Once you arrive, you will be greeted with a few man-made attractions, but plenty of beautiful natural occurrences.

Since Božava is a small island settlement, there are no major contributors to pollution, which makes the waters around Božava full of underwater life, as well as extremely clean and inviting to swim in.

Use this opportunity to snorkel just outside the man-made breakwater in the bay and you will surely discover plenty of underwater specimens, as well as shells and clams, which make perfect souvenirs to remember your boat tour.
