Sailing Croatian Magical South route

Sailing Croatian Magical South route

Turquoise blue water, oddly shaped rock structures, scores of seagulls flying overhead and patches of unspoiled beaches here and there accessible only by boats – this and more make up this awesome 7 days sailing trip in Croatia.

With no doubt, we will make this trip your best summer vacation ever!

day 1 : Rogoznica - Maslinica, island of ˆolta 18 NM - beautiful bay Maslinica is a perfect place to start your sailing adventure. Once a castle with high towers built as a protection from the pirates and today Martinis-Marchi castle is converted into a luxury accommodation and restaurant with modern marina for boaters visiting the island. In front of the bay is an archipelago of seven small islands where we will stop for a swim before entering a port. We suggest to have a dinner at castle and go for a rest since there are 6 more exciting days to spend! :)

day 2 : Maslinica, island of ˆolta – Komiža, island of Vis 25 NM - nice and long sail to Komiža, beautiful fishermen village on the island of Vis. Hopefuly we will be lucky to meet the family of dolphins that dwell in waters around Vis. Once we arrive in Komiža have a swim and cocktail in beautiful Kamenice beach. For dinner you can choose one of the restaurants in the town (Konoba Bako) or take a taxi to one of the beautiful places inside the island in the middle of the vineyards (Roky*s restaurant and vineri)

day 3 : Komiža, island of Vis – Biševo, Blue cave – Stiniva bay - island Budikovac – Vis town 21 NM - first stop on island of Biševo to visit the famous Blue cave (best time is around noon when the lights and colours are the best). Second stop in Stiniva bay for a swim and lunch on Budikovac islands. After a long day have a dinner in restaurant Pojoda situated in Kut. Vis has kept the old, irresistible Mediterranean charm and life without stress and trouble. You will love it!

day 4 : Vis town – Hvar town (or ACI Marina Palmižana, Pakleni islands) 12 NM - first we will stop in Vinogradišće bay for a swim and lunch. A night we will spend Marina Palmižana on Pakleni islands.

The name Pakleni is word for ‘pine resin’, with which wooden ships were coated to preserve their timbers. This days the islands are boaters mini paradise with a number of beautiful anchorages in clear blue water.
