Route in Croatia (Dubrovnik - Split)

The largest of the Elafiti Archipelago, Sipan is a charming retreat with a history dating back to the 11th century. Enamoured by the Dubrovnik aristocracy of old, the island is home to the remains of grand summer houses and impressive palaces. Sipanska Luka, on the northwest of the island, is an active fishing village that guarantees glorious maritime fare for those who favour fish dishes. The island is also famed for its wine and olive oil production, with luscious lines of citrus groves and sprawling vines and olive trees. Conveniently close to Dubrovnik, there are endless opportunities for day trips from Sipan, or you can choose to stay put for sparkling turquoise waters and unforgettable sunsets. There are plenty of captivating coves perfect for casting anchor, as well as several beach bars on offer for guests who like to sip, sunbathe and socialize.

Mljet comes cloaked in forest and is also home to two interconnecting salt lakes. Located in the Mljet National Park, these lakes are fascinating for any history lover as they date back over ten thousand years and were once freshwater lakes until the Christian era. The melody of the deep green forest meets vibrant blue waters, creating a natural paradise for rest and play. On the tiny islet of Veliko Jazero, you'll find the 12th-century Benedictine Monastery of St. Mary. Charter guests can dive, cycle, swim in clear waters against fragrant pine backdrops, and visit the cave of Odysseus, said to be the spot that kept him hostage for seven years after a storm ruined his boat.
 

Generating even more hype as an alternative holiday spot to buzzing Croatia, Peljesac is all about wine and grapes hanging heavy from the vine, sprawling coastal stretches, empty shingle sands, and lashings of space to call your own. This dreamy Dalmatian charter spot is home to tip-top wineries that can even give the French vineyards a run for their money. Sip and swirl long into the afternoons with a plate of glistening oysters at your side. Active sailors can leave their yacht behind and take up windsurfing in the winds of the southwest corner down in Viganj. 
History lovers can explore 15th-century monasteries still thriving with a modern-day monk population. Walk the walls of Ston and dive down to find historic shipwrecks. Whatever mode or mood you are in, Peljesac has something special to offer you.

The lesser-known but highly treasured island of Croatia should top any charter itinerary. This beautiful island is all lush forests of fragrant Aleppo pine, Cyprus, and ancient Oak, narrow cobbled streets, and vibrant summer festivals. The fortified medieval town is a must and is the rumored birthplace of Marco Polo. Outside the town's 13th-century walls, you will find a wine lovers' oasis with sprawling vineyards, open cellar doors, and glorious cycling routes. Korcula is no stranger to the best beaches, with Pržina, Bilin Žal, and Proizd, some of the best in the area to explore by boat. Sword dances, honey tasting, and the small-town wineries welcome you to taste authentic Croatia.

Sun-soaked Hvar gleams like gold. As one of the brightest spots in Europe, this Croatian town is known for being a high-class beach destination. Those famous topaz skies shine above the sapphire sea, and the landscape boasts an idyllic mix of lavender and olive groves, rolling hills, red-roof towns, and sweet and shady pine forests. As one of the most enticing trading hubs - everyone from the Venetians to the Romans and the Greeks has left their mark on Hvar. Visit the Franciscan Monastery and see the famed Last Supper painting, sail the beautiful beaches of the Pakleni Islands, explore abandoned villages and walk the fortress walls, and be sure to sample some of the best Croatian wines available in the surrounding wineries.

In the north-eastern part of Vis Island, the town of Vis is situated at the bottom of a protected bay. If you are in love with culture, tradition, mystery and the best Adriatic cuisine has to offer, you will love Vis, or Issa (as the ancient Greeks called it). One of the reasons why Vis itself is considered a wonder is that it is a place where time remains still. Vis was established by ancient Greeks in 397 B.C, but has up to this day retained the old, irresistible Mediterranean charm and life without stress and trouble. It's a top destination for yachtsmen from all over the world and you will be able to find the secrets of Vis yourself.

The island of Šolta is another one of those unique places in Dalmatia where the traditional Croatian way of life has largely been preserved. Fishing is the main industry on the island, donkeys are still a viable method of transportation, and locals can be exceptionally generous, welcoming and warm to visitors. You will no doubt be charmed by its quaint villages, vineyards and olive groves, not to mention its beautiful beaches and natural coves. The speed of life here is markedly slower than in other areas of Croatia, and it's this slow pace of life that creates a perfect atmosphere for a leisurely stop on your itinerary.

Disembarkation at 9:00 in Split after a light breakfast
