Introduction

The Istrian Peninsula is renowned for its verdant islands, attractive coastal towns and beautiful azure waters. On this suggested itinerary, embark on an unforgettable luxury yachting experience as you explore this breathtaking region by land and sea. Begin your trip with a relaxing few days spent in Rovinj, before setting sail from Pula on a private chartered catamaran. Travel by sea to several islands off the Istrian coast and Northern Adriatic, where you will enjoy unspoilt beauty, plenty of swimming opportunities and explorations of picturesque fishing villages.

Trip Overview

Depart from Dublin to Pula.

On arrival, you will be privately transferred to one of our partner hotels in Rovinj. Enjoy a three night stay in an ultra-modern hotel just outside the town centre. Explore the luxury facilities including a landscaped pool, scenic garden terrace and luxurious spa.

Take in the sights and sounds of Pula on a privately guided walking tour.

Discover Pula’s Old Town as you wander down narrow streets, passing by medieval and Renaissance buildings. Pay a visit to some of town’s most important heritage landmarks including the preserved amphitheatre and Roman Forum.

Roman Amphitheatre, Pula
It’s time to set sail around the Istrian Peninsula and Adriatic archipelagos.

Privately transfer to the marina and board your luxury catamaran for your seven-night cruise. You will be greeted by your skipper and hostess, who will welcome you onboard and discuss your chosen itinerary for the next week of sailing.

Private Yacht in Split
Experience unspoilt nature at Brijuni National Park.

A scenic string of islands, Brijuni and its notable archaeological-cultural sites are best explored by bike, which is available for hire at the harbour. Sites worth seeing include a 13th-century church built by the Knights Templar and a 2nd-century Byzantine fort.

Brijuni islands
Cruise north of the Adriatic Sea.

Drop anchor at islands such as Susak or Unije. Both destinations are remote, and with very little tourism, they are the perfect spot for some down-time. Swim and paddle in the calm turquoise waters before enjoying an al fresco lunch aboard your private catamaran.

Susak
Enjoy the idyllic island life in Premuda.

A lesser-known Dalmatian island of quaint stone houses and shingle beaches, Premuda is a fantastic spot for diving and snorkelling. Explore the island’s famous underwater cavern, The Cathedral. In the afternoon, take lunch at one of the island’s seafood restaurants.

Snorkelling in Premuda
Experience the perfect beach day on Dugi Otok Island.

Lounge on the secluded shores of Sakarun Beach and swim in crystal-clear waters as far as the eye can see. The forest of pine trees by the beach provide a welcome reprieve from the midday sun. In the evening, enjoy sunset dinner prepared by your private chef.

Dugi Otok island
Set out to explore Silba at your leisure.

Browse the town’s small vegetable and fruit market or dine at the many eateries to be found. Make sure to climb the spiral staircase of Toreta Tower that offers superb panoramic views of Silba and its landscape.

Toreta Tower, Silba
Drop anchor in Losinj, an island with plenty of art culture.

Spend the day exploring the island’s two museums which house various art collections. A particular highlight is the famous Apoxyomenos bronze statue. Alternatively, relax and enjoy a swim in the clear azure waters from your catamaran.

Losinj
It’s time to return to Pula.

Disembark your yacht in Pula and transfer to the international airport for your flight home. Arrive in Dublin.
