Description
Explore Dubrovnik and stunning Dalmatian islands and coastline. Spend your mornings admiring the spectacular scenery, enjoying swimming in crystal clear Adriatic sea and your afternoons and evenings exploring old historical towns or having fun till morning hours.
Embarking in Dubrovnik we head to Mljet National Park, with the beautiful St Mary’s Monastery on an island in the lake on an island. You can visit the monastery or explore the paths of the park by foot or bike. Then we head to Korcula, birth place of the great explorer Marco Polo and a mini Dubrovnik in its own right. We continue to Split, Croatia’s second largest city where Roman Emperor Diocletian built himself a retirement palace, now under UNESCO protection, that still dominates life in central Split to this day. A warren of ruins, cafes, museums, hotels, restaurants, shops and houses. Split waterfront is a happening place and there’s a buzz along the beautiful wide promenade. A local guide meets us on arrival for a walk through the heart of the bustling old town and the market.
We spend the last few days cruising the islands: The jetset town of Hvar, the beautiful small fishing port of Bol, the extraordinary nearby beach of Zlatni Rat (see image at top of page), and we take an excursion to explore the Pelješac peninsula before returning to Dubrovnik.
These are very relaxed cruises, generally cruising for around 4 hours in the morning with a swim stop on the way. The afternoons are free to explore or you can join a guided walk of the towns and ports we moor in, and in the evening and in the evening you can try some of the many fantastic restaurants that abound here.
