Introduction
Enjoy seven unforgettable days cruising on the southern Adriatic Sea from one island to another with the small ship cruiser. Relax and let the captain, the crew and our tour manager, take care of you. Mornings you can relax on spacious decks and sunbathe or refresh yourself in the Adriatic Sea. Afternoons and evenings are carefully planned for you to explore Croatia's finest destinations with local experts.
Day 1: Saturday: Split Split is a monument city under UNESCO protection that is there for everyone to enjoy, both residents and visitors, because it is in the world heritage. Here examples of Roman architecture are plentiful – of special interest is Diocletian’s palace, built by the Roman emperor as his retirement home. Enjoy the evening wandering through parts of the palace and along Split’s famous waterfront. Overnight in Split. DAY 2 Split – Rogoznica and Primosten (B,L) During breakfast, we commence our journey towards Rogoznica. Lunch is served en route followed by a stop in a quiet bay (known to the Captain!) for an afternoon swim. Overnight in Rogoznica - a small village that offers many restaurants and small cafes. Do try the famous Babic wine that is made locally. We will also call at Primošten, a small picturesque town situated between Šibenik and Trogir, in the central part of the Adriatic coast and surrounded by seven other islets, a wonderful site and a beautiful place to explore.
DAY 3 Rogoznica – Vodice (B, L) Today we cruise to Vodice with swimming/snorkelling stops en route
Overnight in Vodice or Zlarin, depending on the state of the port and port authorities. Vodice are a typical Dalmatian town and Zlarin is a tiny island in the Šibenik archipelago.
DAY 4 Vodice – Zadar (B, L)
Our morning is reserved for swimming. In the afternoon, we depart for Zadar where we spend the night in the port. Here you can join a guided tour of the city with a local tour guide. Zadar was important for centuries as the metropolis of Dalmatia, and today it is the centre of the region. It has been a city rich in monumental heritage of world importance and the most visited sites include the Roman forum dating back to the 1st century AD, the church of St. Donatus from the 9th century AD – the most famous Medieval basilica and the symbol of the city, the mighty city walls with the representative Port and Land gates from the 16th century AD. Also, numerous glorious palaces, and villas. There are many superb restaurants in the centre and by the waterfront. From historic places to the contemporary, don`t miss a visit to the famous Zadar Sea Organ and “The Greeting to the Sun” light installation, both are spectacular. Overnight in Zadar.
DAY 5 Zadar – Murter Murter is the largest town on the island with the same name, which includes over 160 islands, islets and reefs in Kornati archipelago. The authentic stone streets with the archways, the simple peasant houses, and stone walls covered with climbing plants in the old part of Murter preserve life as it was once was - an old Roman settlement with luxurious villas. Today, this is all made visible by the numerous sites on the island and in the sea. It is a very interesting place for sailors because of the marinas and the vicinity of the Kornati islands. If you are not a sailor, the sandy bays (Slanica), very warm, clear sea and good fun will certainly attract your attention. DAY 6 Murter – Sibenik
Šibenik is almost in the very central part of Croatia’s Adriatic coast and is our todays destination. Enjoy the guided tour of the glorious old town Šibenik, the cultural monuments and possibly the most famous one here, the UNESCO listed Cathedral of St James. Wander and discover the historic core and waterfront. Some good boutique shopping too. Overnight in Šibenik.
DAY 7 - Sibenek - Trogir
After lunch, we cruise to the old Dalmatian town, of Trogir (Greek relief from 4th century was found here). Trogir is sometimes referred to as “miniature Venice” or a “mini Dubrovnik” because of its ancient walls, or a floating museum town - as it has a masterful architecture including some stunning Venetian palaces. Join our guided tour of Trogir with a local tour guide. The old town is an UNESCO heritage site and there’s a great choice of bars and restaurants. Overnight in Trogir. DAY 8 Trogir - Split
We return to Split by early afternoon. It’s time to say goodbye to the crew and all your new friends. Hope to see you again on board! The Captain may change the itinerary to suit weather conditions and port availability
