Day 1 : Arrival Trogir Port – Split Port

Location: Split

Accommodation Name: On board

Meals Included: Lunch, Dinner

Our journey starts in Trogir for those who will board between 12:00 to 2pm (passengers that arrive later can embark on the boat in the port of Split). The captain and the crew will give you a warm welcome and during lunch snack we will take off to one of the bays on the island of Čiovo. After having enjoyed swimming and sunbathing, we will set sail for Split, our first port of call. Split is Croatia’s second largest city and the capital of Dalmatia. The 1700-year-old city was once the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian and is today a UNESCO-protected site. After a guided city tour, you will have the rest of the evening at your disposal to discover the old town on your own and to enjoy the bustling Mediterranean atmosphere on the famous promenade of Split.

Overnight on board.

Day 2 : Split – Island Hvar

Location: Hvar

Accommodation Name: On board

Today we will leave Split, heading to the island of Hvar known for its mild climate and fragrant lavender fields. On our way to Hvar, we will stop in a secluded bay for a swim. After having reached Hvar, we will anchor in the port of Hvar, the homonymous capital of the island. The port lies at the foot of an impressive fortress, which offers spectacular views of the offshore islands “Pakleni otoci”. Provided that the number of boats anchoring in the small port of Hvar allows us to do so, we will stay here overnight. Otherwise, we will approach Hvar already in the afternoon and you will have enough time to explore the islan’s capital before we head for a nearby bay to spend the night there.

Overnight on board. 

Day 3 : Island Hvar - Island Mljet

Location: Mljet

Accommodation Name: On board

Sailing along the south coast of the island of Korčula, we will stop at one of the numerous bays for a swim, before heading to our next port of call – Pomena or Polače, on the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared a National Park – two saltwater lakes (in the larger of the two lakes you will find a small island with a former monastery) are connected to the sea by a narrow channel. Do not miss the opportunity to visit the National Park (entrance not included). We recommend a swim in the saltwater lakes, where the temperature is always 2°C above the temperature of the sea.

Overnight on board.

Day 4 : Island Mljet - Dubrovnik

Location: Dubrovnik

Accommodation Name: On board

We leave the island of Mljet and continue our journey. After a swimming break at the Elafiti Islands, we will enter the port of Dubrovnik around 4:00 pm. Dubrovnik is also called the “Pearl of the Adriatic”, since in the Middle Ages the city counted among the most important economic and cultural centres of the Mediterranean area. Today, the Old City unfolds a unique open air museum with countless attractions. After arriving in Dubrovnik, we are invited to enjoy a guided tour through the historic town with its impressive walls. It takes only a few minutes by bus to get to the old town. The bus stop is located right next to the port, the bus leaves every 10 minutes (tickets are available from the kiosk or on the bus). After the guided city tour, you will have plenty of time to discover the gems of Dubrovnik on your own. Stroll through the famous “Stradun”, take a walk along the massive city walls and visit the numerous unique sights or take the cable car to the 415 m high mountain Srđ, from which you can enjoy a unique view of the old town and the sea.

Overnight on board. 

Day 5 : Dubrovnik – Island Korčula

Location: Korčula

Accommodation Name: On board

Continuing our cruise in a northwestward direction, we will first stop in a bay of the Elafiti Islands for swimming and sunbathing, before heading to the island of Korčula – our today’s port of call. Korčula boasts one of the most beautiful old towns in Dalmatia and because of its fortress-like appearance it is often called “Little Dubrovnik”. Overnight stay in the birthplace of the famous sailor and explorer Marco Polo.

Overnight on board. 

Day 6 : Island Korčula – Island Brač

Location: Island Brač

Accommodation Name: On board

Passing the mountainous Pelješac Peninsula, we head towards the island of Brač. On our way to Brač, we will stop in one of the beautiful secluded bays of this area for swimming and sunbathing. The island of Brač is not only well-known for its white limestone. Even world-famous buildings like the White House in Washington and the Reichstag building in Berlin are built with stone, which still today is exported to countries all over the world. Brač is also known for being one of the largest islands in the entire Adriatic Sea. Overnight stay in one of the lovely places in the northern part of the island – the perfect setting for tonight’s Captain’s Dinner.

Overnight on board.

We leave the island of Brač and after a swimming break in a bay on the island of Čiovo, we will bid farewell to the Dalmatian islands and return to the starting point of our journey, Trogir, with its beautiful old town, protected by the UNESCO and also called “the Museum City”. Enjoy the experience of a guided walking tour through the winding streets and discover impressive walls, towers, churches, frescoes and vaults.
