A floating home for freedivers, sea lovers and good humans.
Freediving and sailing the most stunning Croatian archipelagos since 2021.
Guided by presence, simplicity and connection.
By being kind, caring, and open in communication, we create our little universe built on trust and warmth. We laugh and cry, we hug and smile, and we share the dream together ❤️
We choose sails over engines and we source our food sustainably. Our family garden and local farmers provide fresh ingredients that nourish us and our planet. 🍅🥬🍓
We dedicate one afternoon to show the ocean how much we love it 💙 Best way we could think of is a simple and fun cleanup comp. Team with the most trash collected wins!






5 open water sessions
Max 3 divers per buoy

Freediving instructors on-board
On top of the two workshops delivered by our instructors, you will be getting coaching and feedback in the water that will help you get deeper. Smells like PB cakes to us! 🙂
Let the waves set the pace for your breath. Ana, our yoga teacher on board, will lead us through gentle breathing and relaxation practices.
In our wildest dreams, we still like to take some time off. You can chill in the hammock, lay on the beach or just dive down into your favorite book 🙂
There are several caves on our route including the famous Blue cave on Bisevo island. Get ready to make some really cool shots!
On the last day we will dive a wreck of an old fishing vessel that’s home to schools of colorful fish and other marine life.
Depth: 12 to 22 meters

Life on board follows a simple rhythm. We sail about three hours per day, wake up in a new bay each morning, dive a different spot, and move on with the wind toward the next anchorage, ending the day with a quiet sunset. Cabins are shared and same-sex, and only cabin berths are used, keeping the boat spacious and comfortable for everyone.
Our crew comprised of a professional captain, a talented cook, and a dedicated freediving instructor takes care of the details, from safety and navigation to nourishing meals and support in the water. For added peace of mind, we’re accompanied by a 5-meter RIB boat equipped with first aid and oxygen, ready to assist quickly whenever needed.


Our food mostly comes from our family garden and trusted local farmers, providing fresh, seasonal ingredients for all our cruises throughout the year.
Fresh, seasonal and nutritious food – grown with care and shared at sea.
Ana and her helpers prepare simple and nutritious meals on board, turning fresh ingredients into moments shared around the table.
Good food, good company, and the rhythm of life at sea.
Hi, we’re Ana & Ante, born and raised near the sea. As a boy, Ante fell in love with freediving and sailing for they both give him a sense of freedom and stillness at the same time. The moment of entering freefall feels similar to the moment when the engine goes off and the wind starts to do its magic.
Ana has always been connected with nature and the silence it offers, from hiking in the mountains to diving in the great blue. It is the search for serenity and peace that brought her to fall in love with freediving.
We love sharing and connecting with life-living people. We also love the concept of enoughism and believe that, once we satisfy our basic needs, those special life-sparking moments are something to live for.
We feel that success is to have enough… be it financially, in a relationship or in any other aspect of life.
Josip Kir Hromatko2024-02-28 The first time I heard about Ante and Ana's cruises, I was pretty sure I would enjoy it... and it turned out to be one of the best holidays I could ever imagine! The detailed preparation and logistics, perfect freediving and spearfishing spots, dynamic sailing and relaxing sunsets, great food and amazing company - these cruises have it all :) I would definitely recommend it to all sea lovers and I'm really looking forward to all the good times ahead! Piet Dinkela2024-02-28 11/10 would do it again <3 much love Went there at one of the first cruises they did and i was really an great experience, solid teamwork and a really lovely crew included. Juliette Lelchuk2024-02-22 I can't say enough good things about my experience on the cruise in 2023. Ante and Ana are just awesome human beings, and everyone on the crew in our departure was lovely. I am a beginner freediver, and everyone was super encouraging and helpful. Of course Croatia is gorgeous (especially by boat!), and we ate delicious food both onboard and a couple of times on land. This was in many ways a life-changing week for me. The camaraderie of our group was truly special, and I absolutely plan to be back in the future ❤️ Uwe Köhler2024-02-16 I took part twice in 2022 and 2023. The cruises are just the right combination of sailing and free diving for me. Ana and Ante are also very nice guide with lots of local knowledge and connections. That does make the cruises ever so much better. Everybody helping on board build a good community and allows to learn a lot. Freediving is the best combination of line dives and fun dives. Also, the food was excellent. bartek jeske2024-02-12 It's more like a family get-together than a cruise! Ante and Ana put their hearts into getting people together, planning, cooking, and making sure that everybody feels welcomed and comfortable. There is a great balance of freediving and in-land activities. For those who like to wake up before the sun, spearfishing is also an option...but don't panic if you prefer to sleep-in, Ante is a passionate spearo and there will be enough fresh and yummy fish for you. We also spent some time cleaning the bottom of the ocean, we removed tens of kilograms of rubbish, and it gave us a wonderful feeling of satisfaction and achievement. Highly recommended! Malte “M”2024-02-06 I had a great time. Already the second time. Ana and Ante were wonderful hosts. Always met very nice and kind people Delicious and healthy food. Highly recommended:-) Nazar Grabovsky2024-01-31 Been on this cruise 3 times and want more! Ante and Ana do amazing job getting people together, share the amazing experience of sailing, cooking and freediving in beautiful Croatian sea among islands and hidden spots which they know very well. After the trip I end up having not only beautiful pics and memories, but new friends across the world. Definitely recommend Laurel Lozzi2024-01-27 I had a great time with Freediver's Dream. It was a true freediving vacation, spending a week sailing and diving everyday. Our trip was both structured and flowing, with as much down time and social time as I wanted. Ante & Ana are great, very warm and hospitable as well as fun and deep people. Everyone on the boat was truly wonderful to be around. Hopefully I'll join in again! Grzegorz Lupina2024-01-24 A dream? I admit I had some doubts when booking a spot on a cruise organized by Ana and Ante in August 2023: a week on a boat with people I’ve never met before? what about my freediving skills? I booked it. And it turned out to be one of the best adventures I’ve ever had. Ana and Ante have been organizing this kind of cruises for some years now. They share their stories, passion, knowledge, and even veggies from their garden with you; they show you secret spots, guide you to your PB, make an extra mile to create a unique memory for the crew (awesome!! - you cannot buy it, but it’s all included in their definition of sharing). I felt safe, connected, and alive. And left inspired. So yes, pretty much close to a dream for me 🙂 Theresa2024-01-21 "Freedivers Dream Cruise" is a real dream for people who like sailing, freediving, Croatia, good food and nice people! It was my first time ever sailing and also the start into freediving and it couldn't be any better;) Huge Hvala to Ana and Ante for organising this 🩵🐠🪼
How does our typical day look like?
Please note that some days may unfold a little differently, guided by the weather and sea conditions.
And how about the food?
Before the departure, we take care of groceries for the week so the first day on board feels easy and unhurried. Each day, Ana prepares two nourishing vegetarian meals with your help. All crew members take turns in meal prep, cutting veggies and cleaning after meals.
Please note that our cruises aren’s strictly vegetarian, as some of us may go spearfishing. If the sea provides, the catch will be prepared and shared on board.
We are happy to see you here! The dream is just a few steps away!
Just one more thing, to keep everyone safe it’s required that you’ve completed a basic freediving course that covers safety and rescue techniques. If you haven’t done one yet, feel free to reach out. We’re happy to help you find a nearby freediving school, or you can join our pre-cruise freediving course that we organize a few days before the trip.
Drop us a line below and let’s see how the dream unfolds…
Freediver’s Dream is a platform that connects and inspires freediving friends to live the dream.
