Description

A breathtaking cruise from Opatija to Split along the stunning and less visited North Adriatic coastline and islands. The intermingling of various influences in the past has crystallized Croatia’s spectacular scenery with small coves where bathers drift on the crystal-blue waters as well as historical towns and cities. You will cruise in the mornings, with a swim stop somewhere en route in a secluded bay, and, after lunch on board, you will arrive at your destination for the evening, and what destinations they are. Split is a great destination in itself, and preferred by many to Dubrovnik. Kornati and Brijuni National Parks further north provide a slower pace, but buzzing Zadar and Opatija give a true Croatian flavour.
