The view from the sun deck of the deep blue, crystal-clear Mediterranean Sea. A shore densely overgrown with holm oaks and pines - your boat takes you from island to island: this is island hopping in southern Dalmatia. Croatia is the purest vacation paradise and this naturally also applies to the south of the country. Along the way, you will discover secluded bays that are perfect for diving directly from your ship into the Mediterranean. Explore the winding paths of the southern Dalmatian coast by bike with your tour guide. You will be treated to delicious, regional dishes and spend the evenings under the open sky, which is illuminated by countless stars. Island hopping in southern Dalmatia is the ideal combination of cycling and a bathing cruise in the warm Mediterranean Sea.
The embarkation takes place between 12.00 and 14.00 in Trogir. You will then meet your tour guide over a welcome drink. Once all guests are on board, the anchor is weighed and the ship sails to Supetar on the island of Brač. The island is the third largest in the Adriatic and is known for its white limestone. Even the Romans quarried the limestone for palaces and amphitheaters. The quarries on the island of Bračč are still in use today. In Supetar, you get on your bike for the first time and cycle to Pučišća, where your captain is already waiting for you again.
In the morning, you leave the island of Brač by boat and hop on to the island of Korčula, also known as the black island due to its dark pine forests. From the small village of Račišće, you cycle along the coast to the town of Korčula and back to the ship in Račišće via Pupnat. Afterwards, you can make yourself comfortable on the sun deck while the ship takes you back to Korčula.
The day starts with a crossing to the island of Mljet. The island is almost completely covered in forest and has a large national park with free-roaming mongooses. You cycle through the vast forests from Sobra via Prožura to Saplunara at the eastern end of the island. After a lunch and swimming break on the beautiful beach, you cycle back to the ship, which then sets course for the Elaphite archipelago. Your island hopping trip in southern Dalmatia continues to the island of Šipan, where you will spend the night in the port of Šipanska Luka.
The archipelago consists of 13 islands and is almost uninhabited. It used to be a popular summer residence for aristocrats, whose magnificent villas still stand today. After a short bike tour on the island of Šipan, you continue by boat to Dubrovnik, where you arrive at lunchtime. You will first get to know the Pearl of the Adriatic on a city tour. Afterwards, you will have enough time to stroll through the alleyways of the UNESCO World Heritage city on your own and discover the countless sights.
The boat takes you from Dubrovnik to Kućište on the Pelješac peninsula. The peninsula is one of the most famous wine-growing regions in Croatia. From here you start your round trip. Cycle along the sea via Viganj to a viewpoint 173 m above sea level. Enjoy the fantastic view of the island of Korčula opposite. Continue to Orebić, where you have enough time for a coffee break. Relax and cruise along the sea back to Kućište, where the crew is already waiting for you with the captain's dinner.
In the morning, sail over the waves to the island of Hvar, the Adriatic island with the most hours of sunshine. In Hvar town, hop on your bike and enjoy the tour through lavender fields and vineyards to Stari Grad. The boat is already waiting for you there with a delicious lunch. Strengthened, you set off on the second cycle tour of the day: via Vrboska you cycle to Jelsa and back to Stari Grad. The oldest settlement on the island is the perfect place to marvel at the romantic atmosphere of the colorful sunset in the sea.
Your boat will take you from Stari Grad to Stomorska on the island of Šolta, one of the smaller Dalmatian islands. It is known for its particularly good olive oil, which makes a delicious souvenir. Your last cycling stage of your island hopping tour in southern Dalmatia ends in Maslinica. After lunch and a break for a swim, your boat sails back to Trogir. In the evening, you can enjoy the impressive atmosphere of the old town during a city tour.
