About Pula Boat Tours Adventures
Pula Boat Tours Adventures is a commercial excursion operator based at Riva bb in Pula Harbour. Its principal published routes use Boat Europa and focus on panoramic views of the Brijuni archipelago, with departures taking place close to Pula Arena and the city centre.
The current programme features two main shared excursions. The longer Brijuni day cruise lasts approximately five hours and combines sightseeing from the boat with an extended stop in Fažana. The shorter Dolphin Sunset Tour lasts approximately three hours and follows the Brijuni coastline while the crew searches for wild dolphins.
Both tours are offered with unlimited drinks, while lunch or dinner is available through the higher-priced ticket option. Live commentary is advertised in English, German, Italian and French. The operator describes itself as a family business with roots dating to 1967, although this history is presented by the company rather than an independent heritage source.
Visitors should understand that the published daytime itinerary is a panoramic cruise around the Brijuni islands rather than a standard landing inside Brijuni National Park. Its stop is in Fažana on the mainland. Wildlife sightings, sailing routes and departure times remain dependent on the selected date, sea conditions and animal behaviour.
Explore Pula Boat Tours Adventures
On the published daytime route, Boat Europa leaves Pula Harbour and cruises past the 14 islands of the Brijuni archipelago. Commentary introduces the coastline and visible landmarks while passengers view the protected island landscape from the sea.
The boat then stops in Fažana, where passengers receive approximately two and a half to three hours of free time. This part of the trip can be used for swimming, relaxing beside the water or exploring the seafront before the return journey to Pula.
The evening route offers a different experience. It remains at sea for approximately three hours, combining sunset views with a search for dolphins near the Brijuni coastline. Dolphins are wild animals, and the operator clearly states that sightings cannot be guaranteed.
Passengers can book either a drinks-only ticket or a ticket that also includes a fish, meat or vegetarian meal. The vessel is described as having indoor and outdoor seating areas, toilets and sheltered space, but passengers should still prepare for wind, sun and changing conditions at sea.

VisitPula Our Take
Pula Boat Tours Adventures may suit families, couples and independent visitors looking for a straightforward shared excursion from the city harbour. Its central meeting point makes it easy to combine a cruise with sightseeing around Pula Arena and the historic centre.
Choose the daytime cruise for a longer outing with swimming and free time in Fažana. Choose the sunset tour for a shorter evening experience and the possibility of seeing dolphins. Allow approximately five hours for the daytime itinerary or three hours for the sunset cruise.
Do not select the sunset trip solely for dolphin sightings, as these cannot be guaranteed. Visitors specifically seeking entry to a Brijuni National Park island should also check the itinerary carefully, because the published standard programme describes island views from the sea and a stop in Fažana rather than a Brijuni island landing.
