Hvar - The sunniest island

The island of Hvar is the queen of the Croatian Dalmatian islands popular among yacht lovers and A-list celebrities. It has been famous since the beginning because of its important strategic and nautical position, various richness in historical periods, the culture, and natural monuments.

Hvar

Daily tours and night fun

For daily exploring of the majestic Hvar island, we'll hook you up with the most knowledgeable tour guide lady on the island. She is a living Hvar encyclopedia and at the end of your tour, she'll even sing for you. 

And for night enjoyments, we have direct connections with the owners of the best bars and clubs. Those are Carpe Diem, Hula Hula, and Laganini. 

Gariful dinner

Restaurant Gariful

We know the owner of the most popular restaurant on Hvar called Gariful and we can save you some spots for a fancy dinner there. You'll eat fish that has been caught a couple of hours before being served on your plate, and taste some of the best local wines out there. 

Vis - The absolute hidden gem

The island of Vis is one the most precious islands in Dalmatia that still offers many things to do while you are yachting here. This place was relatively untouched by massive tourism due to its distant position from the coast, which makes this place even more attractive for those looking for privacy. It is truly lost and found treasure.

Vis Stiniva

Stiniva beach and Military tour

Knowing the local people on the island Vis, we can anchor the yacht close to the Stiniva beach, which is one of the most beautiful beaches in Europe, and take you directly to the shore with a tender boat. 

If you don't prefer spending your day on a beach, we'll organize a military tour of the island with Land Rover jeeps, where you will see World War II rocket bases, military tunnels, abandoned warehouses, Tito's cave, and Hum, the islands peak point for catching the panoramic sunset. 

Blue cave

The Blue Cave

For another unique experience, we'll take you to the Blue Cave, where you will enter one of the rare world phenomenons with a small boat. It is located really close to Vis, on a small islet called Biševo. 

Korčula - The birthplace of Marco Polo

Korčula enchants the senses with its timeless beauty and casts an everlasting spell of wonder on those who choose this place for yachting. It is favorite among yacht lovers who love to escape the crowds and enjoy in privacy and beauty this island offers.

Kanavelić

Kanavelić tower and Marco Polo tour

Korčula town is often called ‘Little Dubrovnik’ because of its ancient walls, and, we can make it possible that you have a lunch or dinner in the Kavavelić tower, where top chefs will be preparing fresh seafood and you'll be served with a panoramic view. This is only for VIP groups of up to 20 people.

And for another different type of experience, we know the best tour guide lady on the island who will guide you through the streets of Korčula, with a Marco Polo themed storytelling. We promise that you never experienced something like that before. Our guests absolutely love her.

Moro beach bar

Secluded beach bar

Close to Korčula there is a small, barely visible islet Stupe, that has only one thing on the whole islet. It's called Moro beach bar. That's a place you can not easily approach or book if you don't know the owners. And there you can enjoy oysters, rustical champagne, and an extraordinary level of privacy, with your yacht anchored aside. 

Brač - Island with the most beautiful beach

Brač is the largest island in central Dalmatia, with several towns, sleepy villages and a dramatic Mediterranean landscape of cliffs, inky waters and pine forests. It takes about an hour from Split to reach this beautiful island scattered with rocks, vineyards, olive, fig, almond, and sour-cherry orchards.
