Excursions from Makarska and Split
- Salona -
When Salona was destroyed by an invasion of Avars and Slavs shortly
after A.D. 612, some of the survivors took refuge in Split.
- Trogir - the small town and harbor at the
end of the Kastelanski bay, 27 kilometres from Split. It lies on the
small island between the island of Ciovo and land (draw bridge). Two
millennia of stormy history have been written on this small islet straddling
the isthmus between the gentle hills and fertile plain on the mainland
and the coast of the island Čiovo.
- Dubrovnik - The words of the famous writer
Bernard Shaw: "Those who search for a paradise on earth should
come and see Dubrovnik" speak enough about the beauty of this town.
In the very south of Croatia, this town of stone and light is entered
in the UNESCO list of world heritage. An all-day trip by bus.
-
Brač island - Sailing around the island of Brač (1,5 -
2 hours), one reaches Bol on the souther side of the island.An all-day
trip by ship.

best known and best visited sanctuaries in the Catholic world. A half-day
of all-day excursion by bus. A passport or a corresponding document
is needed.

Split, the administrative, economic and cultural centre of Dalmatia.
An all day or half-day excursion by ship or bus.
- Cruising by night

- The Marjan Park Forest - This natural preserve
is situated on the Split Peninsula. Generations of Split citizens took
care of and enhanced this green oasis, the lungs of the city. The Marjan
Hill is rich with woods, makija (low bush-like shrubs) and Mediterranean
plants, promenades, belvederes, solariums, with a coast and beaches,
trim-tracks and playing grounds.
Excursions from Zadar
- Paklenica - The area of Paklenica, situated between the highest mountain peak
of Velebit (Mount Vaganski, 1757 m) and the Adriatic Sea, was proclaimed
a National Park in 1949. Its unique canyons, called Velika and Mala
Paklenica, and the four hundred meter-high cliffs make it different
from all other national parks. Paklenica’s rich flora and fauna (with
many endemic species, such as griffon vulture), its karstic relief (with
the so-called Manita Pec) and numerous sports activities (such as mountain
climbing, free-climbing, hiking, trekking, horseback riding and bird
watching) are attracting.
-
The Velebit Reserve - Velebit is the most famous mountain
of the Dinaric Alps. On 10 February 1978 this 145 kilometer-long mythical
Croatian mountain, which lies along the Adriatic Sea, was included in
UNESCO's protection and scientific research program titled 'Man and
the Biosphere'. Velebit thus became the first Croatian representative
on the UNESCO's World Heritage List.
- Kornati - The Kornati National Park is one
of the most unique Mediterranean archipelagos, with a unique combination
of islands, islets and reefs situated in central Dalmatia. The part
of the Adriatic surrounding these islands is known as the deepest blue
portion of this sea. The color becomes all the more intense when viewed
in contrast with white and gray karst terrain covering the islands.
With its singularly crystal-clear sea, many sunny days, countless inlets
and small harbors, the Kornati Archipelago has not only become an inevitable
stop on the itinerary of any yachtsman on their tours across the Adriatic,
but also a perfect destination for any modern Robinson Crusoe.
- Plitvice Lakes - The Plitvice Lakes were
proclaimed a national park in 1949, and in 1979 they registered in UNESCO’s
World Heritage List. The park includes beautiful forests with sixteen
large, and many small, lakes which emerge at the source of the Korana
River. They form numerous cascades and beautiful waterfalls as they
flow into one another. The lakes are very attractive to visitors due
to their incredible beauty, rich plant and animal life and numerous
recreational facilities.
- Krka Falls - Along its course through the
karstic Dinaric Alps, the Krka Rivera cut out a beautiful canyon containing
breathtaking waterfalls and rapids, all immersed in rich vegetation.
The highest fall is called Skradinski Buk (46 m). The Krka, as many
yachtsmen already know, is navigable from its mouth to the picturesque
town of Skradin. The islet of Visovac is also worth visiting. Lying
on a place where the Krka flows into a lake, Visovac represents a true
oasis of peace and quiet with its old Franciscan monastery that dates
back to the fifteenth century.

administrative, economic and cultural centre of Dalmatia. An all day
or half-day excursion by ship or bus.
