Discover Brač island
Suggested lunch spots
Golden Horn, or Golden Cape, is probably the best known beach in Croatia. It is found next to Bol town, on the way from Vrboska it will be visible on the starboard side. The beach gets a couple of centimeters longer every year, and due to currents and winds around -it never looks the same. Explore the numerous bars, do some snorkelling around near-by caves, or rent a bike or scooter and go to peak Vidova Gora – the highest tip of all Dalmatian islands, guaranteeing an amazing view.
Bobovišća is Marina Agana
It’s a short journey from Bobovišća back to our base at Marina where you need to arrive no later than 5 pm, so take the time to enjoy your final day and do a little more exploring. Visit Krknjaši Lagoon for a long lunch break in picturesque surroundings, or stop at the ancient fortified town of Trogir on your way back to marina Agana. With so much to see along the Dalmatian Coast, you’ll want to make the most of any hours you have left.

Explore the blue cave
Komiža town is perfect starting point to visit the Blue Cave, 6 miles away on tiny Biševo island. The cave is under protection, meaning one cannot enter it with their own dinghy, but has to be taken in for a 20-minute tour. That can either be arranged directly from Komiža with a speedboat, or after mooring in front of the cave entrance, when the tour guide picks you up on their boat.
The light bends in perfect angles to make the cave illuminate blue, and is best suited for a visit when sun is at its highest point.
Vis to Pasadur, Lastovo Nature Park
Your next port of call is Lastovo nature park, one of Croatia’s best kept secrets, where time stands still and you feel like you are alone in the world. Pasadur is a little town on Lastovo’s west shore, connected to neighbouring Prežba island with a charming stone bridge. Mooring with lazy lines is possible in front of hotel Solitudo- the only hotel on the island. While there are mooring buoys in the nearby Veji Lago bay, remember that anchoring in this protected park is forbidden. Take a long, romantic walk along the promenade and adjust to island time, taking things slow.

Korčula to Vinogradišće bay, Pakleni archipelago
Start early to cover 35 miles getting to Vinogradišće bay. On the way are numerous bays along the north side of Korčula island where you can drop anchor and rest, swimming, kayaking or paddling along the lonesome coves. Vinogradišće bay is very popular, full of high-end restaurants, great cocktail beach clubs and mooring buoys to leave your yacht. Island-hopping between tiny islets of Pakleni archipelago and Hvar town isn’t reccommendable with your yacht or dinghy – that’s why there are numerous water-taxis. Enjoy the busy bay sipping a cocktail in the famous “”Laganini neach bar””, have a walk among the botanical plants of St. Clement island and hit the lively night scene in a restaurant or club. Considering the long sail you had, the bustling night scene, and the proximity of Hvar town just waiting to be explored, we suggest spending two days in this bay to experience all it has to offer. ”
