We lucked out with sunny weather and got to do all of the itinerary. The boat is like a Zodiac where you straddle the center. It was great to see the view from all angles, but can be a bit uncomfortable after extended periods of time. 3 hours felt like enough time on the island with the national park, although you could spend an entire day there. Make sure to bring sunscreen, water shoes, a towel, a jacket, and walking shoes to either ride a bike or walk in the national park.

First time on a rib boat... - First time on a rib boat and wow it doesn’t hang around, so much fun!!!
Our guide, Marco, was so accommodating and really looked after us.
Mljet national park is a stunning place. We hired a e-bikes while we were there and I cannot recommend doing this enough. It allowed us to go around the whole of the big lake and I left feeling like we didn’t miss a thing.
I would totally recommend this experience. The only person I wouldn’t recommend this to is anyone with a bad back. When the boat bounces it can bounce hard and, whilst I loved the experience and found it extremely fun, you are on the boat for quite a while. So if you have a fragile back this may not be the most comfortable journey for you.

This was, by far, my... - This was, by far, my favorite day in Croatia. Our skipper, Ante, was capable and informative, distributed windbreakers and water to all on the boat who needed, felt very safe and secure in his hands. The Odysseus cave was amazing but the national park - Mljet - was incredible. Kayaking, hiking, biking (our choice) and swimming - 3 hours of fun! Blasts great music on the boat! I rarely like to do anything twice on a vacation but if I'm lucky enough to find myself in Croatia again I will seek out this trip.

Nice Day Touring the Islands - My wife and I did the Mljet and 3 Islands Tour at the end of May 2025 and a great day touring with our guides Suzie and George. It was a decently warm day, but chilly when the boat was moving, so it was great that Suzie and George had windbreakers for us. You definitely get wet on this boat ride, so I highly suggest taking them when they offer.
We began the day at Lopud Island’s Old Port – there’s a small café where you can get food, as well as bathrooms, which many people used to change into bathing suits, but I would recommend just wearing yours at the start. We used the time to walk around the nearby Saint Mary of Mercy Church, along the waterfront, and into the Lopud Botanical Garden.
From Lopud, we boated to the Odysseus Cave. At this point the boat stops so that you can jump off and swim into the cave. You need to go underwater to get in, but SeaBreeze does provide snorkeling gear. I would, however, HIGHLY recommend bringing water shoes (the rocks in the cave are sharp) and a waterproof phone case so that you can bring your phone into the cave and take photos. You should also bring a towel
After we left the Cave we went into Mljet National Park. At this point everyone is free to tour in their own way for a few hours. We rented bikes and rode around a decent section of the park, which is scenic and peaceful. The ride is mostly flat (other than going up stairs). You can also take a ferry to a small island with a church in the middle of the lake, but you won’t have time for both that and biking. You can, however, stop along the bike path and swim across to the island. It’s a very short swim. Once again, wear water shoes – the rocks on the edge will cut you.
The last stop we made was Šipan Island – the tour lists going to Kolocep Island, but our tour guides felt that given the weather that day, Šipan would be better. There’s a small bar and a pretty beach you can lounge on for a while. The tour, as a whole, lasted around 10 hours. Suzie and George were friendly and helpful tour guides.
A couple notes/recommendations. Water shoes and towels are a must. You may also want to bring some snacks (although they do provide sandwiches and water). You should also bring cash because you’ll need it on Mljet and at the bars/cafes. There are bathrooms in several places on the trip.
Finally, a note about the boat…the seats in the very back are “normal” boat seats, but the rest of the seats are in two rows of what I can only describe as being like sitting on a long pommel horse. While the seats in the back would be fine for anyone, I think it would be uncomfortable to be on the other seats if you had any physical health issues (back, hips, etc.) because you do spend a long time straddling the benches. I did find sitting “side-saddle” helpful to give myself a break. If you have physical issues, I’d suggest maybe contacting SeaBreeze ahead of time.
Overall, we had a nice day touring the islands and would recommend.
