Southern treasures Cruise from Dubrovnik

After breakfast, cruise towards the island and Mljet National Park (entrance fee to be paid on the spot, 25EUR). Lunch on board. Free time to enjoy visiting the National park and its salt lakes. In the middle of a large lake, one can visit an old abbey and church or use a canoe to roam around the lakes. You can also rent bicycles around the paths surrounding the lakes. We continue to the island of Korcula, where we arrive in the late afternoon. With its old town surrounded by city walls and fortified bastions, Korcula's capital is one of the most picturesque towns in Dalmatia. Enjoy a stroll around these medieval Dalmatian attractions with our local guide before gazing out towards the sea from one of Korcula's many terraces and enjoying a glass of wine from one of the many vineyards on the island. Overnight in port.

Early in the morning, cruise towards the little island of Bisevo with a must-see Blue cave (Modra spilja). That is an underwater cave with a blue light shining through. The cave can only be reached by boat, and its crystal clear waters and beautiful blue entrance are truly breathtaking. Entrance is to be paid on the spot (approx. EUR 18.- per person). The cruise continues towards Vis – a small island in the Adriatic Sea with the unique charm of 'the desert island'. Vis remained untouched by tourism until recently, which makes it interesting to see. If interested, visit the remains of an ancient Roman thermal palace or simply take a walk enjoying the rustic villas along the waterfront. Overnight in Vis.

Today we are taking you to the island of Scedro near Hvar, an island with a beautiful, clean sea and crystal blue waters. It's time to relax and refresh in the natural environment. Departure towards Hvar after lunch, followed by a guided tour. Discover new worlds, explore the coast, and savour ancient flavours. Enjoy great attractions like the Renaissance cathedral with its original tower and the oldest community theatre in Europe, founded here in 1612. Explore museums, galleries, and atmospheric churches. Hvar offers plenty of restaurants, bars, cafes, and clubs, open long into the night. Overnight in the Hvar harbour.

Soak up the sun on your day at sea and continue cruising towards Brac, an island located off the Croatian coast. Here you will arrive at our destination of Bol, renowned for its golden shoreline and unique shape known as Zlatni rat Beach. After the swimming break, cruise towards Makarska with its Mediterranean feel. Overnight in Makarska.

Today's destination is Pucisca, a typical Mediterranean village situated on the northern side of Brac Island at the bottom of a deep bay. Before arriving, we will take you to some secluded bay along the route where you can swim and relax. After landing in Pucisca, you may explore the village or relax on the beach. This small town is home to white stone from Brac, which is world-famous for its quality and natural beauty. You can visit one of the few stone masonry workshops left in Europe. Overnight in the port with the Captain's dinner onboard.

The final destination on this cruise is the city of Split, a modern city with a long history. The Old Town (Stari Grad) has a maze of streets and cobblestoned lanes surrounding the 1700 years old Diocletian's Palace (the Emperor chose this spot for his retirement villa). Both the old town and Diocletian's Palace are under UNESCO protection. Enjoy a guided tour and free time on your last evening. Overnight in Split.
