Split is the second largest city and the central resort of Croatia, located between the cities of Dubrovnik and Zadar, dividing Dalmatia into two parts.
Here, architectural monuments from the 15th century stand next to modern buildings made of glass and concrete, and the ancient town square is surrounded by modern boutiques. By the way, the historic center of the city is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

In the morning we set off towards the island of Solta – the island of Illyrian legends, ancient fish ponds, rich maritime tradition and virgin nature.
The ruins of ancient Roman buildings in the bay of Nechuyam and Rodachi have been preserved on the island. Benedictine monastery near Stomorsk, the oldest settlement of the island – the village of Grohot with old houses, a small castle of the Marchi family, built in the 18th century, located in Maslinitsa, now it is a luxury boutique hotel Martinis-Marchi.
Visitors will also find many secluded bays, as well as walks through the Mediterranean forest, which will lead you to the highest point, Velaya Guard (237 m). Among the virgin nature, the symbol of this small island is hidden – a sensitive, small owl, whose voice sometimes breaks the silence of the Sholtan night.
We will go to the island of Vis for the night.
Day 3
Vis – Vela Luka
After breakfast we set off for a walk around the island of Vis.
This is a small island, located the most remote from the mainland compared to other islands. There are many beaches on the island for every taste: both equipped, with developed infrastructure, and lonely, wild.
The city has preserved significant historical buildings, and its indisputable dominant is the Franciscan Monastery. In the vicinity of Vis, it is worth visiting the ruins of the ancient Greek colony of Issa, which have survived to this day.
Not far from the city are the ruins of fortifications from the reign of Venice. Of particular interest is the Blue Cave Modra spilja, located on a small islet of Bisevo near Komiž, with a unique illuminated grotto.
After walking a lot, we go to the island of Vela Luka, and immediately we will stay for the night.
Day 4
Vela Luka – Lastovo
Today our trip continues on the island of Korcula in the picturesque town of Velo Luka.
Velaja Luka is the largest town on the island of Korcula. It is located on the western side, in the middle of a nine-kilometer bay, which is a safe port for sailors.
At the very entrance to the bay, on a small island, there is the most beautiful beach of the Adriatic according to the British edition of the Daily Telegraph. A significant part of the island is covered with pine forests.
If you want to enjoy the cultural and historical features of this port city, we highly recommend taking a stroll through the city center. Here you will see the parish church of St. Joseph (Saint Joseph), built in 1848.
The cultural center houses the old Franulovich Repak Palace, where you can visit museums, exhibitions and galleries. The culinary diversity of this city consists not only of fresh fish, but also specialties made from figs and citrus fruits, as well as wine and olives – olives are one of the most important crops in Vela Luka.
We definitely recommend trying it in one of the local restaurants. To the north of the city you will find the cave Vela spilja (Big Grotto), inhabited over 20,000 years ago. Archaeological finds, such as pottery, testify to the early settlement of the region.
During the high season, many visitors are attracted by excellent beaches and hidden coves. It is here that you will find great places for diving and snorkeling.
Vacationers can also enjoy hiking or cycling through the vineyards and olive groves.
Also in summer, on the streets of Vela Luka, the knightly game “moreshka” is held, known since the 15th century, but preserved only in Croatia to this day.
Annually on June 24, a regatta in honor of St. John is held, in July and August there are many concerts and exhibitions, fishing evenings, folklore and music events that you can unexpectedly get on our yacht tour.
Further on, our yacht tour continues south and the next point is the Lastovo archipelago. Overnight.
Day 5
Lastovo – Orebic
Wake up and enjoy the incredible views of the Lastovo archipelago.
It consists of 46 islands, but only Lastovo and Prezhba are inhabited.
The main attractions of the island are the Cathedral of Saints Cosmas and Damian, built in the 14th century. St. Vladius of Sevestia was built in the 12th century, the chapel of St. John was built in 1607.
There are more than 40 churches and chapels on the archipelago, but, unfortunately, many of them, unfortunately, have not survived to this day. In addition to temples, it is worth paying attention to the so-called fumars – an original island attraction that is not found anywhere else.
Fumars are original chimneys, similar in their contours to minarets.
Let’s move on to Orebic. We will stop here for the night.
Day 6
Orebic – Paklinski Islands – Hvar
Today is going to be a very busy day. We start from the point of view of the city of Orebic.
This is a city on the Pelješac peninsula, which is conveniently located at the foot of Mount St. Elijah, the highest point in the region. The Orebič Maritime Museum has a rich collection of ship models, paintings, old maps and navigational equipment.
The main attractions of Orebić are the Franciscan Monastery on Mount St. Elijah, which offers a magnificent view of the sea and nearby islands, and the Church of the Holy Virgin of the Angels from the 15th century with a park of citrus trees.
You can also visit the Church of the Virgin of Carmen or take a wine tour of the old cellars in the vicinity of Orebic.
After walking, we set off for the Paklinsky Islands.
They are a group of limestone islands and rocks in the Adriatic Sea. Located a few hundred meters south of the town of Hvar. In total, the archipelago includes 21 rocks and islands. The chain of islands is about 10 km long, and the highest point is 94 meters.
Sometimes these islands are called “hellish”. They received this interesting name in ancient times, when a special resin was brewed here to impregnate ship wood, and the islands were constantly filled with black smoke, which made them look like hell.
In addition, in Croatian, “tar” is spelled the same as “hellish”, which led to a massive error about the “Hell Islands”. Currently, the islands have become popular among lovers of diving, spearfishing and water sports.
We will go to the island of Hvar for the night.
Day 7
Hvar – Split
New day, new adventures. Exploring the city of Hvar.
It is surrounded by well-preserved massive medieval walls built in the 16th century. Its famous St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the Archbishop’s Palace and the largest central city square in Croatia, called Piac, attract many tourists.
Another attraction of Hvar is the church and fortress of St. Mary, built in the 13th century in the town of Elsa on the northern coast of the island.
It is interesting to visit another historical town of Stary Grad on the northwestern coast of Hvar. Here you can see perfectly preserved ancient Roman bas-reliefs and mosaics, as well as visit the early Christian church of St. John.
