Croatia

Day 1: Dubrovnik
Arrival from 13:00 at the port of Gruz. Due to the many flights to Croatia, the first night is planned in Dubrovnik, a unique city on the Adriatic coast. The whole of the old city, classified as a UNESCO World Heritage site can only be visited on foot. Surrounded by medieval walls, it contains monuments and white stone churches, palaces and museums. Spend your afternoon exploring. Dinner and overnight on board.

Day 2: Dubrovnik - Mljet
In the morning, your captain will take you to the island of Mljet and its national park. Lunch on board and free afternoon to explore the salt lakes, the sun and the sea. In the middle of the lake inside the national park, it is possible to visit an old abbey, a church, or simply to stroll around the national park. Bicycles can be rented for walking on the surrounding trails, or cars for those wishing to go further. Night in the port Polača / Pomena.

Day 3: Mljet - Hvar
Early in the morning, sail to the small island of Šćedro. You will have enough time to relax and cool off in the crystal clear sea. After lunch, departure for Hvar, the longest island in the Adriatic. The local heritage consists of St. Stephen's Cathedral, built on the ruins of an early Christian church of the 6th century, and the community theatre dating from 1612; the oldest in Europe. In Hvar, the atmosphere is bustling: you will find many restaurants, bars and cafes that stay open long into the night.

Day 4: Hvar - Korčula
During breakfast, your boat heads to Korčula, the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. Lunch on board Lumbarda Bay before arriving on the island. Once there, you are free to choose your program. Surrounded by ancient walls and fortified bastions, the old town of Korčula remains very well preserved with its 13th century structure. We advise you to go for a ride. Night in the harbor.

Day 5: Korčula - Trstenik
The ship will leave Korčula in the direction of the port of Trstenik on the Pelješac peninsula. Lunch on board and a chance to swim. The local inhabitants live on agriculture, production from vineyards (including the famous Plavac wine Mali, ancestor of the Californian Zinfandel), fishing and tourism. Stroll along the coastline, covered in fragrant pinewood and taste local wines.

Day 6: Trstenik - Šipan
Your captain continues sailing to the Elaphiti Islands, a group of islands west of Dubrovnik. Composed of Šipan, Lopud and Koločep (Kalamota), it attracts many tourists every year thanks to their breathtaking landscapes and sandy beaches. Lunch and swimming in the afternoon. The day will end at Šipan, the largest island of the elaphites.

Day 7: Šipan - Dubrovnik
Navigation back to Dubrovnik and breakfast. The famous writer George Bernard Shaw compares this navigation to "heaven on earth": nature is in abundance. A free afternoon will give you the opportunity to visit the city or participate in an English-speaking guided tour. We recommend taking a cable car ride to the top of the Srđ mountain for a panoramic view of the old town. Night in Gruž harbor.

Day 8: Dubrovnik
After breakfast, it's time to say goodbye to the crew and your new friends! Possibility of a day trip to Montenegro (optional).
