Marina Agana

Get to know your boat and your new flotilla companions at our base at marina Agana, a charming coastal Marina village of ramshackle Mediterranean houses and quaint waterside restaurants. The port’s convenient location gives you the chance to visit the historic and UNESCO protected harbour town of Trogir (just 15 minutes by taxi) and the ruins of Emperor Diocletian’s Palace at Split (40 minutes) before you depart, or simply relax in the Sunsail lounge or on the nearby beach.

The 2 week flotilla was named after the Croatian island Vis, which can be visited during the Friday and Saturday free sailing days. Those days of the week are the best to go and explore this amazing part of Croatia due to a smaller amount of vessels. The Sunsail expert Lead crew is happy to advise on alternative stops other than Vis if necessary.

*We will do our utmost to accommodate all the stops listed below. However, please be aware that routes may change due to weather conditions or availability.

Get a feel for your new yacht as you enjoy the warm waters and temperate winds of the Adriatic. Drop anchor in the beautiful waters of Uvala Lopud and enjoy lunch at one of the beachside restaurants before sailing on to Ston.

Ston to Korčula town

A day’s sail from Ston, this leg of your bareboat sailing holiday takes just you to the quiet coves, luscious vineyards and sheltered beaches of Korčula. Stop along the way for swimming and snorkelling on the island of Badija, then explore the island’s 14th century Franciscan monastery. Back on your yacht, set sail for the lively town of Korčula. Here you’ll find museums, galleries and fine restaurants within the beautiful cobbled streets and defensive walls of the town. The evenings are filled with smells and tastes of local cuisine, and if you come at the right time,you might get to see the “Moreška”- atraditional dance with swords performed in the main square.

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 recommendable with your yacht or dinghy – that’s why there are numerous water-taxis. Enjoy the busy bay sipping a cocktail in the famous “Laganini beach 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. ”

Hvar town, Hvar

Hvar town on the same-named island with the sunniest hours in a year definitely deserves a visit. Sightseeing includes St. Stephen’s cathedral, the theatre of Hvar from 17th century, the renaissance walls and buildings, and not-to-be-missed fortress Fortica (Spanjola) guarding the town from above. The nightlife in Hvar is the main reason why so many young tourists come in the summer, choosing from a wide range of night clubs, sleeping till noon, and sipping coffee in the afternoon while preparing for an exciting evening.

Vinogradišće to Stari Grad, Hvar

After two days discovering Hvar town, go north to another of Hvar island’s treasures – Stari Grad. The name itself means old town, due to its age, dating back to Greek times. UNESCO saw fit to protect the fields behind Stari Grad, which have been farmed for more than 2000 years and still hide numerous archaeological finds. Most of them are visible in the town’s museum, right next to the house of poet Petar Hektorović with a hidden garden and a fishpond. Take a swim in one of the bays on the way to the town and then pick up a mooring line on the town quay and visit a restaurant, tasting “gregada” – a special fish stew prepared only on Hvar island.
