Croatia: National Parks and islands of Dalmatia

Individual arrival either by car to Trogir or by plane to Split. After checking in on the motor yacht between 2 and 2:30 pm at Trogir your first cruise starts at 3 pm leading you to Rogoznica – a village on a small island which is connected to the mainland by a dam. Here you also spend our first night.

In the morning we enjoy our breakfast during a morning cruise to the seaside city of Vodice. From here we start our bike tour to the island of Murter, connected to the mainland by the lift bridge at Tisno. We cycle over the bridge and along the waterfront, passing by two very old coastal villages, until we reach a small jetty. From here, we enjoy a spectacular cruise through the National Park Kornati, an archipelago in crystal clear water which is known for its rich aquatic life, until we reach the Telašćica Nature Park. In the evening, we take a walk through the park and along the island’s stunning cliffs. A salt lake and a family of donkey also characterise the nature park and make for a wonderful location to spend a quiet night.

After breakfast we start our bike tour from the Telašćica Nature Park, along a virtually traffic-free, panoramic road across the island. During the ride we’re treated to countless unforgettable views of neighbouring islands, breaking through the deep blue sea. We meet the ship in Brbinj and board for a crossing to the city of Zadar, which for centuries was the political, cultural, and spiritual centre of Dalmatia. Once we arrive, there is the opportunity to take part in a walking tour during which you will find out all about this fascinating city while strolling through the winding alleys and the lively old town, characterised by 3,000 years of history. The night is spent in Zadar.

During breakfast the ship crosses the channel of Zadar to the island of Ugljan. Today we have plenty of time to cycle across and explore both of the islands Ugljan and Pašman, connected by a bridge, with their quain villages characterized by stone cottages and fishing vessels. We cycle along the East Coast, always with beautiful views to the mainland and the sea. After our bike tour, we revisit the coastal city of Vodice, this time for the night.

Today is a real highlight! Today’s cycling tour leads along varied roads through remote villages in the Dalmatian island to the beautiful port of Skradin, located at the foot of the Krka Canyon. In the afternoon, we take a small boat to the Krka National Park where we have plenty of time to explore the unique and truly spectacular Krka waterfalls on foot. The night is spent in the postcard town of Skradin.

During breakfast the ship departs Skradin and makes its way down the Krka River back towards the sea and the city of Šibenik . Here we have time to explore the city, home to the Cathedral of St. Jacob, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the most beautiful sacral building on the Adriactic coast. Afterwards, we board the ship and navigate to Primošten where we undertake a bike tour in the afternoon to Rogoznica and back. The night is spent in Primošten .

In the morning our motor yacht takes us to the island of Solta. Olive and fig trees and farmland surround the streets. The spicy smell of rosemary will follow you throughout the whole tour around the silent island until we reach the village Grohote. During mid day our last cruise takes us back to Trogir. Here we have enough time to visit the UNESCO World Heritage old town. Our last dinner gives us time to reminisce on the week that past and to say goodbye to fellow travellers, the crew, and tour guides.

After breakfast disembarkation until 9 am and individual trip home or extended stay in Croatia.
