Croatia is an Eastern European country with a long coastline on the Adriatic Sea. Encompassing more than a thousand islands, it’s also crossed by the Dinaric Alps. Its inland capital, Zagreb, is distinguished by its medieval Gornji Grad (Upper Town) and diverse museums. The major coastal city Dubrovnik has massive 16th-century walls encircling an Old Town with Gothic and Renaissance buildings.
Itinerary
Trogir
Trogir is a historic town and harbour on the Adriatic coast in Split-Dalmatia County, Croatia. We start from and return to Trogir (unless taking the one-way option). Trogir is a UNESCO world heritage site and a great place to explore the old walled city. The marina is a short water taxi ride away.
Hvar
Hvar, a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, is best known as a summer resort. Highlights of the port town Hvar include its 13th-century walls, a hilltop fortress and a main square anchored by the Renaissance-era Hvar Cathedral. The island also features beaches like Dubovica and inland lavender fields. Boat excursions serve the nearby Pakleni Islands, which have secluded beaches and coves. The night is spent on a buoy in the harbour and we either eat aboard or ashore.
Korcula
Korčula is a Croatian island in the Adriatic Sea, off the mainland’s Pelješac peninsula. The town Korčula is known for the medieval towers and walls fortifying its harbor. Its central square features the Cathedral of St. Mark, begun in the 14th century. The island’s beaches include Vela Przina, a wide crescent that’s popular with families, and Pupnatska Luka, a turquoise cove.
Lastovo
Lastovo is an island municipality in the Dubrovnik-Neretva County in Croatia. This anchorage is a beautiful, well protected stop and we stay on the boat and eat aboard.
Pakleni Islands (Trogir Return)
The Pakleni or Paklinski islands are located off the southwest coast of the island of Hvar, Croatia, opposite the entrance to the Hvar harbour. Another beautiful anchorage, this time with a restaurant which is a short 15 min walk, with views overlooking Hvar. Great for a Sundowner. We book this restaurant 1 day in advance and eat ashore.
Komiza (Trogir Return)
Komiza is located in a deep bay on the western side of the island Vis below the 600 meter high mountain Hum. A great attraction to visit in the morning afterwards is the Blue Cave. A night ashore in the harbour.
Mljet (one way option)
Mljet is the first larger island one come upon while sailing the Croatian Adriatic from the direction from south to north. It is Croatia’s greenest island with its Mediterranean vegetation, clear and clean sea, gentle sandy shoreline and a wealth of underwater sea life. The island is conisdered to be one of the most beautiful of the Croatian islands too.
Mljet is well known for its white and red wine, olives and goat’s cheese. Mljet is indeed s unspoilt island that is covered by a dense Mediterranean forest. A night eating onboard in a quiet anchorage.
