Cruise in Croatia from Split to Dubrovnik, with Dalmatian islands, turquoise coves and legendary cities

Sail from island to island off the exciting Dalmatian coast while you work up your sun tan and bathe in Croatian hospitality. Simply awesome and with over 1,185 islands welcoming you, believe-you-me cruising has never been more affordable.

Full steam ahead! Book that cruise hand over fist and allow yourself to be awe-struck. Imagine yourself sipping cocktails at a brilliant beach bar, unveiling the mysteries of a large number of UNESCO World Heritage Sites as well as the film set home of the Kings Landing (Game of Thrones) in Dubrovnik. You drop anchor in pristine bays just for the fun of splashing around with delight. Split, Dubrovnik, Hvar, Bol, Korcula and Mjlet are on your programme. So get your sea legs and sway, rock and bob over the Adriatic as you lavishly spread your sun screen and surrender to the charms of Croatia.

Highlights of this tour through Croatia

Hvar,
the island that feels like summer

With its stone alleyways, lively squares and Mediterranean atmosphere, Hvar charms you from the very first moments. Here, you find everything that makes the Croatian islands so appealing, from golden light and easy-going island life to evenings that linger by the sea.

Dubrovnik,
an arrival that takes your breath away

Seeing Dubrovnik appear from the sea is a true highlight. The city walls, orange rooftops and old town create an unforgettable setting, almost unreal in its beauty. It is the kind of stop that makes you want to slow down, wander and enjoy every viewpoint.

Mljet and the Elaphiti Islands,
Croatia’s natural side

Between the Elaphiti Islands and Mljet National Park, the cruise shifts into a gentler rhythm. You sail past clear waters, quiet coves and unspoilt landscapes. On Mljet, the saltwater lakes and St Mary’s Islet offer a beautiful green escape, far from the crowds.
