Blue Lagoon (Zečevo) — crystal-clear sea from Makarska

Small Zečevo island near Brač offers some of the clearest sea on this part of the Adriatic. A popular stop suggestion when renting a speedboat.

Last updated: June 2026.

Blue Lagoon on Zečevo island (near Brač) is known for turquoise, crystal-clear water. It is often the second or third stop in the 3-island route suggestion and a popular stop on the 5-hour route suggestion — but you choose the route.

Your route: Zečevo is a suggestion for swimming and snorkelling, not a mandatory destination. You can include it in your plan, skip it or replace it with another cove. With a skipper you agree on the route together before departure.

What a visit looks like

Zečevo has no large tourist centre — the focus is on swimming, snorkelling with a mask and relaxing at anchor. The water is shallow and warm, suitable for children under adult supervision.

When and how long to stay

  • We recommend 1–2 hours for swimming and rest
  • Afternoons can be crowded — morning arrival is calmer
  • In strong wind anchoring can be uncomfortable — the skipper assesses conditions

Getting there from Makarska

Zečevo is only reachable by speedboat rental (with skipper +€100 or self-drive with licence). The group 3-hour scenic trip does not go to the islands.

On the full 3-island route suggestion after Zečevo many guests continue towards Vrboska on Hvar — known as Little Venice — and Pakomina before returning to Makarska. That is only one possible plan.

Costs

Jeanneau rental from €150 / 5 hours, BMA from €180 / 5 hours. Fuel on the full route around 60 litres; on the 5-hour route less. Deposit €50 is paid in advance and deducted from the rental price — not refunded separately.

Before departure: Bring sunscreen, water and sun protection — there is no shade on the boat at anchor.
