Croatia has been a hit destination and the biggest tourist surprise in the Mediterranean the past ten years. It was rated in the top 5 destinations to visit in the world by various international travel organizations.
Its natural and cultural heritage qualifies it undisputed as one of the world’s best cruising destinations. With rapidly improving infrastructure and a strong will to provide five-star services, Croatia may soon be unbeatable as a mega yacht destination.
Croatia has an extremely attractive and diverse coastal landscape. The country has as many as 1185 islands, islets, reefs and rocks. The Croatian coastline extends to the length of 5951 kilometres. The characteristics of the Dalmatian coast are ideal for cruising and sailing. The islands and mainland stretch from Rijeka to Dubrovnik. The Dalmatian islands and mainland are abound with bays, coves and ports – large and small – in which moorings or anchorages can be found. These are ideal places to navigate by sail, but also to cruise on a motor yacht or a sports fishing boat. No place is far away from another place, and if you want to you can spend the whole day sailing. If the weather turns bad or a strong wind picks up, there is always some place nearby to find shelter and enjoy the scenic views of the Dalmatian coast.
DUBROVNIK DAY 1-2.
Old town Dubrovnik is a short ride from Dubrovnik airport where you can meet your vessel. It is under UNESCO protection and one simply must not miss walking its walls while there. It is the best-preserved medieval city in Europe, and in the 16th century this former independent Republic had the third largest merchant fleet in the world. Simply put, it is a must see destination. In the evening, guests can relax at one of the many local terraces, which offer beautiful views of the sunset, and then enjoy a delicious meal in one of the town’s romantic restaurants
MLJET DAY 3
Visit Mljet Island and you will discover the natural beauty of Croatia. Magical Mljet would be anyone’s idea of an Adriatic island paradise. With most of the island covered by forests and the rest dotted by fields, vineyards and small villages, Mljet casts a spell that can be difficult to break. Mljet National Park was created in 1960 and occupies the western third of the island and surrounds two saltwater lakes, Malo Jezero and Veliko Jezero.
KORCULA DAY 4
The Island Of Korčula is one of the greenest islands in the Adriatic Sea. The island itself is rich in art and culture, as well as beautiful nature with numerous secluded beaches and bays and breathtaking views. The main town on the island is also named Korčula. Korčula Town is a typical medieval walled Dalmatian city, with its round defensive towers and cluster of red-roofed houses. It is well known for its MOREŠKA – a traditional sword dance and drama that was common throughout the Mediterranean in the 12th
HVAR & PAKLENI OTOCI DAY 5
The Pakleni island chain is approximately 10 kilometers long, formed of limestone, with a very indented coastline and a low forest of black and Aleppo pine. They provide numerous peaceful coves for diving, spear fishing, swimming, and water sports. Hvar town is often called Croatia’s St. Tropez. It’s a place to see and to be seen, with a beautiful fort on its hill top. You may choose to moor in the bay taking your tender to shore or try to find a berth on the busy “riva”.
Spend the day visiting the town, enjoying spa facilities, dine in great restaurants and an unforgettable night life.
