Located in the heart of Dalmatia, Split was a popular retirement destination in the 4th century for Roman emperors, such as Diocletian. Today, it is still popular and renowned for its archaeological, historical and cultural monuments. It’s perfectly placed for sailing north to the uninhabited islands within the Kornati National Park or visiting the stunning waterfalls at Krka National Park.

Mooring charges do apply and can range from between €30 and €90 per night depending on location and the size of yacht. Alternatively there are numerous protected anchorages which are free or cheaper. Read our guide on marinas in Split and our cost saving guide to Croatia.

Day 1: Join your yacht in Split
Day 2: Split – Starigrad (22 nm)
Located on Hvar Island, Starigrad is the oldest town in Croatia, dating back to 384 BC, the same year Aristotel was born. The town has much to offer visitors – a beautiful location, glorious weather, fascinating history and a great base to explore from, by land and sea!
Day 3: Stari Grad – Komiza (29 nm)
Komiza is a typical Mediterranean village on the island of Vis, sitting at the base of 600m high mountain, Hum. Try one of the local culinary specialties such as komiska pogaca or brodetto. In the waters surrounding Vis you will find sunken planes, submarines and warships.
Day 4: Komiza – Lastovo (37 nm)
Delight in Lastovo’s architecture dating back the 15th and 16th centuries. If you happen to visit between The Feast of the Three Kings and Ash Wednesday, you will be in for a treat. The energy of Poklad, or carnival, consumes the island and involves costumes, music and the sword dance.
Day 5: Lastovo – Hvar (30 nm)
For the real Hvar experience, stop at a small inn (“konoba”) to drink real home-made wine and eat freshly picked olives. Today Hvar is considered to be one of the 10 most beautiful islands in the world.

Nicknamed “The Stone Beauty”, Trogir has an abundance of palaces, churches and towers. Take an evening stroll across the bridge to this historic, walled city. Consider having dinner at the charming Restaurant Capo in the heart of old Trogir.
