DAY 2 Split - Brac - Hvar
Set sail this morning, cruising through the stunning Dalmatian Islands to the Island of Brac where you will stop in the town of Bol, where you have the chance for a refreshing swim stop at the iconic Zlatni Rat (also known as Golden Horn beach). After, cruise towards Hvar Island, enjoying another swim stop along the way before arriving at the charming town of Jelsa, situated on the northern side of Hvar Island, where you will spend the night.

DAY 3 Hvar
Your Hvar experience continues with an in-depth introduction to island life on one of the world’s most stunning islands. Explore small fishing villages, see its vineyard-covered hills, olive groves and undulating fields of rosemary and lavender (seasonal), followed by a traditional Peka lunch including wine tasting at a local konoba (traditional tavern). In the afternoon arrive to Hvar Town, the historical centre of Hvar Island, for a guided walking tour of this popular Adriatic hot spot.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch

DAY 4 Hvar - Vis
We continue our cruise with a stop for a refreshing swim in the warm waters of the Adriatic on our way to beautiful Vis Island. Until the late 80’s Vis was closed to tourists and served as a military zone for the Yugoslav army, because of this and coupled with its remoteness, it has helped preserve the island's authenticity. Enjoy time in Vis Town to experience the island's local food and wine, discover Greek and Roman ruins or simply marvel in the beauty of this island that featured in the movie Mama Mia 2.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch

Please note: The port of call in Vis can be substituted for Komiza because of the limited capacity in the harbour of Vis Town.

DAY 5 Vis - Bisevo - Korcula
We cruise to Bisevo Island’s incredible Blue Cave, a unique otherworldly natural phenomenon. Only recently opened to the public, its silvery blue waters are a must to see. Afterwards enjoy lunch on board and a relaxing swim stop on the way to the island of Korcula. Cruise along the length of the island to enchanting Korcula Town where, on a walking tour, we will see the mighty fortress and city walls.

Meals included: Breakfast and lunch

Please note: The Blue Cave is only accessible with small boats through an entrance just 1.5m high so it is unfortunately sometimes made inaccessible by bad weather and high waves.

DAY 6 Korcula - Mljet - Slano
Depart Korcula early and continue your journey to Mljet, one of Adriatic’s prettiest islands. Embrace the relaxed atmosphere and unspoilt beauty of the National Park, its two unique salt water lakes and medieval monastery.
