Bring a fresh perspective to your Croatian adventure with a panoramic catamaran cruise. You'll sail past Dubrovnik Old Town with the sea breeze in your hair, and break for swimming stops in front of Lokrum island. All-inclusive drinks and unbeatable views are included, too. Marija, one of our expert local guides, says, ‘As you approach Dubrovnik old town, you'll be greeted by the impressive sight of Dubrovnik's ancient walls, encircling the city. Look out for Fort Lovrijenac, too, sitting square on a rocky outcrop.'
You'll jump aboard the catamaran in Gruž, sailing around the edge of the city towards the Old Town where you'll soon spot the stacked terracotta roofs and formidable 16th century stone walls encircling them. Marija adds, ‘The city walls of Dubrovnik, along with the Old Town, have been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. They are recognized for their exceptional fortification system and their importance in European military architecture.'
The fabulous views of the city are a highlight of this excursion, but there's more fun to come – your skipper will drop anchor for an exclusive swimming stop right in front of the Old Town, near the forested island of Lokrum. Fresh salad and fruit will be served while you're anchored up at your next stop in front of a cave. Then circle around the island of Lokrum, a lush haven packed with oak trees and pebbly coves. Enjoy the open bar, relax with music and snap up some splendid views of Dubrovnik. Bliss.
