Flotilla Week

Prepare yourself for the best week of your life on our 7 Day Croatia Flotilla Week. If island hopping between some of the most secluded swim spots, crystal clear coves and Croatian hotspots is your idea of a good time, this tour is for you! The Flotilla Week runs on a Split Return South Route, allowing guests to fly in and out of Split International Airport and explore this fascinating city before and after the tour. The Flotilla Itinerary covers the following destinations: Day 1: Split The adventure begins! Meet your skipper and fellow travellers at 1pm in ACI Marina, Split, for a welcome drink before your 2pm check-in! After a quick briefing, we’ll set sail into the crisp, blue waters of the Adriatic. Day 1: Milna Day 1 will get you comfortable with sailing as we head out into our opening day sail. We’ll head straight for the island of Brac, where you can enjoy a late afternoon swim and ease into the Croatian way of life! This evening enjoy a cocktail as the sun goes down before heading to dinner at a local Croatian restaurant! Day 2: Hvar This morning, we set sail for the Pakleni Island archipelago, taking in the iconically Dalmatian views as we cruise through the 18 picturesque islands that make up the archipelago before arriving in Palmizana (a short water taxi from Hvar Town). This afternoon we'll catch a water taxi to Hvar Town to experience the ‘French Riviera’ of Croatia; home of super yachts, DJ’s and epic beach parties! Climb to Hvar’s 16th-century fortress for stunning views over the harbour and surrounding islands, then unwind at iconic beach club, Hula Hula Bar. After dinner at one of the many waterfront restaurants, mingle with fellow Sail Croatia crew at Nautica Bar! Day 3: Vis Today we set sail for the majestic island of Vis, one of the most outlying islands on the Dalmatian coast. Vis has been used over the centuries as a strategic military port and saw action by the Allied military through WWII against Italy and Germany. It has only recently opened to commercial tourism and still retains a lot of its historical charm, as it is not frequently visited due to its location. Vis is home to the stunning sandy beach of Stoncica Bay, where we’ll stop for a swim before heading into Vis Town. Day 4: Stari Grad This morning we sail towards Stari Grad stopping for a refreshing swim stop along the way. Situated on the northern side of Hvar island, Stari Grad literally means 'Old Town' and it is the oldest town in Croatia. Stari Grad boasts an attractive network of old narrow streets and small squares around the harbour. This evening we will come together to enjoy a delicious onboard dinner prepared by your Skipper. Day 5: Jelsa This morning we’ll sail towards Jelsa, also located on Hvar Island. This afternoon you’ll have the option to visit the UNESCO protected world heritage site of Stari Grad, where you can explore a local farm and experience Croatian wine at its best! Day 6: Makarska This morning we’ll leave Brac behind and make our way down the coast to the breathtaking town of Makarska. We’ll anchor in a secluded bay along the way, where we'll while away the hours at the onboard Punch Party, swimming, sunbathing on the deck and taking it all in with an ice-cold drink in hand. Later in the afternoon, we'll enjoy a short sail into Makarska, a seaside town that nestles under the massive peaks of the Biokovo mountain range, with Mt Jure being the highest seaside peak in the Mediterranean. Once docked you’ll have the option to visit Marineta; a bar serving up delicious cocktails, or head out for freshly caught seafood at one of the many restaurants in this seaside town! Tonight it’s time for the Blue & White Boat Party! Grab your finest linen outfit, boat shoes and chic vibes for a party on the top deck with your fellow shipmates! After the sun sets we’ll head to one of the bars or nightclubs located in Markaska Town. Whether it's cocktails at Bety Bar, or partying in a natural cave next to the sea at Club Deep, the nightlife in Makarska will keep you partying well into the night. Day 7: Split Shake off your Makarska induced hangover with a strong cup of coffee as we set sail towards our final destination, Split. This stunning waterfront city features an abundance of Roman architecture and the spectacular Diocletian's Palace that has to be seen to be believed! If you didn't get the opportunity to experience Split prior to your departure, this is the time to discover the many hidden cafes, bars and restaurants strewn throughout the palace walls before enjoying your final night with new friends! Day 8: Split Rise and shine – at 8:30am you’ll say goodbye to your crew and make your way on to your next adventure.
