Cruise the aquamarine Adriatic, from Dubrovnik to Split.
Experience the elegance and old-world charm of Croatia on a small ship Adventure Cruise offering impressive coastlines, delightful towns and the sparkling waters of the Adriatic. While treasures like Hvar and Split are no secret to travellers, your small ship enables you to explore lesser-known towns and islands, stepping right off the boat onto their cobblestone streets. Stroll through enchanting alleyways in Mostar, dive into crystal-clear waters off the coast of Kornati National Park’s many islands, and satisfy your tastebuds with fresh seafood and local wines along the way. Navigate the stunning Dalmatian coast to discover the heart and soul of Croatia.

Why you'll love this trip
-
Take an excursion to Krka National Park, where you’ll get a chance to swim in secluded pools and beneath waterfalls.
-
Board a traditional wooden vessel and sail up along the spectacular Neretva River to Bosnia and Herzegovina, allowing you to explore the beautiful town of Mostar.
-
Dive into the aquamarine waters of the Dalmatian Coast – your captain will be stopping the ship to allow you to enjoy swim breaks in between port stops.
-
Eat and drink like Dalmatian royalty – visit one of Croatia’s finest wineries then enjoy a traditional feast in a small village outside Sibenik, renowned for its smoked ham.
-
Experience the Sea Organ in Zadar, an incredible marriage of acoustical engineering and historical art – appreciate the ambience of this masterpiece with a glass of sparkling wine at sunset.
Is this trip right for you?
-
This is small ship Adventure Cruising, which means you’ll be sailing on a yacht with 30—50 other people. The boat is spacious and comfortable, but the itinerary focuses more on the destination than on-board activities. Instead of a pool, we have the sea itself. Instead of a casino, we’ve got board games and a good book. There’s also no formal dress code to worry about and Wi-Fi is available for a small charge.
-
Our ship moves under engine power, rather than sailing, so all cabins will experience light engine noise when the ship is moving (and occasionally when we drop anchor). It’s probably worth packing earplugs if you’re a light sleeper.
-
Unlike other ships that cruise through the night, we’ll spend our evenings docked at port. This will give you more time to dine ashore and enjoy those balmy Croatian evenings. Cruising will mostly take place during the day.
-
Onshore activities and excursions will involve a bit of walking. You’ll be visiting ancient sites and historical places, and at times you may have to cross cobbled streets and uneven ground, sometimes in hot conditions. If you have any concerns, please speak to your group leader before taking part.
-
Most of our departures run in peak season, when the seas are calmer. The ship will experience some roll and pitch in choppy conditions, however all of our ships come equipped with stabilisers to minimise movement. There will be seasickness tablets on board and your crew will do all they can to minimise any discomfort.
-
There are no lifts (elevators) on board our ships, so you’ll have to navigate a few steep flights of stairs (fitted with handrails) to access all the decks.
