After a lunch we stop in one of the bays on the island of Čiovo, where we will have our first chance to dip into the crystal-clear water of the Adriatic Sea. After having enjoyed swimming and sunbathing, we will set sail for UNESCO Split. Split is Croatia’s second largest city and the capital of Dalmatia. Walk through the medieval streets as the Romans did 18 centuries ago and enjoy the most impressive sites such as the palace of the great emperor Diocletian with his mausoleum – today’s cathedral, Peristyle, Golden gate, various statues, Venetian palaces and much more. Afterwards spend some free time exploring Riva – beautiful waterside promenade lined with restaurants, shops and cafes. Overnight in the port of Split.

Day 2 Sunday: UNESCO Split – Hvar Island

Today we will be sailing 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 capital of the island. The town of Hvar is the centre of the island’s tourism, one of the favourite destinations in Croatia and one of the most prominent and visited tourist centres in the whole Adriatic Sea. Hvar is the town with rich cultural and historical heritage such as: the fortress, the Cathedral of St. Stephan, the Franciscan monastery, town loggia, the Hektorovic Palace, the arsenal and the theatre.

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, on the island of Mljet. Part of the island was declared a National Park – two saltwater lakes are connected to the sea by a narrow channel. They originated approximately 10,000 years ago. Until the Christian era, they were freshwater lakes, but since then a narrow passage, Soline bay, has connected them to the sea. Overnight in Pomena.

Day 4 Tuesday: National Park Mljet – UNESCO Dubrovnik

We continue our journey south. After a swimming break at the Elafiti Islands, we will enter the port of Dubrovnik around 4:00 pm.

Dubrovnik is one of the most important historical and tourist centres which was also in 1979 included in UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Except for its cultural and historical sites, Dubrovnik is inexhaustible source of traditionally prepared food, excellent selections of vine and great choice of café and souvenir shops.

Day 5 Wednesday: UNESCO Dubrovnik – Korcula Island

Continuing our cruise, we will first stop in a bay of the Elafiti Islands for swimming and sunbathing, before heading to the island of Korčula. Explore the Old Town of Korčula, which is still surrounded by its 13th-century fortifications, built by the Venetians. 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.

Day 6 Thursday: Korcula Island – Brac Island

Passing the channel between the island of Korčula and the mountainous Pelješac Peninsula, we head towards the island of Brač.

The island landscape is dominated by a limestone relief, with numerous gullies, crevices, cavities, valleys and coves. 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, Pučišća, Postira or Supetar.

I just got back from this trip and absolutely loved it! I had comfortable and clean accommodations on the boat and good service. I loved that there was time to relax and enough time to go out and wander at the stops. Plenty of time for fun and then plenty of time to nap on the sundeck. Breakfast and lunch were more than adequate. One of my favorite trips!
