Guide

On this trip you will be accompanied by one of our skippers. Your skipperโ€™s role involves taking charge of the sailing, the safety of the vessel and safety for all passengers on board. Skippers all hold a Yacht Master Offshore license or higher and have completed an intense training and review process before sailing with us. They are also fully qualified in CPR : and First Aid. The aim of the skipper is also to take the hassle out of your travels by organizing the overall operation and smooth-running of the trip, managing trip logistics and coordinating the kitty (where applicable). Your skipper will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense you can expect skippers to have a broad general knowledge of the places visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious and social aspects.

Transport

This is a sailing adventure so our time is spent on board a monohull yacht. You may be asked to assist on-deck, particularly when coming into or leaving port. No experience is necessary, but getting to know some โ€™sailing languageโ€™ might help to get you into the spirit of the adventure.

Accommodation

This trip is accommodated entirely on board a yacht of between 48ft to 52ft. A typical yacht for 8 travellers is equipped with 4 double share cabins, 2/3 shared bathrooms and 2 showers. Our boats are real yachtโ€™s and this is a real sailing trip. Yachts are designed to keep sleeping areas to the absolute minimum of space, while maximising common areas as much as possible. Rooms are allocated on arrival by our skipper according to group composition, which means it is not possible to reserve or guarantee any specific berth or cabin. Single passengers will be paired up with another passenger of the same gender, which will mean sharing a double cabin with a double mattress. Everyone including the skipper shares the bathrooms on board. There is no twin share bedding on this yacht. While not everyone may feel entirely comfortable living in such close quarters, those who are looking to revel in the adventure and exhilaration of an authentic sailing trip usually find any discomfort from cramped living conditions is more than made up for by the whole experience. ADDITIONAL ACCOMMODATION: Please note that the majority of our sailing trips start and/or finish at a marina or port. For most of our destinations, we can provide transfers between the airport/hotel and the port/marina. Please check the joining and finish point information in the trip notes for details. ELECTRICITY: While there should be electricity on board throughout your trip the voltage is likely to vary widely, from 12V to 220V, and when in port or moored we are dependent on the supply available. Please be aware that the supply may not be sufficient to power some electronic devices all the time and that you may need a voltage adapter or similar (such as portable inverter used in cars). On some trips it may be possible to charge devices ashore at restaurants or resorts, however this is not guaranteed. WI-FI: Please note that our sailing boats do not have Wi-Fi. You will be getting off the boat and visiting towns regularly so you will be able to connect with the outside world then. Overnight boat (7 nights)

Itinerary of your trip Croatia Sailing Adventure: Dubrovnik To Split

  • Day 1 Day 1: Dubrovnik To Elafiti Islands
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Dubrovnik To Elafiti Islands

      Dobro Dosli! Welcome to Croatia. Your adventure begins in Dubrovnik with a group meeting at 3 pm. If you arrive early, why not take a self-paced walking tour of Dubrovnik โ€“ the undisputed jewel of the Dalmatian Coast. With the sparkling water of the Adriatic in the background, this picturesque, medieval city is full of character and perfect for wandering around on two feet (especially if youโ€™re a Game of Thrones fan). After your meeting, youโ€™ll head to the local supermarket to buy supplies for your trip, then board the yacht and sail the open waters of the Adriatic to the Elafiti Islands. Elafiti is made up of three main islands โ€“ Kolocep (known as the green island due to its 100 year old pine groves, carol-trees, olive groves and citrus trees), Lopud (this island has spectacular parks and beaches and is one of the best developed touristic islands in the Dubrovnik area) and Sipan (the largest of the island group with a long history full of stories and legends, considered one of the jewels of the area).

  • Day 2 Day 2: Elafiti Islands To Mljet
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2: Elafiti Islands To Mljet

      After breakfast onboard, set sail for the island of Mljet, stopping for a swim along the way. Legendary in ancient history as the island where the shipwrecked Odysseus lived for seven years, today the island is a haven of lush national park, forests and small villages. Since Greek sailors sought haven here from storms, the island has been inhabited by Illyrians, Romans, Slavs and Avars. In the 13th century the island was given to the Benedictine order who built a monastery in the middle of one of the islandโ€™s western lakes โ€“ Veliko Jezero. When you arrive, perhaps rent a bike and cycle through the national park. Tonight, you could try the local wine โ€“ the fields and vineyards that dot the island are the foundation of the local economy, with Mljetโ€™s villagers producing wine and olive oil as they have been for hundreds of years.

  • Day 3 Day 3: Mljet To Korcula
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 3: Mljet To Korcula

      Sail north through the jewel-like waters to Korcula this morning via the Peljeski Channel. Stop along the way for a refreshing morning swim, then sail on. Greeks settled in Korcula in the 6th century BC, but the town was also occupied by the Romans, Slavs and then the Venetians between 1420 and 1797. Even Napoleon was ruler for a while! As a result of all these influences, Korcula has a cosmopolitan Old Town. Alongside the idyllic beaches, youโ€™ll have plenty of options for your free time. Ask your leader for the best dinner recommendations for a good feed.

  • Day 4 Day 4: Korcula To Hvar
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4: Korcula To Hvar

      Make breakfast onboard the yacht this morning and then set sail for the day. Make a stop around Lovista or Scedro for a morning swim and then settle in for an afternoon of beach hopping. Enjoy seafood fresh from the dayโ€™s catch and kick back with cocktails on the waterfront as you sail around the scenic islands. Youโ€™ll make your way slowly to Hvar, where you can wander around the towns, home to some wonderfully preserved Renaissance facades. If you like, hike past dramatic jagged limestone cliffs and undulating farms, ancient olive groves and fields of rosemary and lavender. Thereโ€™s also an option to cross the island by car to Hvar Town โ€“ often known as the โ€˜San Tropez of Croatiaโ€™.

  • Day 5 Day 5: Hvar To Vis
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 5: Hvar To Vis

      Today, youโ€™ll cruise on to Vis โ€“ the furthest island from the mainland. Stop at the Pakleni Islands or Stoncica along the way for a swim. When you arrive, you can take an optional tour to learn about the islandโ€™s history โ€“ passing between Greek, Roman, Venetian, Napoleonic, Austrian and Italian hands. Visit nuclear fallout shelters, churches and vantage points with great views across the ocean. If you like, you can also take an optional winery tour and indulge in a few glasses of the local vino.

  • Day 6 Day 6: Vis To Brac
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 6: Vis To Brac

      After breakfast, bid farewell to Vis and set sail to sunny Brac โ€“ the largest island in central Dalmatia. On the way, you might stop in for a swim near Milna or the island of Solta. With its distinctly Mediterranean landscape, Brac is famous for the white stone mined from the islandโ€™s quarries โ€“ cladding buildings as historic as Diocletianโ€™s Palace in Split and as iconic as the White House in Washington DC. Take a leisurely cruise along the coast, soaking up the sunshine and the scenery. Then, weigh anchor and go for a dip in the sea or snorkel and spot sea anemones, crabs, sea urchins and small fish.

  • Day 7 Day 7: Brac To Split
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 7: Brac To Split

      In the morning, say goodbye to Brac and approach the palm-lined harbour of Split from its best side โ€“ framed by towering coastal mountains and the blue of the Adriatic. Youโ€™ll arrive in the city at approximately 3 pm, giving you time to explore the impressive ruins of Diocletianโ€™s Palace, Splitโ€™s most imposing structure. Stroll the markets just outside the palace walls, then perhaps enjoy a final group dinner in this vibrant Croatian city to celebrate your sailing adventure!

  • Day 8 Day 8: Split
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 8: Split

      After breakfast aboard the yacht, your trip will end around 10 am. There are no activities planned for today and youโ€™re free to depart at any time. *Please note that the sailing times listed above are a guide only and subject to change. They are dependent on weather and sailing conditions.
