EXTRAORDINARY CRUISE ON AN EXTRAORDINARY YACHT
SAILING – ENJOYING – BATHING – CHILLING
DATE: 15.06.2024 BIS 22.06.2024
This unique sailing trip will probably be the most beautiful early summer trip in Croatia in 2024. In my experience, this time of year is the most beautiful time in the Adriatic, it is already warm in summer, the days are very long and the places and bays are not yet overcrowded due to the low season.
We will sail with a luxurious Dufour 520 from UTH, which offers much more comfort than most yachts. one week for this beautiful route between Primošten and Dubrovnik means that the daily stages are rather short.
We sail no more than 5-6 hours per day. In early summer the winds are not very strong, which is why we always sail with a gennaker when the wind direction is suitable. With this large yacht, we can easily reach distances of 50 nm per day. At lunchtime we have enough time to anchor in a sunny turquoise bay, swim and have an aperitif.
To stave off hunger, we eat something we’ve prepared ourselves from the fresh produce at the market. Or we can just moor at the pier and enjoy an ice cream or a café on the promenade.
A visit to the “Stina Vinarija Bol” winery on Brac is also planned. The ports of Hvar, Korcula and Starigrad will be visited in both directions. In order to have enough time ashore, we will moor in these beautiful places in the afternoon and spend the night there, and on the other days we will head for an anchorage bay or a small picturesque harbor in a fishing village in the evening. When we are at anchor, we will of course go swimming or snorkeling in the warm, crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic or paddle on the SUP.
Then we enjoy the idyllic sunset over the Adriatic at a jetty. Afterwards, as the title suggests, we go to the most rustic and secluded konobas, away from mass tourism, where we enjoy the Dalmatian specialties of the local cuisine.
