A pleasant evening will be spent walking in the great atmosphere of old town, tasting local seafood and wines and enjoying jazz in the Trubadur - the most popular of old town cafes.
Day 2:
Early walk to marina cafe and the local shop for fresh fruit and cool drinks for the day. We will sail out South to old city walls and Lokrum Island nature reserve for sightseeing and a swim. We proceed to Kolocep Island to one of the best local seafood restaurants for lunch and continue to Lopud Island.
Day 3:
After breakfast and morning coffee we sail Nortwest to Mljet Island National Park. There will be stops in Limuni lagoon, Saplunara Beach and Odyssey cave to enjoy swimming and snorkeling. The north part of the island is very green. It has two beautiful salt water lakes and 14 century monastery on a tiny island on one of them. We will explore them on bike and canoe. Dinner under palm trees of a lakeside pub.

After the usual morning coffee we will sail South to Sipan Island. Luka Sipanska on the far end of the island is a charming and romantic fishermen village and bay surrounded with palm trees - favourite mooring place of sailing yachts. Sipan is the largest of Elafiti Islands and bicycles will take us to explore its landscapes, castles, chapels and monasteries.This fishermen and farmer island was often a target of pirates and conquerors in the past. Nowdays it attracts tourists but still resists the attacks of mass tourism.

Lopud, Kolocep and Sipan belong to Elafiti Islands Archipelago - green islands covered by forests, without car traffic, with lots of sunshine and sandy beaches, less than an hour sailing time from Dubrovnik. Each has no more than a couple of hundreds permanent residents who live in stone houses of traditional character. Tall palm trees, parks, gardens and flowers everywhere contribute to easy going life style. Occasionally our yachts or kayaks are escorted by friendly dolphins or tunas that are often seen in the area. The sea is blue, clear, warm and friendly. |
