Our amazing skipper, Mario, expertly planned our dinners and guided us to the best swim spots, providing a seamless journey. From the moment we landed in Split, the adventure began with a complimentary airport transfer to ACI Marina, where our private yacht awaited us.
Our first stop was the charming town of Milna on the island of Brac, where we savored black squid ink risotto while basking in the crystal-clear waters. Brac, the largest of the Dalmatian islands, boasts secluded bays and a relaxing atmosphere, making it the perfect introduction to our island-hopping escapade.
On the island of Vis, we indulged in fresh seafood at Restoran Pojoda, accompanied by delectable local wines. Komiza, another gem on our itinerary, offered the chance to rent scooters and explore the island's winding roads. We ended the day with a mesmerizing sunset and wine tasting at Robinzon Restaurant.
Hvar, the island of sunshine and revelry, was a highlight. We sipped sunset cocktails at the lively Hula Hula Beach Bar. Afterwards, we danced the night away at the iconic Carpe Diem nightclub, immersing ourselves in the island's vibrant nightlife.
Stari Grad, on the other side of Hvar, captivated us with its cobblestone streets and boutique galleries. We enjoyed a wine tasting at a small vineyard, where we savored fresh olive oil, wine and cheese from the UNESCO-protected Stari Grad plain.
Our voyage culminated in Split. We bid farewell to our floating home and indulged in the city's culinary delights, including the mouthwatering local Ćevapi. Exploring Diocletian's Palace and hiking up Marjan Hill for panoramic views of Old Town was the perfect way to bid farewell to our Croatian adventure.
