we definitely recommend going earlier in the evening. The snorkeling is not really an added value, so I wouldn't book that again. For smaller children this can be quite a challenge if the sea is a bit rough, as the speedboat does go up and down a lot. If you like speed, ambiance and good visibility, definitely do!
How wonderful.
