About the trip

This seven-night cruise aboard the MS Il Mare runs along Croatia’s Dalmatian coast, favouring smaller ports and islands that larger liners can't approach. Setting off from Split, the yacht reaches Šibenik for a stroll through its medieval streets and the Gothic cathedral. Inland lies Krka National Park, where multiple tiers of waterfalls spill into turquoise pools, accessible by boat from Skradin.

The cruise continues north through the Kornati archipelago, a scattering of nearly a hundred islands with a sparse, limestone landscape designated as national park. Zadar, with its layered history and coastal promenade featuring a sea organ and Sun Salutation installation, offers a guided tour and time to amble through Romanesque and Renaissance streets. Rogoznica’s cypress-lined harbour and the historic towns of Omis and Trogir, the latter boasting imposing city walls and a cathedral with a Romanesque rose window, complete the route.

Carrying just 38 guests, the yacht’s size allows access to secluded bays for frequent swims and close views of the coastline’s stone hamlets and fruit groves. The itinerary is a measured pace that includes guided walks and stretches of free time ashore or on deck, inviting quiet appreciation rather than a relentless programme.
