Day by Day
Day 1 — Split → Čiovo → Trogir
Embarkation in Split and cruise to the island of Čiovo for your first swim, then on to Trogir and by 6 pm to the Riva of this Venetian UNESCO city. Dinner ashore.
Day 2 — Trogir → Hvar Town
Over to Hvar, with the aim of mooring at the promenade of Hvar in the early afternoon. Anchor off the Pakleni Islands for swimming and then go ashore for Hvar’s famous nightlife.
Day 3 — Hvar → Pakleni → Vis
A morning at the Pakleni Islands, then the crossing to Vis — the most distant inhabited island, closed to visitors for decades and all the more charming because of it. Dinner in Komiža: perhaps Pojoda, Kaliope or the lobster restaurant Jastožera.
Day 4 — Vis → Korčula
A longer leg (around 44 nm) to the island of Korčula with its walled old town, which is considered the birthplace of Marco Polo. The evening on the city walls.
Day 5 — Korčula → Jelsa (Hvar)
Back to the quieter eastern end of Hvar and to the green port town of Jelsa — vineyards, a sleepy square and a dinner away from the crowds.
Day 6 — Jelsa → Bol (Brač)
A short leg to Bol on the island of Brač, home to Zlatni Rat — the wandering golden pebble spit, Croatia’s most photographed beach. Optional stops at Povlja or Maslinica on Šolta.
Day 7 — Bol → Split
The final leg back to Split. A last swim, a view of Diocletian’s Palace and a farewell dinner on board.
Day 8 — Split
Breakfast and disembarkation.
