Agana food and wine flotilla

Day 1

True 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.

Marina Agana to Stomorska, Šolta

Get a feel for your yacht as you sail through the mouth of the marina and past the islands of Čiovo and Drvenik Veli. You’re headed for the coastal town of Stomorska on the island of Šolta. Šolta is an island of olive groves, vineyards and fisherman, so the food and wine here are excellent.

Wines and vineyard

Agrotourism Kaštelanac

A short distance from Stomorska, Kaštelanac is a charming, family-run farm and vineyard. The winery offers rosé and red wine; both derived from the Dobričić grape. Kaštelanac also produces high quality olive oil, traditional Dalmatian liquors and a selection of homemade cheeses, marinated fish and other local delicacies.

Wine: Dobričić

The Dobričić grape is indigenous to Šolta. A heritage grape, lost during the destruction of the Šolta vineyards during WWII, the revival work being carried out at Kaštelanac is of particular significance to the Croatian wine industry. It comes in a red and rosé variety.

Stomorska, Šolta
Day 3

Stomorska to Vis Town, Vis

Vis is the most westerly of Croatia’s large islands, so the journey from Stomorska to Vis town will take you on a blue water sailing adventure. Let the Adriatic slip by as Vis Island grows larger in the distance, enjoying a cold G&T or a bottle of local wine along the way. Vis is known for its wine and excellent fresh seafood.

Wines and vineyard

Antonio Lipanović vineyard

Located in an old military bunker a short walk from Vis Town, Antonio Lipanović is well established as one of Vis’ leading winemakers. A visit to this winery combines all that Vis has to offer; the ancient wine heritage along with the more recent military history.

Wines: Vugava, Viski Opol, Plavac Mali

The popular Vugava is made from a white grape indigenous to Vis and is often compared to Viogner. An Opol rosé and red Plavac Mali Barrique are also on offer. Sample these accompanied by local pršut (prosciutto), anchovies and cheeses in the cool of the bunker once occupied by Tito.

 

Vis, Croatia
Day 5

Jelsa, Hvar

Leave Milna and sail south, manoeuvring between the islands of Šolta and Brač and heading southeast until you reach the island of Hvar. Cruise along Hvar’s beautiful coastline studded with rolling hills and lush forests until you reach Jelsa, nestled between mountains and tucked in a lovely bay. Fall in love with Jelsa’s old world charm and explore the picturesque waterfront. Jelsa is known for its food, so find a konoba (restaurant) and sample the delicious fresh seafood and local Hvar wines.

Discover Jelsa

The “Zlatni Rat” beach

On the way to Hvar island, you will pass by one of the nicest beaches on the Dalmatian coast. Translated “Golden Horn”, the beach is not sandy, but made of tiniest pebbles. It also moves – the currents and winds make this place unique each day. Anchoring immediately next to the beach is forbidden, but there is a large town quay. Make sure to calculate in the wind that is always present – which is also the reason why there is a great windsurfing centre on the beach. Hikers will also get a fair share of joy – Vidova gora, the highest peak of all Dalmatian islands, rewards a 2-hour hike with a once-in-a-lifetime view.

Suggested lunch spots

The small cove of Smrka features a huge entrance to an abandoned submarine shelter. Use your lunchtime break to anchor for lunch, then explore the tunnel or take a kayak around the cove.

Day 6

Bobovišće, Brac

Sail north from the marina at Jelsa and head west along the hilly coast of Brač Island. Pass the famous Zlatni Rat beach peninsula and follow the coast as it curves north. Manoeuvre through the straights just south of Šolta, and you’ll find the town of Bobovišće tucked into a forked inlet on the island’s western coast. This small, traditional village is a great place to sample authentic Dalmatian cuisine.

Wines and vineyard

Senjković vineyard

The rocky and unforgiving terrain of Brač means that the Plavac Mali grapes cultivated here are different to those found on other Dalmatian islands and this is apparent in the Senjković wines. The rustic wine cellar is full of character, with stacked barrels and old black and white family photos.

Wines: Bosso, Bročko Rić, Spoža, Prošek

Limited production capabilities and the popularity of their wines means this is the only place to sample most of the Senjković wines! Each wine is paired with a delicious homemade canapé for a real taste of Brač.

Bobovišće (Brač), Croatia
Day 7

Bobovišće that Marin Agan

Sail away from the marina at Bobovišće and back into the Split Channel, heading for Marina and our Dalmatian base once more. Take your time and relish the sensation of riding Croatia’s gentle morning breezes back towards the mainland, or head back early to explore Split or Trogir. Make the most of your final day on the flotilla before you head for home.
