Discover the Magic of Croatian Island Cruises

The Dalmatian Coast is renowned for its sun-drenched landscapes and warm hospitality. Additionally, its rich cultural heritage attracts visitors from around the world. Our 7-night Croatia cruises provide the ultimate relaxation experience. Unpack just once and enjoy the journey. Our comfortable cruise ships will transport you from one stunning island to another.

Unlike larger commercial cruise liners, our boutique vessels are much more intimate. They accommodate between 30-40 passengers, creating a friendly atmosphere.

Start your day with a refreshing swim before breakfast. Later, you might join guided tours of historic towns or explore on your own. Alternatively, simply relax on deck with a good book and panoramic Adriatic views.

According to Croatia's Tourism Board, small ship cruises have grown in popularity. In fact, they've seen a 45% increase over the past five years. This growth stems from travelers seeking more authentic and sustainable travel experiences.

The Croatian Islands: A Paradise Waiting to Be Discovered

Croatia boasts more than 1,200 islands. Each island has its own unique character and charm. Consequently, our itineraries include only the most beautiful and interesting destinations.

Hvar: The Lavender Isle

Hvar is known for its vibrant nightlife and fragrant lavender fields. Here, you can enjoy both relaxation and excitement. Visit historic Hvar Town with its impressive Venetian architecture. Above the harbor stands an imposing fortress with spectacular views. Moreover, as noted by Lonely Planet, Hvar receives an average of 2,724 hours of sunshine annually. Therefore, it ranks as one of Europe's sunniest spots.

Korčula: Marco Polo's Birthplace

This fortified medieval town claims to be Marco Polo's birthplace. Wander through narrow streets arranged in a unique fishbone pattern. Furthermore, you can enjoy local wines like Pošip and Grk. The Korčula Tourism Board recommends experiencing the traditional Moreška sword dance. This cultural performance takes place regularly throughout the summer season.

Mljet: The Green Oasis

Nearly one-third of this lush island is a national park. It features two saltwater lakes and a 12th-century Benedictine monastery. According to Mljet National Park authorities, the island hosts several endemic species. Hence, these unique plants and animals can't be found anywhere else in the Adriatic.

Culinary Delights of the Adriatic

As Food & Wine magazine points out, the farm-to-table concept isn't new in Croatia. In contrast, it has been the traditional way of life for centuries.

Many cruises include special dining experiences such as:
- Captain's dinner featuring traditional Dalmatian fare
