The story behind Junior Excursions
Once upon a time, in the early 20th century, there was a majestic wooden sailing ship named Junior, built in 1903. It was a time when the seafaring heritage of the Adriatic region was flourishing, and Junior was a true masterpiece of craftsmanship, embodying the skills and traditions of the shipbuilders of that era.
As the years went by, Junior became a symbol of the seafaring culture of the Adriatic. People from all over the world were drawn to it, eager to experience the unique and unforgettable way to explore the sea. Junior offered a range of cruises, from day trips to scenic routes past some of the most beautiful islands in the area, including Drvenik Veli (Blue Lagoon) and Šolta (Maslinica) and Sv. Fumija. Guests were mesmerized by the crystal clear waters and the stunning views of the islands, each with its own charm and character.
But it was the night cruise that truly captured the essence of Junior's historical significance. As the sun began to set, Junior transformed into an enchanting vessel, perfect for a night cruise under the moonlit sky. The sound of the waves gently lapping against the boat provided the perfect ambiance for an evening of relaxation.
During the night cruise, guests were transported back in time to a different era, where the sea was the main route for trade and communication. The ship's crew, dressed in traditional sailor's attire, regaled guests with tales of seafaring adventures and the history of the region.
As Junior glided along the coast, the guests were treated to stunning views of the moonlight Adriatic Sea. The first stop was at the beautiful Marjan viewpoint, where the sun slowly set over the horizon, casting a warm glow across the sea. It was a moment of pure magic that left everyone in awe.
And that was just the beginning. The Sunset menu was a special selection of dishes crafted to satisfy even the most discerning of palates. Guests enjoyed the delicious feast, savoring every bite, while Junior continued its voyage.
As the night wore on, the guests were filled with a sense of wonder and enchantment. The stars shone bright in the sky, the sea was calm, and the air was filled with a sense of serenity. It was a night that captured the spirit of the seafaring culture of the Adriatic, an experience that would be cherished forever.
And so, Junior continued to sail the waters of the Adriatic, a symbol of the rich history and traditions of the region, offering guests the opportunity to create cherished memories that would last a lifetime.

Customer Reviews
The Junior boat and crew were fabulous. Great efforts were made to ensure our safety and comfort and we had a blast!
Highly recommend!
We (couple) had a fantastic day out with the Junior crew sailing from Split to three beautiful swimming/snorkelling spots - firstly Maslinica on Solta island where we had over 1 hour, secondly the Blue Lagoon where we had about 1.5 hours and thirdly Sveta Fumija where we had over 1 hour. We were in awe at the clear turquoise water at each spot and we had plenty of time to swim and snorkel jumping right off the boat. Food and unlimited drinks were included: breakfast (coffee, donuts and pastries), lunch (we had tuna steak with potatoes, green beans and bread), watermelon and ice cream. The crew were so friendly and helpful and even dove into the water to retrieve my partner's glasses from the bottom of the lagoon which he was grateful for! The tour was well organised and on time. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful day. The boat was very comfortable and the itinerary really well planned. We had enough time to swim in amazing blue waters. The food did not stop coming all the time (breakfast, lunch, snacks...) so the drinks (coffee, juice, beers, wines...). Good food quality and drinks too. No regrets. This was the best trip ever. Thank you to this amazing crew. What an experience!
Dream day
Great day cruise to 3 islands near Split. The skippers are super friendly and very attentive. The 1900 sailboat is magnificent and sails peacefully in the turquoise waters of the Adriatic Sea. A breakfast was served to us when we got on the boat. After 2 hours of navigation, we discovered the first island where a superb little Croatian village is nestled, for an hour with possible swimming. Then we leave for the blue lagoon. Jumping off the boat, diving mask and snorkel provided, and also buoys available for those who wish. Then, a meal was served to us (grilled tuna steak or chicken with potatoes and green beans. Drinks (fruit juice, beer, white and red wines, water) are unlimited all day long. Finally, one hour stop on the third island with swimming possible. An ice cream was served to us during the return to Split as well as watermelon. Everything was perfectly organized, very good value for money (99 euros per day, with all meals included and unlimited drinks). I recommend
Excellent
The Junior team was wonderful with our group, we had a problem with changing boats and they were so kind and resolved everything like I had never seen anything like it before. Congratulations on your excellent professionalism
Iskrene preporuke svima koji traže lijepo i ugodno krstarenje po našem prelijepom Jadranu. Od prvog kontakta sa Brunom,susreta sa ekipom na brodu-kapetana i svih onih koji su se brinuli za nas imam samo riječi pohvale. Cijeli dan smo uživali na prelijepom brodu,dobroj muzici,dobroj hrani i piću koje je bilo za nas odrasle,ali također i za curicu od 6 godina-kiflama,sladoledu,lubenici... Atmosfera na brodu odlična,a destinacije na kojim smo se kupali prekrasne... Ivana,Ljubuški (BIH)
