A Dubrovnik to Split yacht holiday lets you experience the Dalmatian Coast from a fresh perspective, beginning in the south where the medieval walls of Dubrovnik rise above the Adriatic and finishing in Split, where the energy of Diocletian’s Palace still defines the city today.
This route brings together some of the best islands in Croatia, each with its own mix of history, culture and natural beauty. Travelling this coastline by yacht gives you access to hidden coves, quiet bays and small harbours that larger ships cannot reach, making your journey more personal and more relaxed.
Dubrovnik is often the first place travellers think of when they plan a trip to Croatia, and it is easy to see why. If you’re wondering ‘where is Dubrovnik’ in relation to the rest of Croatia, it lies on the far south of the Dalmatian Coast close to the border with Montenegro and Bosnia & Herzegovina. The city is famous for its medieval fortifications, baroque churches and marble streets filled with cafés and restaurants. With time to explore, you’ll find that the list of what to do in Dubrovnik Croatia is endless.
We recommend you book a few days prior to your Yacht Club Croatia yacht holiday to walk the walls, swim at hidden beaches, explore museums or take a cable car up Mount Srđ for sweeping views over the islands. The old town is compact, making it easy to see the must visit places in Dubrovnik such as Rector’s Palace, Stradun and Fort Lovrijenac in a single afternoon.
For those curious about where to eat in Dubrovnik Croatia, the city is home to some of the best seafood restaurants in the country, ranging from traditional konobas to fine dining venues overlooking the harbour.
Spending a week on a yacht cruise exploring the top islands in Croatia makes it easy to explore beyond Dubrovnik. As we sail north, you’ll experience mornings swimming in bays with impossibly clear water, afternoons in island towns where stone houses and narrow lanes tell centuries of stories, and evenings are spent on deck with a glass of local wine as the sun goes down.
On board, your yacht is both base and home with ensuite cabins, attentive crew and spacious decks. It is a style of travel that blends comfort with discovery, giving you a true Croatia islanding hopping yacht experience on the Adriatic.
