What we love: This small ship voyage is far from your typical cruise. You'll dock overnight in port and sail in the mornings, allowing you to spend evenings in Croatian towns.
Set sail on a boutique ship carrying just 38 passengers on a voyage that takes you through the beautiful waters of the Adriatic to visit some of Croatia's most beautiful locations, including Krka National Park and the sought-after island of Hvar.
You'll sail from Split on a round-trip cruise. Over seven days, you'll hop from place to place, visiting towns and coves, islands and cities. During scheduled swim stops, leap from the ship directly into gin-clear waters, away from the crowds and appreciate the beauty of Croatia in peace.
You'll visit some of the most beautiful spots in Croatia, including the waterfalls of Krka National Park and sail among the islands of the Kornati National Park - an archipelago of over 80 protected islands. The celebrity-favoured enclave of Hvar is another highlight of the itinerary, where there's time to explore before sailing on to Vis for wine tasting in a local bar.
Sightseeing tours of the ports and towns are included, and you'll head off on walking tours of Šibenik, Zadar, Vis, Hvar Town, and Split where you'll see the architectural highlights and get a feel for the culture of each place.
Each day, breakfast and lunch are included, and although there's a welcome dinner and captain's dinner to look forward to, evenings are otherwise spent in port, where you can choose where you want to dine and how you want to spend your evenings.
Various departure dates in May, July, August, September and October are available, please enquire for more information.
Please note the following are not included: Port tax + tourist tax of approximately 35 EUR per person (to be paid on board in cash), drinks, and entrance fees (including for the Blue Cave).
