    Today is the perfect day to acclimatise to your holiday. In the morning we enjoy breakfast and a cruise towards the Island of Sipan with the possibility along the way for a swim directly from the boat. Šipan is the largest of the Elaphiti Islands, yet still humble in size. What it lacks in size, it makes up for in charm. The perfect place for our first bike tour and to get used to riding in a group. After a lot of firsts, the evening can be enjoyed in the peaceful island atmosphere. The night is spent on Sipan.

  • Day 3

    Island Mljet – Island Korčula (aprx. 20 mi./33 km)

    A short morning cruise brings us to Sobra on the green Island of Mljet. Green because 70 % of its landmass is covered by woodland making it the most forested island in the Mediterranean region. Homer mentioned this lovely island in his epic poem “Odyssey”. He made it a home for the Nymph Calypso and the legendary Greek king Odysseus, who could not resist Calypso and stayed on Mljet for seven years. Our tour stretches almost the entire length of the Island from Sobra to Pomena where our ship awaits. We hop on board and enjoy a relaxing cruise to the picturesque town of Korčula with its fishbone alleyways. This small town competes with Venice for the honor of being the birthplace of the famous explorer Marco Polo. It is here that we spend the night and enjoy a guided city tour packed with fascinating anecdotes concerning the history of the city and the island.

Due to its strategic location it was a military zone until 1995 and prohibited for foreign tourists. In the afternoon we have the opportunity to explore the lovely island by bicycle.

Cycling on island

We have been on several biking/ boating tours, and this was by far the best! I recommend the Pearls of Dalmatia. We filled all 14 cabins with our friends, which made it more special. The best part of the trip, other than the stunningly beautiful southern Croatian islands, was the crew. The ships crew and guides could not have been better. They were all friendly, informative, very customer- oriented, but mostly they were FUN! I recommend going Dubrovnik to Split, south to north, as well. Islands are definitely challenging so consider ebikes. Incredible views, food, biking, swimming, tours of history and mostly… Fun!
