About this trip
Eight days sailing the Croatian coast from Dubrovnik up to Split, with island stops and swimming breaks along the way.
You live aboard a cruise ship for the week, waking up somewhere new most days rather than packing and unpacking. The route takes in national parkland, pebble beaches and old stone towns, with a fully guided group and an easy pace throughout.
It suits people who want to see a string of islands without organising the logistics themselves, and who are happy with life on board a boat for a week.
What you'll do
- Start in Dubrovnik's old town
- Sail north along the Dalmatian coast toward Split
- Visit Mljet National Park
- Stop at the island of Brac
- Swim at Zlatni Rat Beach
- Easy-paced trip, suited to families and groups of mixed ages
- You're based on the ship for the week, moving location by sailing rather than road transfers

- Captain flexed itinerary mid-trip to dodge bad weather, keeping passengers safe and trip smooth.
- Cabins genuinely tiny on this small ship; not suitable if you need personal space or storage.
