• Two Topdeck travelers jumping into the clear waters of the Adriatic sea on a sailing trip in Croatia.

Sail & Swim: Croatia Plus

Up to US$150 off selected departures on this trip

Trip Overview

TRIP VIBE = fun in the sun with refreshing swim stops, jaw-dropping scenery and time to hang with your crew. If a traditional Croatian sailing boat was vanilla ice cream, then our Plus boats are the sprinkles on top. Yep, you’ll still get bluer-than-blue swim stops, jaunts into ancient towns and stunning cities, and landscapes so good it actually hurts. But our Plus boats come with a few extra creature comforts. We’re talking bigger en suite rooms – and maybe a hairdryer (minds will be blown). Fresh linen and towel changes. Included hot buffet breakfasts and three-course-freshly-cooked-by-the-crew lunches. Plus, loads of deck space for all those great times with the gang. Been dreaming of cruising the Adriatic like the high-balling-but-budget-busting traveller you are? Meet your perfect match.

Worth noting…
This itinerary is subject to change depending on weather and mooring conditions. Avoid bringing large luggage aboard the boat as there is limited storage space. We recommend a soft backpack or rucksack. Tipping is standard in Croatian culture, and all our Croatian crew work tirelessly over the 5-month summer period to ensure all passengers have the best trip possible. If you're happy with the service the crew provides, we encourage the contribution of a small tip (around €10) for each local crew member. Your Topdeck Sailing Representative will not expect, nor ask for, any tips as per our No Tipping Policy.

Trip itinerary

  1. Split (Croatia) – Hvar (Dalmatian Islands)

    1

    Ready to spend your day horizontal on a sun-soaked deck. Diving head-first into translucent aquamarine water. Exploring the cobbled streets of ancient towns. And eating allll the seafood, stew and sauce-drenched pasta your speedos can handle? We thought so. Meet your awesome AF new crew in Split, then we’ll away anchors and motor to our first swim stop. Next: grub’s up – time to test how stretchy those swimmers really are with our first group lunch. And later, we’ll go for a stroll up to the fortress for some I-N-C-R-E-D-I-B-L-E views. Tonight, gather the gang to swap life stories. By the end of the trip, you’re gonna be buying bestie bracelets together. Facts.

    Leonardo crew were awesome, ship was always clean, and none of our tour group were ill at any point which speaks to the quality of service

    So fun, would recommend that everyone does a sail week at least once in their life. The trip leader and staff really helped make the week so great.

    For the most part the boat was great!
    The only feedback I would give is:
    The aircon in the upper deck cabins - I slept on the top bunk and got very hot & sweaty during the night due to lack of airflow so I ended up sleeping on the floor for a couple of the nights.

    The drinks from the bar on the boat were very weak (bar tender didn’t pour full shots) also, we saw that the shots we ordered were watered down with lemonade and only added a very small amount of vodka/spirit which is a bit disappointing as we still paid normal prices for a shot. Happy hour was only 10% off which isn’t much of of happy hour.

    Other than that I really enjoyed the boat and the crew were lovely!
