About this occasion

Engagements
on the Adriatic.

Genuinely distinct copy for this occasion — what the day feels like, who books it, why the boat changes the geometry of the celebration.

If you are reading this page you are almost certainly planning something private, something quiet, and something that has to land exactly right on a particular evening. Good. That is what we do for proposals.

A proposal boat in Dubrovnik runs almost always on the same arc: pickup an hour or two before sunset, a slow cruise past the Old Town walls and out into the bay, an anchor in a secluded cove, champagne on ice, and a deck cleared so that the moment is yours and only yours. The skipper drops the music when you signal, holds position so the photographer (if you brought one) gets the light right, and pours the second glass once you have said what you came to say.

Every detail is arranged in advance — the cove (we use three or four depending on the wind and the time of year), the timing against the actual sunset on your date, the music cue, the champagne brand if you have a preference, the rose petals on the deck if that is your taste or not at all if it is not. We never reuse a script; every proposal is built in a private conversation around what you actually want the moment to look like.

Who it is for & the experience

Designed around your group.

Two ways to read the day: who typically books it, and how the hours actually unfold. Both are starting points — everything bends around your specifics.

Who it is for

  • Couples planning a sunset proposal as the centrepiece of a Dubrovnik trip
  • Surprise proposals where the partner thinks they are just going on a sunset cruise
  • Multi-guest engagements with family on board for the celebration after
  • Vow renewals and anniversary proposals on a milestone date

“The whole day exceeded our expectations. The crew set everything up before we arrived, the boat was immaculate, and the route was exactly the kind of slow, generous day we had hoped for. We will be back.”

“From the first WhatsApp reply through to the drop-off at our hotel, everything felt personal. The crew knew the bays we would never have found on our own. Five stars from all of us.”

Engagements FAQ

Practical questions,
honest answers.

The questions we field most often before a booking. If yours is not here, the WhatsApp button is one tap away.

How private will it be? Will anyone else be on board?
Completely private. The boat is reserved exclusively for you and any guests you choose to bring. The crew — usually skipper alone for a couples proposal — stay at the helm during the moment itself, out of sight and earshot.
Can you arrange a photographer to capture the moment?
Yes — we work with two local photographers who specialise in proposal photography on the water. They board ahead of time, position discreetly and shoot the moment without the partner spotting them. Add it in your enquiry.
Can I send the music cue in advance?
Yes. Send us the track and the exact moment you want it cued — the skipper will hit play on your signal (we use a small hand gesture you will agree in advance).
What if she/he says no? (Or what if the weather is bad?)
We cannot help with the first. For the second, we will reschedule the trip at no charge or refund the deposit in full — just say the word. Weather windows for proposals are usually planned 3–5 days ahead and we will watch the forecast with you.
Can the proposal cruise turn into a longer celebration?
Yes. Many couples bring family on board after the moment, or upgrade to a full evening with onboard catering and a longer cruise. Tell us in your enquiry and we will build a two-act schedule.
Do you do same-sex and non-traditional proposals?
Absolutely — we have hosted many. Every detail is built around what you want the moment to look like, with no assumptions and no defaults.
