Day by Day Itinerary
SPLIT (D)
Upon arrival, you can rest up and get ready for your adventure in the comfort of your cabin or get a head start by exploring the ancient city of Split. In the evening, enjoy a welcome cocktail party and Captain’s dinner where you’ll be able to get to know your fellow passengers, as well as the captain and crew.Overnight in Split.
Split to Omis to Pucisca (Brač Island) (B,L)
Today you’ll get a more in-depth look at Split’s highlights with a guided tour of the historic inner city built around Roman Emperor Diocletian’s Palace which dates back to the 4th-century AD. View the maze of fantastic buildings, including Gothic and Renaissance structures before setting sail for Omis. This photogenic town is surrounded by steep rock cliffs where the River Cetina flows into the Adriatic. You’ll witness its snow-white pebble beach, lovely stone churches, grand fortresses and city walls before we journey to our final stop on the island of Brac. Here you’ll discover what many refer to as Croatia’s most beautiful village, Pučišća, with its gleaming white stone, indigent to the island, that makes it truly one of a kind. Overnight in Pucisca
Pučišća to Bol to Hvar (B,L)
Sailing on to the picturesque fishing village of Bol, we’ll visit Zlanti Rat, also known as the ‘Golden Horn.’ Splashed on postcards, brochures and posters of Croatia, it’s often called the country’s best beach, with a shape that changes depending on the winds like liquid gold. You’ll have time to take it all in soaking up the sunshine in between refreshing dips in the turquoise water. A decidedly different experience awaits on the island of Hvar, a popular playground for international jet-setters. Take a sightseeing tour to learn about the island’s history, culture and traditions, visiting historical sights like Europe’s first public theater. Afterward sample traditional Dalmatian specialties at dinner in one of the local family-run eateries. Overnight in Hvar
Hvar – Biševo Island (Blue Cave) – Vis (B,L)
Cruise to Bisevo Island where you’ll be able to take in one of the country’s most magical sights. Watch the sun beam its light through an opening in the cave, with the rays reflected from the white sea bottom, it’s illuminated in a dazzling aquamarine shade. Sailing onto the unspoiled island of Vis, closed for decades to commercial tourism, it’s like a trip back in time to the “Mediterranean as it once was,” with sun-kissed beaches, untouched nature, well-preserved architecture and the remains of ancient Issa, including a theater and necropolis. Overnight in Vis
Vis to Korčula (B,L)
Next stop is the island of Korcula, best-known as the birthplace of one of the world’s most famous travelers, Marco Polo, but first you’ll have the opportunity to get re-energized with a swim in one of the secluded bays or coves along the way. In the historic town of Korcula, stroll the entrancing cobblestone streets, discovering all sorts of delights like the Gothic Baroque Cathedral of St. Mark, interesting shops and cafes, before dining on a traditional Dalmatian meal for dinner in one of the local eateries. Overnight in Korcula
Korčula to Mljet National Park (B, L D)
Enjoy a swim or snorkel as we make our way through the islands, cruising to lush Mljet National Park. You’ll be able to experience its stunning beauty, including two saltwater lakes connected by a narrow channel to the sea and take a boat trip to the Isle of St. Mary, home to a 12th-century Benedictine Monastery. You’ll have time to admire the captivating scenery on Dalmatia’s most southerly island, nearly all pine forest, bisected by a single road. Tonight is Captain’s Dinner with live local entertainment. Overnight in Mljet National Park.
Mljet National Park to Dubrovnik (B,L)
Jump into the enticing waters that frame the small archipelago known as the Elaphiti Islands just northwest of Dubrovnik before we arrive into the port of the “Pearl of the Adriatic” itself. An expert will guide you through the ancient Old Town where you’ll be awed by sights like the Gothic Rector’s Palace.
