Great way to enjoy the coastline! - We’d been to Spilt before, so we’d done the walking tour to see the sights… The “Pirate Ship” was perfect for a beautiful day. Relaxing with some wine out on the water was wonderful!

Awesome - Was a great boat trip, both Captain and Judita were friendly and helpful. Almost got me drunk. 🙂 Boat trip itself is gorgeous, even though it was a bit windy day, felt like we are on a pirate ship 😁 Definitely recommend

It was a simple boat... - It was a simple boat tour. There was very explanation as to what it was we were seeing. The boat stopped for 15 mins to allow swimming. I would choose a different excursion.

Overpriced pirate ship boat ride for kids - Straightforward boat ride round the cove and back within 1 hour 10 minutes. No beach stops, limited choice of drinks and limited info given on the sights.

Awful, help captive for an hour on a fire hazard boat trip. - Went on aa advertised 90 minute coastal tour from Split Harbour, on "Columbo's Pirate ship Santa Maria." Seriously underwhelming, marginally above awful. First, this is wooden boat, with Highly flammable cordage, sails, varnish and other materials, within second of leaving quayside, the skipper started smoking. Never mind the fire hazard, but he blew smoke all over us. Refused our request to return us to the dock, saying (?? True) " no english. Spoke to other crew member who did speak English, she just shrugged. Later saw her too smoking with the skipper, who smoked more time than not. Trip lasted 61 minutes. Offered (advertised as unlimited) drinks twice only, only two bits of information/commentary, crew person sat in crew cabin on phone most of trip. Cut short on one end of the route, didn't even try to go near the other end of the advertised route. Booking agent did refund us, but what was meant to be a leisurely and enjoyable 90 minutes seeing and hearing about Split from the sea,certainly it wasnt.
