Croatia family activity holiday, Korcula

Environment

On our trips we walk , snorkel ,kayak and hike on established paths and tell our guests not to feed, fish, hunt and disturb wildlife we encounter.

On Our Captain's Villa We have installed solar panels on our roof and this system provides hot water in the summer for our guests needs, and in winter it collects energy of sun and turns it into heating. In the house only natural materials are used, stone and wood.

Our Motor Yacht for day excursions is specially designed WITHOUT Propellers, instead our engineers developed water jet system which is safe for sea animals, and our guests to swim safe around the boat.

In our office we minimize printing actions and recycle paper. Most of all, we ensure that negative environmental impacts are drawn to a minimum.

By booking this trip you get to see a whole new perspective of this beautiful part of Croatian Islands by sailing on our Yacht, kayaking and snorkeling on the hidden and best preserved parts of the clearest sea in Europe guests are given the chance to explore in a ways which are least harmful to the environment.

Community

By booking this trip you bring much needed income to the people who are still recovering from the war-torn years, as this was the area severely affected by war, especially Dubrovnik old city.This trip ensures that the local people benefit as much as possible in the form of jobs (we employ local guides and drivers only) and provision of accommodation (we use our own family owned Captain's Villa ). We also use our own transfer services, buy food from the small farms and work on developing responsible waste management by stimulating waste recycle.

By buying local products you are supporting this countries’ economy and helping Croatia to stand on her feet again! We consider it our responsibility to lead efforts to maintain and preserve the integrity of this fledgling sector by petitioning the introduction of tighter controls over the use of the country’s natural resources.

Captain's Villa is our small family run hotel that employs local people and in that way is irreplaceable in the community. Our hosts in the small family restaurant prepare breakfasts , lunches and farewell dinner with our own home grown food and fish from our own pond.
