After breakfast, cruise towards the island and Mljet National Park (entrance fee not included, to be paid on the spot). Lunch on board. Free time to enjoy the salt lakes in the National Park and enjoy the sun and sea on this tranquil island. The large lake is inside the National park, and in the middle one can visit an old abbey and church, or just use a canoe to roam around the lakes in the National Park. Bicycles can also be hired to cycle around the paths surrounding the lakes. We continue to the island of  Korčula where we arrive in the late afternoon. Join our guided tour of Korčula (included on Premium Superior). Surrounded by ancient walls and fortified bastions Korčula’s old town is very well preserved with its layout and structure dating back to the 13^th century. Overnight in one of the ports of Korčula, depending on availability (the main port in the town centre/ port of Dominče / ferry port (3 km away).

Early in the morning, cruise toward the little island of Biševo to visit the Blue Cave, a magnificent natural phenomenon. The visit depends on sea conditions; entrance tickets are paid on the spot. After the cave, continue toward the island of Vis, once a strategic harbour for the Yugoslav navy and closed to the public for decades. Thanks to that isolation, Vis kept the rare charm of “the Mediterranean as it once was.” Overnight will be in Vis or Komiža (depending on berth availability). Vis sits on the northern side of the island, developed near the remains of ancient Issa, the first urban centre in Croatia. If you feel like exploring, visit the Roman Thermal Baths and the City Museum, or enjoy a walk along the waterfront with views of the villae rusticae scattered along the shore. For travellers who want to see more, renting a car or scooter is an easy way to discover the rest of this surprisingly wild island.

The next destination is the tiny island of Šćedro near the Hvar island. Upon arrival, time to relax and refresh in the clean, crystal blue sea. Departure towards Hvar after lunch, followed by an optional guided tour (included on Premium Superior). Hvar is the longest island in the Adriatic. Visit the magnificent Renaissance cathedral with its original tower and the oldest community theatre in Europe which was founded here in 1612. Hvar offers plenty of restaurants, bars cafes and clubs, open long into the night. Overnight in the Hvar harbour.

Leave Hvar behind and continue cruising towards the island of Brač, heading to the town of Bol, best known for its famous Zlatni rat beach (Golden Horn), a natural phenomenon of distinct shape and form. Directional winds and waves cause the shape of the beach to often change. Enjoy a walk through the pine forest from Bol to the Golden Horn beach or ride the tourist train (with an additional fee). After the lunch onboard, cruise towards Makarska, a town with a Mediterranean feel. During a stroll, discover numerous churches and other architectural and cultural sites. Overnight in port.

Today's destination is Pučišća, a typical Mediterranean village, situated on the northern side of Brač island at the bottom of a deep bay. But before reaching it, stop for swimming and relaxing in some secluded bay along the route. After lunch on board, explore Pučišća, home of the world-famous white stone of Brač. There is a possibility of visiting one of the few stone masonry workshops left in Europe. Overnight in the port with the Captain's dinner onboard (included on Premium Superior & Premium category vessels).

Departure for the last destination, the city of Split, with arrival in the early afternoon.

Both the old town and Diocletian's Palace are under UNESCO protection. People's Square (Narodni Trg) is the heart of the Old Town. Cafes and restaurants spill out into the square and one of the highlights of a visit here is gazing up at the old town clock.
