Imagine beginning your week in Split, where Roman history meets the vibrant rhythm of modern Dalmatia. From here, your private gulet glides effortlessly between sun-drenched islands, secluded coves, and historic coastal towns — each day unfolding at a relaxed Adriatic pace. Over seven unforgettable days, you’ll swim in crystal-clear lagoons, dine ashore in atmospheric island towns, explore medieval streets, and enjoy golden sunsets from the deck of your yacht. This is Croatia as it’s meant to be experienced: unhurried, intimate, and entirely yours.
Day 1: Split - Trogir or Šolta
Begin your journey in Split, with time to explore the UNESCO-listed Diocletian’s Palace, one of the most impressive Roman monuments in Europe. Once on board, set sail toward the nearby islands. Swim in the turquoise waters of the Krknjaši Lagoon near Drvenik Veli, then continue either to the historic town of Trogir, a beautifully preserved medieval jewel, or to the quieter island of Šolta. In Šolta, anchor near secluded islets before enjoying dinner ashore in charming Maslinica, home to one of Croatia’s most elegant marinas.
Day 2: Šolta - Vis
After a morning swim in Šešula Bay, cruise toward the island of Vis, one of the Adriatic’s most authentic and unspoiled destinations. Anchor in a peaceful bay before heading ashore to explore Vis town. Enjoy a relaxed evening wandering the waterfront and dining in one of the island’s excellent local restaurants.
“Waking up to the Adriatic sunrise, with the islands slowly emerging from the morning light, is one of the quiet luxuries of life at sea.”
Day 3: Vis - Lastovo
Today you sail further south to Lastovo, a remote and deeply green island known for its forests, dramatic coastline, and tranquil atmosphere. Largely untouched by mass tourism, Lastovo is perfect for guests seeking privacy and nature. Anchor in one of its sheltered bays such as Zaklopatica, Pasadur, or Skrivena Luka, swim in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy a peaceful evening surrounded by nature.
Day 4: Lastovo → Korčula
Cruise to Korčula, one of the Adriatic’s most beautiful medieval towns. Drop anchor near the old harbour and take in the postcard-perfect view of its fortified walls. Spend the afternoon exploring narrow stone streets, visiting St. Mark’s Cathedral, and discovering the town often said to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. In the evening, dine ashore in one of Korčula’s excellent konobas, where Dalmatian flavours meet refined island cuisine.
Day 5: Korčula - Hvar
Sail toward Stari Grad, one of Croatia’s oldest settlements, founded by the Greeks in 385 BC. Visit the historic Tvrdalj Fortress before continuing to Hvar Town. Hvar blends Venetian elegance with a lively Mediterranean atmosphere. Climb to the Španjola Fortress for sweeping views over the harbour, then enjoy an evening of fine dining, cocktails, and optional nightlife.
Day 6: Hvar - Brač
Cruise to Brač, one of the largest Adriatic islands, celebrated for its white stone, olive groves, and stunning beaches. Swim and relax near Zlatni Rat, one of Croatia’s most iconic beaches, or enjoy water sports in secluded bays. Optional visits include olive oil producers or the famous stone masonry school. A perfect day to slow down and soak up the natural beauty of the Adriatic.
Day 7: Brač - Split
Return to Split . Explore local food markets, revisit the old town, or take an optional excursion to Klis Fortress, a dramatic hilltop citadel and Game of Thrones filming location with panoramic views over Dalmatia. Enjoy an evening stroll along Split’s lively waterfront, reflecting on a week spent sailing one of Europe’s most beautiful coastlines.
Day 8: Disembarkation in Split
After breakfast, it’s time to say goodbye to your gulet and crew — though the Adriatic often has a way of calling guests back again.
