Split - Split 2 Gulet Charter Route

Split is the biggest city on the Adriatic. Over the years it has been home to many; the Romans, Venetians, Austrians, French, Italians and finally the Yugoslavs before ultimate independence for Croatia. There is much to see and do ranging from the Palace and the Old Town as a whole where many locals still live. There are plenty of bars and restaurants for tourists and locals alike. 

Milna is on the west of the Brac Island. It has the most sheltered harbour on the Island and over the years, that has been something that many sailors have discovered. It was the base used by the Russian Fleet in 1807 and before that the Venetian fleet.

The unspoilt island of Vis is another gem in the Adriatic Sea off the Croatian Coast. It is the furthest away from the Coast and thus largely natural though tourist numbers have started to increase. Few beaches in the whole of Croatia can compete with its beaches while in the south visitors will find lovely bays and plenty of coves. The main town, also Vis, is one of the oldest in Dalmatia. It is located on the northern coast in a sheltered bay. 

Croatia has a large number of offshore islands, the largest of which in the Central Dalmatian Archipelago is Hvar. It totals almost 300 square kilometres and as a place that receives many hours of sunshine during the year, it is extremely popular with the well-heeled. Its main town is also Hvar, known as a lively place with great nightlife, attracting youngsters from all over the world. With attractive beaches, lovely bays and a nearby chain of small islands, Hvar has great appeal. 

Korčula gets a place in history as the birthplace of the legendary explorer, Marco Polo. It is known for its architecture and the layout of streets in the shape of fishbones. The style is a mixture of Renaissance and Gothic with arguably the most impressive landmark the Cathedral of St. Mark whose interior is home to the work of several famous Italian artists. In the modern day, Korčula is famous for its cuisine which uses the best of local fresh produce and seafood to produce some lovely dishes. The local wine such as Rukatac or Plavac compliments these dishes perfectly. Just a short distance away, visitors are certain to enjoy the small islet of Badija with Its stony shoreline and Franciscan Abbey. Similarly, there are other small islets, most covered in dense greenery. 

Lovište is a small town on Pelješac and sits on one of its most beautiful bays. There is a tarmac road connecting it to the other main resorts on the Island; Ston, Viganj and Kućište. The climate in Lovište is lovely with the main bay always having warm waters because of the long hours of sunshine.

Jelsa on the bay in the North Coast of Central Hvar Island is a little town close to the two highest peaks on the Island; St. Nicolas to the West and Hum to the East. Jelsa has two main parts: Vela Banda in the Southern coast and Mala Banda In the North. It has become important for tourism with its oldest hotel, Jadran, over a century old.  The town has been famous for many years for the quality of its red wine.

The oldest town on the Island is Bol and because of its lovely Zlatni Rat beach, it has developed as a summer resort. Zlatni Rat is rightly regarded as one of Croatia’s best beaches.
