Croatian Adriatic luxury yacht charter itinerary from Dubrovnik to Split

A seven-day route with islands, nature, and iconic ports

Expect saltwater lakes and a 12th-century Benedictine monastery on Mljet, Venetian-era character and Marco Polo’s legacy in Korčula Town, scented vegetation at the Pakleni otoci off Hvar, film-famous Vis with its Blue Cave and Stiniva Beach, and Šolta’s hidden coves finishing in Maslinica with a standout dinner setting.

Day 1

ŠIPAN

Start in the Elaphiti islands, an archipelago near Dubrovnik with three inhabited islands and ten small islands. The setting is all preserved nature and shimmering, crystal-clear sea, the kind of landscape that feels instantly calming.

Explore villages and historic sites on Šipan, the largest island of the archipelago, then return onboard and take in the views of the Elaphiti Archipelago from the comfort of your yacht. For an easy, barefoot-style finish, stop at Bowa Beach Bar before settling in for the night.

Day 2

MLJET

Cruise to Mljet, known as Croatia’s greenest island, defined by lush vegetation and clear sea. Head into scenic Polače Bay and begin exploring Mljet National Park, which covers the western part of the island. The park’s signature sights are the Large and Small Lake, and in the middle of the Big Lake you can visit a 12th-century Benedictine monastery.

Later, make time for the Cave of Odysseus, reachable by small boat or by swimming, then end the day with an unhurried dip in crystal-clear water. Enjoy local cuisine at Stermasi.

Day 3

KORČULA

Sail to Korčula, the largest island of the Dubrovnik area, rich in sights and best experienced through its main town of the same name. Much of its appearance today comes from the 14th to 16th century, when it belonged to the Republic of Venice.

Spend the day discovering the town’s historic layers, then visit the house of Marco Polo, one of the island’s most intriguing stops. If you have the chance, watch Moreska, the medieval knight game and dance that adds theatrical flair to the evening. Local taverns offer dalmatian food.

Day 4

HVAR

Hvar is pure Mediterranean atmosphere, with palms, aloes, pine trees, laurel, rosemary and lavender shaping the scenery. It is the sunniest island in Croatia, boasting not less than 2,724 hours of sunshine per year. Off the southwestern side, the romantic string of Pakleni, a cluster of islands, islets and cliffs with only a few inhabited, is perfect for exploring by boat, with so many different islets and beaches.

When you come ashore, lean into Hvar’s energy, now one of the most popular party destinations in Europe, and do not miss Laganini or Dionis, two very different but equally spectacular restaurants.

Day 5

VIS

Vis is currently among the most sought-after islands, especially since the Mamma Mia sequel was filmed here with Pierce Brosnan and Meryl Streep. Begin with Komiža, a romantic port town and one of the main settlements on the island, then set out for one of the Adriatic’s most famous natural beauty spots, the Blue Cave on the island of Biševo. Round out the day at Stiniva Beach, voted as one of the best hidden beaches in Europe, before returning to the yacht for a slower, quieter evening.

Day 6

ŠOLTA

Plan the morning around Modra Špilja or Blue Cave, one of the most extraordinary caves in the world, thanks to the bright blue glowing phenomenon that happens around noon. After the visit, sail toward Šolta, where untouched nature and the surrounding islands still offer hidden private coves that are rarely found today.

Pause for a swim and snorkeling stop, then continue to Maslinica, the port on the west side of the island. For dinner, reserve the sun terrace of the famous castle and restaurant Martinis Marchi, overlooking the bay.

Day 7

SPLIT

On your way to Split, stop at the Blue Lagoon near Krknjaši islands for a final swim and a simple fresh seafood lunch. In the afternoon, sail into Marina Split and return to your home base.

For the last evening, take a short, dynamic tour of 1,700-year-old Diocletian’s Palace, then enjoy dinner in the city followed by a seaside walk. If you are a nightlife fan, Split night club Central and the bars in the Old Town can satisfy your thrill for fun and party.
