Step on board Svetko, a truly iconic wooden boat that offers a sea experience you’ll remember. Your journey begins at the main pier in Portorož, where you will set sail on a scenic 4-hour sightseeing cruise along some of the most beautiful parts of the Slovenian coastline. As we cruise from Portorož to Izola, you will pass the historic town of Piran, the protected Strunjan Nature Reserve, and the striking beach of Bele Skale. On clear days, you may even catch a glimpse of the Alps in the distance - including Triglav, Slovenia’s highest mountain.
Upon arrival in Izola, the ship docks at the main pier, just a short walk from the city center, giving you two hours of free time to enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere, explore the old town, or swim at the local beach. After your break, return on board, where lunch is freshly served as the boat cruises back toward Portorož. Sit back, relax, and enjoy a complimentary drink on our spacious open sun deck.
Tours run upon prior arrangement (min. 25 passengers)
The meeting point is at the main pier in Portorož (Glavni pomol Portorož), located at Trg Prekomorskih brigad. Please arrive 20 minutes before departure.

We had a wonderful boat trip from Portorož to Izola and back, with a two-hour stopover. We didn’t experience any of the problems other reviewers had. The trip along the coast is very scenic, and thankfully, there’s no background music or announcements. The journey to Izola takes about an hour. You arrive back in Portorož at 2:00 p.m.
Wonderful experience, great communication and attentiveness of our captain. We got to know the coast and wonderful undiscovered beaches during the tour, we will definitely repeat it next year. Highly recommended for all tourists.
Wonderful boat trip with the Svetko! The departure and arrival times were exactly as stated on the flyer, and the staff was extremely friendly and polite. The boat was clean. The views of the Slovenian coast are truly breathtaking. I recommend it to anyone who wants a different sea trip.
Great evening boat trip! The staff is extremely friendly and smiling, they are constantly walking around and checking if everything is okay and if we need anything. The views of the Slovenian coast at sunset are truly beautiful. I recommend it!
We took a boat trip from Portorož to Izola and back. The atmosphere on the boat is relaxed, the crew is friendly, and the view of the coast is really beautiful. Not too “touristy”, but just right to disconnect a bit. I recommend it if you’re looking for a short, different trip by sea.
Great boat trip from Portoroz to Izola and back along the coast. Great views and friendly crew. Drinks included in the price. We asked the captain if we could take a few photos on the upper deck at the front, and this was granted without any problems. Definitely recommended.
Great boat trip! The staff is very friendly and drinks are included in the price. Thanks for a great day!

I can recommend a cruise with this company, the boat is nice and clean, the service is nice, and the bonus is the serving of cold drinks. Thank you for the experience.
