Detailed route description

Saturday

Boarding in Trogir between 11:30 and 13:00. Shortly after we sail towards Rogoznica a picturesque fishermen's place that lies on a small islet and is connected to land by a single narrow embankment. On the way there we anchor in a bay to take a first swimming break in the Adriatic. In the evening guests who arrive later by plane and which will be taken in Rogoznica.

Sunday

We leave land and sail towards the islands of Sibenik archipelagoin order to swim. After several hours of enjoying in sun and sea we lift our anchor and direct our course toward the island of Kaprije or Zirje. We stay the night in one of those two quiet fishermen's towns.

Monday

"On the last day of creation God decided to crown his deed and thus created Kornati out of tears, stars and breath", wrote Irish writer George Bernard Shaw. Wonderful nature, numerous small and large islands (it is said: an island for every day of a year), beautiful sea, all this makes Kornati a unique paradise. They are the largest island group in the Adriatic, counting 147 islands, islets and rocks with total surface of 69 km2, scattered on an area of 230 km2. They stretch over a length of 35 km and width of about 13 km between Long Island on Northwest, Zirje and Pasman on Southeast and Vrgade and Murter on North and Northeast. We will sail Kornati along its entire length and stop in one bay on its northern part to swim. We are staying the night in Sala on Long Island.

Tuesday

After already usual swimming break on Ugljan or Long Island we head to Zadar, cultural and administrative center of Northern Dalmatia. Old town with numerous cultural monuments lies on a peninsula surrounded by city walls. Use your time after dinner to walk around town or enjoy sounds of unique sea organs whose melodies are created by waves. We stay the night in Zadar port.

Wednesday

We head in direction of South along Ugljan and Pasman island and with a view on Kornate in the distance we arrive in Vodice archipelago. There we anchor in one secluded bay and use our time to freshen up in crystal clear sea. We stay the night in Vodice, a lively tourist destination with numerous cafes and taverns.

Thursday

Several miles further South, we leave the Adriatic and enter the estuary of river Krka. Our next stop is Sibenik. Town Sibenik was first mentioned in 1006. It is the youngest of cities on the coast but at the same time the oldest Croatian town. It was not founded by neither Greeks nor Romans nor Byzantium but Croats. The best known building in the old town center is St. Jacob cathedral, most significant Renaissance monument in Croatia, which resembles a fortress. After walking around town we sail further down the river Krka. We anchor and Skradin, not far from well known Krka's waterfalls. Ships sail here that can get you to national park. If you have the possibility to visit "Skradinski buk", best known of the waterfalls, where Krka falls into 17 waterfalls in one fall of 800 m, and one hundred meters of wide cascades from the height of 45,7 m. Be sure not to forget your swimming stuff because swimming in crystal clear Krka just beneath the waterfalls is a unique event. (Entrance the National Park which includes a boat ride costs 8 €). We return back to the Adriatic, sail into Zlarin, fishermen's place on the same-named island in which port we stay the night.

Friday

We leave Zlarin and return to the starting port of our journey, Trogir. On the way we anchor, of course, to have one more swim in the sea. Early in the evening we arrive to Trogir, town protected by UNESCO which is also called "town-museum". It is a beautiful experience to walk through the labyrinth of streets in the afternoon or evening, admire the walls, defending towers, churches, frescoes and ceilings or just here and there take a glimpse of the old yards. Overnight stay in Trogir.

Saturday

Departure after breakfast around 9 am.
