Our first stop is Krknjaši Bay on the island of Drvenik Veli, better known as the famous Blue Lagoon. One look at the crystal-clear turquoise sea is enough to understand how it got its name. This peaceful bay, protected by the small islands of Veliki and Mali Krknjaš, is the perfect place to swim, snorkel, and relax away from the crowds.

Enjoy the refreshing morning sea, soak up the sun, and take in the stunning natural surroundings before we continue our journey toward the island of Hvar.

Hvar is one of the most iconic destinations in the Adriatic, known for its stunning location, rich history, and vibrant atmosphere. Walking through its charming streets feels like stepping into a postcard.

You’ll discover landmarks such as St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the historic Hvar Theatre, the City Lodge, and the ancient city walls leading up to Fortica Fortress. The highlight for many visitors is the breathtaking panoramic view from Fortica — the famous image of Hvar that has captured hearts around the world.

Stop 4

The Pakleni Islands are a stunning archipelago of 19 islands and rocky islets just in front of Hvar Town. After exploring the historic streets of Hvar, this is the perfect place to slow down and unwind.
