All aboard, it’s time to start your sailing adventure! Meet your tour leader and group at 1:00pm at Split harbour. We will enjoy our first lunch on board together, before we set sail in the tranquil waters of the Adriatic Sea. There are plenty of stops for swimming on the way to Brac, a small island famous for its stunning beaches.

We will start the day with a swim break at beautiful bay along the Dalmatian coast. Next stop: Makarska which is a popular resort town on the mainland that has the Biokovo mountain range as a stunning backdrop. After a brief orientation walk you have the afternoon free to lie on the beach, take part in water sports like parasailing and jet skiing, go on an optional zipline adventure or just enjoy the many cafes, bars and restaurants that line the 1.5km beach. Let’s get this party started, as tonight we will have a rave in a cave!
As the anchor rises this morning, we wave goodbye to the shores of Makarska and are bound for Hvar. Hvar is home to spectacular beaches, pumping nightlife and draws numerous celebrities. After an orientation walk you can sample some fresh cuisine at the local restaurants and then get ready to dance the night away as we hit the local bars and clubs!

Ahoy shipmates, this morning we are sailing to Lumbarda Bay to go swimming, sunbathing or join in various water-sports and activities.

sea. You can still find their medieval monastery on the island of St. Mary in the middle of Veliko Jezero (Big Lake). Spend the afternoon visiting the lakes, go swimming, kayaking, or cycling around the island.

Another amazing adventure by Travel Talk!
This is the second trip I have booked through Travel Talk and I’m already looking to book a third!!
Our guide, Andre was the best. Instantly he made a connection with all of us where we all felt like family which was fantastic since we were about to be on a boat for 8 days together.
This tour has something for everyone, you can lay low and soak up the sun or take an adventure like rafting or zip lining.
We would start each morning with a causal breakfast and a quick swim as the captain led us across the Adriatic Sea to our next destination. At lunch, we would all meet in the dining area for a delicious 3 course meal and conversation. During dessert, Andre would explain the day’s agenda and options. Shortly after we would arrive at our destination and embark on the day. At night, we would enjoy family dinner together at one of Andre’s suggestions which were always spot on & delicious!!! Then we would return to the boat for showers & “Happiness” hours before we would take on the nightlife!
I can’t not say enough about this trip, it was the perfect summer get away!!!
Each location had its own uniqueness, I honestly can not chose just one. Every day was something new and exciting!
Andre and the crew were absolutely the best!
Thank you Travel Talk for another fabulous vacation!!!
