Dubrovnik and Hvar are well-known tourist destinations. But there are many more places an experienced crew will take you, that are hidden or difficult to reach other than by boat. Discover the hidden gems and classic stops on our Croatian cruises. From Split and Dubrovnik to secluded bays and secret islands, explore the Adriatic beyond the crowds.
Split – The Gateway to the Islands
Most cruisers fly into Split, the vibrant city founded in the remains of a Roman emperors’ palace. Before boarding in Trogir, many guests spend a day or two exploring this majestic city, from its ancient streets, to wine cellars located in the halls of the ancient palace, and charming cafes tucked into timeless winding streets. Split is the perfect introduction to the Croatian coast and a gateway to the beautiful Adriatic islands.
Trogir – The Timeless Port City
Our cruises board in the charming town of Trogir, a mere half an hour drive from downtown Split. This UNESCO World Heritage site feels like stepping back in time, with cobbled streets, renaissance architecture, and cozy cafés along the harbor. Guests often take a stroll to the Kamerlengo Fortress for panoramic views over the Adriatic — the perfect start to a relaxing island-hopping adventure.
Nečujam – Peace and Pristine Waters
Nečujam is a tranquil bay on the island of Šolta, ideal for swimming and kayaking. It’s one of our quieter stops where guests can unwind and enjoy crystal-clear waters without the crowds.
Vis – Authentic Island Life
Vis is slightly off the main tourist route, which is exactly why we love it. From exploring the Blue Cave to tasting fresh seafood, Vis offers a genuine Croatian island experience. Hiking and hidden coves are regular highlights of our cruises.
Milna – Charming Marina Village on Brač Island Life
Milna’s calm waters, local cuisine, and olive oil make it a favorite stop. It’s perfect for a relaxing afternoon, swimming, or exploring the village’s serene harbor.
Stari Grad – Old Town, Modern Charm
Stari Grad on Hvar island offers peaceful streets and a charming harbor. Guests often enjoy wine tasting, exploring Tvrdalj Castle, and soaking up a slower pace compared to bustling Hvar Town.
Hidden Bays on Korčula
There are many small bays on Korčula, such as Gradina and Duba, which are some of our favorite secret spots. Guests anchor here to swim in turquoise waters and enjoy the serenity of a hidden cove.
Hvar & Pakleni Otoci – Sun, Sea, and Serenity
Hvar Town is popular, but the Pakleni Islands are a peaceful escape. Hidden coves and quiet beaches make it perfect for a day trip during our cruises.
Korčula – Culture and Coastline
Korčula blends medieval streets, local wineries, and quiet beaches. We love showing guests this authentic and historical island, rumored to be Marco Polo’s birthplace.
Mljet – Nature’s Paradise
Mljet is perfect for nature lovers. Kayaking, cycling, and hiking around its lush saltwater lakes is a highlight on our cruise itineraries.
Dubrovnik – Iconic Views from the Sea
Even though Dubrovnik is well-known, our cruises often anchor just outside the Old Town. Guests enjoy walking the city walls while also having moments of calm on the water. The city is spectacular from the sea and is often the perfect finale to our Adriatic route.
