Split – a town both UNESCO and locals consider the most beautiful in the world
Once a quiet stopover, it’s now a vibrant hub for land and sea travelers. Explore the awe-inspiring 4th-century Diocletian’s Palace, a stunning Roman emperor’s residence. Wander charming streets or escape to Marjan Hill’s nature trails and pebble beaches. Sun seekers love lively Bačvice and Firule beaches. Foodies and night owls are catered to with a variety of restaurants, trattorias, and clubs. Avoid July/August crowds – September’s warmth is our favorite time to visit.
Hvar and Pakleni islands: A 5-star yachting affair
Beyond glamorous Hvar’s nightlife, explore the historic core – climb Fortica fortress, wander cobbled streets, visit the monastery & Europe’s oldest theater. Soak in the vibrant port scene & charming promenade. While Hvar throbs with parties (mini-Saint Tropez!), those seeking tranquility can savor coffee, wine, or meals by renowned chefs. Luxury yachts dot the scene, a testament to Hvar’s allure.
Nearby Pakleni islands offer a paradise for all: peace for Robinsons, parties for revelers, and gourmet experiences for foodies. This 21-island archipelago feels connected to Hvar by an umbilical cord. Anchor at ACI Marina Palmižana, one of the Adriatic’s most beautiful marinas, and explore the charming coves scattered across these idyllic islands.
Vis: Mamma Mia, what an island
The island of Vis is beloved among locals and international yachts alike. Made famous by “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again”, filmed on its shores, the island has in 2019 made it to the UNESCO geo-parks list.
Stunning island Vis offers 2-3 days of exploration. Spend a day in Vis old town or the picturesque Komiža, or sneak into one of the many hidden coves dotted alongside its northern and southern shores. Short on time? Stiniva cove’s beaches & Budikovac island are stunning. Don’t miss the Blue Cave (weather permitting) for an unforgettable experience.
