Croatian Islands motor yacht cruise

Planet

The food and wine served on board is almost 100% locally produced, supporting many small producers, keeping food miles to a minimum and helping to maintain the traditional small scale farming and fishing that the coast and islands depend on
The management of these vessels are passionate about raising awareness of environmental, economic and sustainable tourism policies in Croatia. They believe the promotion of environmental awareness in the region will have a prolonged and positive impact on the livelihoods of the local people and maintain Croatia as a sustainable tourism destination for future generations.
It is vital sustainable tourism is embraced in Croatia to preserve its natural beauty as well as protect local stakeholders. The managers and crews of these small vessels know that their livelihood is 100% based on this form of tourism, and so it is hugely important to them to maintain their environment in the best way they can.
Anyone who has travelled to Croatia will be able to see how the sea is, and how little rubbish there is in the marine environment, especially when compared to other similar destinations.
By travelling only short distances between ports, these small ship hugely reduce the distance covered when compared with larger vessels. A large cruise ship will typically cruise from Dubrovnik to Split or even Venice in one day (or night). Our vessels typically spend a week cruising between Split and Dubrovnik.

People

Vast floating blocks of flats, otherwise known as cruise ships, arrive direct from Venice and spill their loads onto the Dubrovnik dock where they are met by a huge fleet of buses that whisk them for a couple of hours in the beautiful city. These monoliths cruise past one of Europe's most beautiful coastlines with barely a second glance, and without a thought to the places they are missing.

Our vessel, on the other hand, stops at many small ports and towns where we can fully enjoy some of the very best that Croatia has to offer. The money that we will spend in many of these smaller communities will help to preserve the fantastic heritage of these antique coastline. Our visits to Mljet National Park & The Benedictine monastery on St Mary Isle will help preserve them by putting a little funding directly into their coffers.

Our vessels are captained and crewed by Croatians.
