This is not a day – by day route description. It is merely an example of the places you can see inside a single week.
You can start the cruise in Trogir
The historic town with 2300 years of continuous urban tradition. It is culture was created under the influence of old Greeks, Romans and Venetians. Trogir has a high concentration of palaces, churches, and towers and in 1997 was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Or you can arrange the embarking procedure and escape from Trogir to one quiet bay nearby.
Croatia is the unique places where you will taste first quality fish at a nice isolated bay, away from crowds, surrounded by crystal turquoise water and quiet bays. You can jump straight from the gulet into the sea, the only sound you will hear are planthoppers, crickets, and swimming dolphins.
As the sunset comes, the gulet takes off and takes you to Vis, Hvar or some other Mediterranean place by your choice or you can stay on anchor in the same or one of a million other bays on your way.
Šolta Island
can be your first stop if you run away from Trogir
Vis Island & Blue cave
One of the most famous natural beauty in Croatia
Pakleni Island in front of Hvar
Hvar Island – old town of Hvar
As city Hvar during the evenings and nights turn into a party and crowdy place our advice is to overnight in Starigrad (Hvar Island) and have a quiet night sleep. Starigrad is just 18 km from city Hvar and you can take a taxi to catch the Hvar and return back to Starigrad.
Starigrad on Hvar Island
Brač Island – Pučišča
Pučišća is the centre of stone extraction and cutting industry. Town symbol is stone, the white Brač stone. Pučišća has a stone-mason’s school which is only of the type in Croatia and continues the stone-mason’s tradition. It is very interesting to visit the school and see what they are made from stone.
Drvenik
This is a just short cruise through Dalmatian Islands, much more you will explore alone if you will become a Croatian gulet cruise traveler!

If this is the route you like then the next steps are:
- determine which gulets (captains) can do this the best,
- determine which gulets (out of this) will fit your budget the best,
- determine how to organize food and drinks on board – you do not wish to spend the maximum amount of money on this, but the optimum amount of money. The difference can be very large.
