In the morning, we set sail towards the island of Vis. With lunch on board and a swim stop along the way, we arrive
in Vis in the early afternoon.
Vis was once an important Yugoslav naval base and was closed to the public for years. Due to this isolation, Vis has a
unique charm that feels like you’re stepping into a faraway time, making it one of our favorite stops. Here, you will
visit a local winery with a fascinating story and location. Their wines are top quality and some of the best in Croatia.
In town, feel free to explore Vis at your leisure. We recommend visiting the Archaeological Museum located in the
old Austrian fort Gospina Batarija (Batteria della Madonna). Dinner on your own in one of Vis Town’s delightful
restaurants.

Our sail begins early in the morning toward the Blue Cave*. This natural phenomenon is one of the highlights of the entire week and you’ll find out for yourself why! (entrances to be paid on the spot – approx. €18-€24)
Hvar is known as a “yachter’s paradise” and as Croatia’s sunniest island. Explore the town’s historical center which includes the Renaissance cathedral with its original tower, and the oldest community theatre in Europe founded in the 17th century. Hike up to the Spanish Fortress which overlooks the harbor for lovely scenic views of the yacht-filled marina and the Pakleni islands. In the evening, Hvar offers many great restaurants, cafes, and bars with many open late into the night.

Optional visit to Blue Cave

*Please note that the Blue Cave is only accessible with small boats through an entrance just 1.5m high so it is unfortunately easily made inaccessible by bad weather and high waves.

Next, we head inland to the countryside for a very special experience: lunch at a local prosciutto estate, where you’ll be welcomed by four generations of a family who have been perfecting the art of traditional Dalmatian curing for decades. Enjoy a homemade feast paired with local wine, heartfelt hospitality, and a deeper connection to the culture of this region. In the afternoon, we return to the coast and rejoin the ship in Šibenik, a charming medieval town with winding stone streets and the UNESCO-listed Cathedral of St. James. You’ll have free time to explore at your own pace, whether that’s discovering a hidden café, browsing local shops, or simply taking in the relaxed rhythm of coastal life. Back on board, we gather one last time for a farewell dinner, a celebratory evening to reflect on the unforgettable moments shared throughout the week. Raise a glass with new friends, enjoy a final taste of the Adriatic, and savor your last night on board under the stars.
