Landing in Split, we’ll meet you at the airport and take you to our hostel in the Old Town. Once checked in you’ll have plenty of time to refresh before meeting everyone else in the group. Tonight we’ll get our first taste of the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle as we head out for dinner and drinks.

Day 1: Arrive in Split

This morning we’ll gain an insight into Croatia’s fascinating history on a walking tour of Split. After soaking up the Roman heritage, at midday we’re climbing aboard our premium boat - home for the next 7 nights. With spacious en-suite cabins, aircon, and multiple sundecks for topping up our tans... the island-hopping lifestyle awaits! As we start sailing the Dalmatian coast we’ll have our first three-course lunch on board, then jump straight into the water at our first swim stop. Arriving in Makarska, a town framed by beautiful mountains and long beaches, tonight there’s plenty of time to explore.

Day 2: Split Walking Tour and Makarska

Today we’re cruising to Mljet, a tranquil protected island in the heart of the Adriatic. Our boat will anchor in a secluded bay getting us acquainted with the Croatian routine - swim, eat, explore, repeat. After another feast of locally sourced food (think grilled meat and fresh veg), our boat will dock in town so we can roam the National Park by bike. This evening we’ll dress a little fancy for the captain’s dinner and enjoy a few drinks on deck.&nbsp;

Day 3: Mljet National Park

&nbsp;While we’re snoozing our boat will drift to the bucket-list ticking city of Dubrovnik. Poised elegantly on the Adriatic, Dubrovnik is famous for its magnificent walled Old Town, and plenty of Games of Thrones filming locations, of course! To take it all in we’ll go on a guided walking tour, then get some action on a kayaking trip to check out the view from the water. After the sun goes down we will dine at a local restaurant before seeing what Dubrovnik’s bars and clubs have to offer. Party in a fortress, anyone?&nbsp;

Day 4: Discover Dubrovnik

Leaving Dubrovnik, we’ll drift past olive trees and vineyards as our captain finds a hidden bay for us to anchor. Practice your flips, go for a snorkel, enjoy an ice-cold Ozujsko, it’s another tough day in paradise. Later this afternoon we’ll dock in the quaint fishing village of Trstenik. Famous for wine, we’ll wander the sun-dappled streets and take in Croatia at its most authentic.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Day 5: Sail to Trstenik

After another stint at sea today we’re docking in Korcula, one of Croatia’s charming island towns. Ringed with walls, paved with marble, and built around a stunning 15th Century Cathedral, Korcula is a mini-Dubrovnik without the tourists. We’ll show you the sites, then the balmy summer afternoon is yours to explore the Venetian Old Town. Foodies will love the elegant restaurants on the town’s fringe, and those inclined towards a cocktail have plenty of sunset bars to seek out&nbsp;

Day 6: Enjoy the Venetian Town Of Korcula

You know the drill - first up is our swim stop and lunch on board, then this afternoon we’re heading to the glamorous town of Hvar. Playground of the rich and famous, this is where super-yachts meet Renaissance architecture. Rising above terracotta rooftops, we’ll climb to the Spanish Fortress for one of the best views in Croatia before heading to a ritzy beach club. Sunset on the horizon, tropical beats in the air, by now we’re fully immersed in the island vibe. With plenty of clubs open ‘til the early hours, if you want to have a big night, Hvar is the place&nbsp;

Day 7: Get A Taste Of The High Life Hvar

It’s our final sailing day, but there’s plenty more mainland action to come! On the way back we’ll stop at Bol to visit Croatia’s most famous beach, Zlatni Rat, an elegant stretch of white pebbles that tapers into the sea. Drifting into Split this afternoon, we’ll be greeted with amazing views of the Riviera. Whether you want to wander down the Riva, pick up a souvenir from the markets, find a beach, or check out more Game of Thrones filming spots, the afternoon is yours.&nbsp;

Day 8: Sail to Split via Bol

&nbsp;After a final breakfast on board, we’ll wave goodbye to our crew and head to the famous Krka Waterfalls. Photogenic and otherworldly, chasing these beautiful landscapes under the Croatian sun is the perfect way to round off our trip. Back in Split, tonight we wrap up our trip with a farewell dinner and drinks to toast the incredible time we’ve had.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Day 9: Visit Krka National Park and Waterfalls

Your Croatian adventures have to come to an end eventually, but with a golden tan and a crew of lifelong friends there are worse ways to finish a trip. Those flying home can make their way to the airport, or keep living the dream and stay on longer in Croatia and the Balkans.&nbsp;
