Small ship cruises along the charming Croatian coastline and islands a the lavishly designed, fully air-conditioned Deluxe Superior vessel.

After embarking in Opatija we spend a glorious week cruising the islands of northern Croatia. Mali Losinj is like a mini Venice and has very good ice cream. Cres is more mountainous than many other local islands and home to the last surviving vulture colony in the Adriatic. We also visit Kornati National Park, a collection of 89 islands surrounded by reefs and Telašćica Nature Park. Zadar is one of the highlights - A medieval walled town, and Krk is another beautiful spot.

For this trip all you will need is a few T-shirts and a swimming costume to spend seven unforgettable days sailing on the northern Adriatic Sea from one island to another. Relax and let the captain and his crew (especially the chef) take care of you.

The imposing and mighty city walls with representative Port and Land gates are from the 16th century AD, and there are numerous palaces and villas of former noble families.

Day 4. Zadar to Kornati

We visit the region of the famous National Park Kornati – rich in fish and cultural and historic remains. Historic remains of old Ilyrian fortress, Roman villas, old Christian church of St. Mary and medieval fortresses and settlements add to the value of these islands. Kornati consists of 140 islands and reefs. Inlets of some islands descend steeply into the sea, a hundred meters deep in places, and dramatically razor sharp. It is truly something remarkable to see. Dinner on board. Overnight in Telašćica Bay on Dugi Otok. Possibility to walk to the white cliffs vertically falling down 90 m into the sea and rising up to 200 m over the sea as well as the salt Lake “Mir”.
