With our luxury catamaran as home base, we’re free to roam Croatia’s sunny Dalmatian coast and hop between its most beautiful islands. Smooth coastal roads, quiet island lanes, and sunlit viewpoints guide our journey through Dalmatia’s most beautiful islands—each one offering its own rhythm, scenery, and stories. Here are some of the places we’ll visit together.
-
- Trogir — This tiny central Dalmatian town charms instantly with its old-world atmosphere and UNESCO-listed historic center. In your free time, wander Romanesque churches like St. Lawrence Cathedral, stroll the lively waterfront, or climb the Kamerlengo Fortress for views over the maze of medieval streets and the sparkling harbor.
- Brač — Stretching over 24 miles, Brač is known for Bol, its cliff-backed villages, and the iconic Zlatni Rat Beach. Ride toward Vidova Gora for sweeping views of the golden shoreline, then visit the remarkable Blaca Hermitage—an entire stone monastery carved into the cliffs by Glagolitic monks in the 1500s.
- Hvar — The sunniest island in the Adriatic blends ancient Greek heritage with lavender fields, secluded coves, and timeless stone towns. Cycle toward Stari Grad, one of Europe’s oldest settlements, sip wine in cliffside Sveta Nedjelja, and wrap up the day with a beach cocktail or a taste of Hvar’s vibrant nightlife.
- Vis — Closed to the public for decades due to its military past, Vis now welcomes travelers with untouched beauty and stories hidden in its labyrinth of tunnels, bunkers, and submarine shelters. Ride through the town of Vis, learn about Komiža’s deep fishing traditions, and admire views of the tiny volcanic islet Jabuka on the horizon.
- Omiš, Čiovo, or Korčula — Omiš sits where the Cetina River meets the sea, offering dramatic canyon scenery and a paradise of outdoor sports. Prefer a different feel? Čiovo brings gentle coastal roads and quiet bays, while Korčula offers vineyard-lined routes, old-town charm, and sweeping Adriatic views. The exact stop is chosen together once on board.

The best thing about this cycling & sailing tour is that it’s a whole lot easier with trusty e-bikes! Your guides get that this is your vacation and you should enjoy it without overdoing it. All that’s required is that you know how to ride a bike, and everything else can be fully customized. Still, keep in mind that you’ll be cycling consistently for a week.
Most of the days you will cross 10-30 miles (15-50 km) with ascents up to 1,500 ft (500 m). But with two experienced guides onboard, you can explore different types and levels of biking trails in the area. Split into two groups and mix & match the routes according to your skill and preference!
If you want to take a day or two off, feel free to stay on the catamaran or go on another outdoor adventure like hiking or kayaking (not included in the cost of the trip).
