Itinerary

Food, walks, more food. We'll meet on our sailboat and get things started with a cheeky welcome cocktail.

Next up, you have the chance to take a guided walking tour of the beautiful city of Split.

Tonight we'll enjoy a welcome dinner – prepared by our onboard chefs. (D) Stay: Sail Boat (Split, Croatia)

Rise and shine, folks. Time to begin our preposterously picturesque journey to Stari Grad. Stop n swim. We'll pause for a swim at the most famous beach in Dalmatia: Zlatni Rat, a stunner of a beach whose shape is always changing thanks to the surrounding wind and waves. We'll take a quick look around Bol, a charming fishing village that's set to make your heart swell.

We'll stop for the night at Stari Grad. (B/L)

This morning, we're up and out. Vis, here we come! We'll stop off along the way with the option to check out a magnificent natural phenomenon, The Blue Cave. Cameras at the ready, squad. Deep dive into history. Once a strategic naval Yugoslav base, Vis was closed off to the public for years and is now a thriving representation of “the Mediterranean as it once was.” Don't miss the remains of the Roman Thermal Palace, the City Museum, or the beautiful Villae Rusticae on the waterfront. (B/L)

Today we're off to Korčula – also known as the birthplace of Marco Polo. Korčula walking, Dalmatian dining.

After we arrive, we'll head out for an inspiring walking tour of one of the best-preserved mediaeval cities in the Med (which is saying something.) Afterwards, you can opt for an excursion to a small nearby village where we'll tuck into a traditional Dalmatian dinner (i.e. food pertaining to the Dalmatia region of Croatia.) (B/L)

On we go. Korčula, you're a corker indeed. Salt lakes, monasteries, peace? Today you can opt to join the cruise manager for a tour of the famous salt lakes, and then take a boat ride to St. Mary Isle to check out ancient architecture that dates back to the 12th Century. You also have a choice to hire a bike, kayak or scooter and explore this majestic island in your own way. We're all friends here! (B/L)

Oyster time. But not until we've explored another beaut fishing village, followed by a once-fortified town famous for its mediaeval ramparts. In Mali Ston, we'll sample oysters – a delicacy that the town is famous for – and then head back to the boat. There's a sumptuous Captain's dinner on offer. Fed. Water. Cultured. What more could we want? (B/L)

We're off to Dubrovnik today. By boat, by boot, by cable car. Get the best views of one of the world's most beautifully preserved mediaeval cities when. We'll take a cruise by the old city walls, opt to take a guided tour of the majestic old town, then take the cable car to Srđ mountain for seriously scenic views of the city walls and the Elaphiti Islands. It's the most romantic way to end our final full day. (B/L)

DubrovnikOne final breakfast… on a vessel we've called home with a squad that feels like family. It's been a blast, and we're sure you'll go exploring together again soon. (B)
