Croatia’s Dalmatian coastline is dotted with more than a thousand islands. On our classic ‘Oldtimer’ cruiser we set off from historic Dubrovnik to explore several of these beautiful islands, including Mljet and Korcula. We cruise from island to island, landing on some to cycle along their quiet roads. In the evenings we enjoy delicious Croatian food, either on board or in traditional seafront restaurants.
