CROATIA SAIL - Dubrovnik to Split (The Northern Explorer)

Kick off your Croatian adventure in the historic city of Split. After meeting your tour crew and enjoying a delicious onboard lunch, we'll head to the Old Town for a day of exploration. Take a cable car ride up to Sr Mountain for breathtaking views of the Old Town, walk the city walls, and watch local cliff divers take daring leaps into the Adriatic. As the day winds down, savor local seafood delicacies and prepare for a night of fun at local wine bars and one of Europe's top clubs.

We set sail from Split towards the serene Mljet Island, stopping at the Pelješac peninsula for a refreshing swim. In the afternoon, we'll visit the tranquil salt lakes in Mljet National Park. Don't miss the chance to visit the monastery on St. Mary Isle nestled in the middle of the large lake. We'll dock overnight in the port of Polaa/Pomena.

Wave goodbye to Mljet as we set sail for Korula, the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. After a delightful onboard lunch in the Lumbarda bay, we'll dock in the port of Korula. Spend the afternoon exploring the Old Town, rich in legends, tales, and monuments. As the sun sets, join the group for dinner and cocktails at a seafront restaurant, soaking in the stunning views.

We depart for the Pakleni Islands in the morning, stopping for lunch and a swim. Our next destination is Hvar, the longest island in the Adriatic. Spend the afternoon exploring the island's highlights, including the hilltop fortress and the old square. Don't miss our wine tasting excursion with views of the 16th Century cathedral and bell tower. As night falls, experience the vibrant nightlife at the famous Carpe Diem club.

Leaving the vibrant port of Hvar, we'll make a refreshing swim stop in the Adriatic before arriving in Makarska, the gem of the riviera. Spend the afternoon exploring the local markets, enjoying water sports, or strolling through the old town with the Biokovo mountain range as your backdrop. As night falls, taste local specialities and experience the town's exciting nightlife.

From the tranquil beauty of Makarska, we head to Omis, the adventure capital of the Dalmatian coast. Here, you can get your adrenaline pumping with river rafting on the Cetina river or ziplining over the mountains. If you prefer a more relaxed day, explore Omis old town, walk to the fortress for stunning views, or head to the beach.

On our final sailing day, we'll take it easy, giving you plenty of opportunities for one last jump off the boat. After lunch, we'll start our journey back to Split, taking in the views of the Split Riviera. Once we dock, join us for a walk through the UNESCO-protected city, exploring the abundance of Roman architecture, including the Diocletian palace. End the day with a final dinner with your new friends, reminiscing about your unforgettable Croatian adventure.

Our week-long adventure on the seas comes to an end after breakfast. If you have an early flight, you can depart earlier as we'll be docked in the port from the evening before. As you bid farewell to your new friends and the beautiful country of Croatia, we hope you take with you unforgettable memories and experiences.
