About the Melisa

The fastest boat on the Makarska Riviera

Sail with us to two neighbouring islands — Hvar and Brač. Explore the ancient stone architecture of Hvar, swim at Croatia's most famous beach in Bol, and enjoy fresh grilled dishes prepared on board.

We chose a fast boat for a reason: it lets you spend more time on the beautiful islands and less time getting there. Departure is in the morning, return in the late afternoon — with music, cocktails and a happy hour on the way back.
