Company Description

We are offering half day boat-trips around Medulin and Kamenjak, Istria.

Our story started with a small boat for 12 passengers in 2003. Through the years, the company grew bigger and nowadays, we own 3 ships. We give our guests the possibility to discover one of the most beautiful places in Medulin surroundings.

Our principle is simple : passengers can relax, discover the Adriatic sea and enjoy a fresh cooked meal on our boats.
We are caring that our clients spend an unforgettable time with us, so they return full of nice memories and experiences.
Customers feedback is very important to us. Our main ambition is to make our dear guests happy and satisfied.

For several years in a row we are awarded with a certificate of excellence by TripAdvisor.

Job Description

Our team on board consists of an experienced crew which is with us many years. There is a cook present on every boat and he prepares meals for our customers.

Let's not forget the animation team, whose main role is to entertain and serve our clients during the trip.

This is how it starts.

You will welcome the clients before the trip starts, and make them feel comfortable.
After the boat leaves the port, you will kindly offer them a welcome drink and start asking each client what they would like to eat later on (they can choose between fish, meat or vegetarian).

After 50 minutes of sight-seeing we will reach the most southern point of Istria: at "Cape Kamenjak" where underwater cave can be found. There will be a stop for around 30 minutes.
Your role here is really important, who wants will jump into the water with you and you will show them the entrance to the cave aqmd how to enter,
take care about their security and make sure that every tourist goes back on board.

After this break the ride continues around "Porer": an austro-hungarian lighthouse.

During this panoramic tour, it is your turn to entertain the costumers: you will explain them a short history about the lighthouse (construction date, its function, etc.).

It doesn’t have to sound like a high-school performance, feel free to tell jokes, to laugh with them, stay easy!

The next stop will be a brunch or lunch break. The boat stops in a calm bay where a Croatian authentic meal will be served on board. Here your job is simple: usually one animator stays behind the bar and prepares the drinks and the other serves the different meals. You will do this duty at each boat-trip (in the high-season twice a day).

Teamwork represents a stronghold for us and for this reason we always try to integrate the „new“ co-workers in our team as fast as possible. Our opinion is, that fun and good working atmosphere are the basis for a successful job.
