About Us
Welcome aboard!
We are St. Damian Boat Tours, a small, family-owned company born out of a deep love for the sea, boat building, our beautiful Dalmatian coast and father-son tradition.
That why our story begins not with tourism, but with tradition passed down one generation after another, from father to son and/or daughter.
For generations, vast majority of our family members are all lifelong sea lovers. As sea enthusiast, our family has worked as small shipbuilders, ship mechanics, and everything related to the sea. In 2014 my sister, brother and I started making our first boat, the St. Damian!
THE NEXT GENERATION
My name is Dinko and this is our story.
In 2014, the next generation, my sister, brother and I have saved enough money to make a boat. And not just any kind of boat, we wanted a catamaran type. And if youre asking why, of course, the answer is always the same; teenage rebellion. As the next generation, we wanted to be different. To showcase our skills with a modern boat.
