Iconic & Hidden Croatia

Wind Spirit
27 Aug '27Cruise overview
Discover the Croatian coast in-depth from tiny fishing villages to medieval marvels like Dubrovni, with timeless Adriatic beauty surrounding you all the way. This itinerary is ideal for those who enjoy exploring on foot, with an abundance of compact, pedestrian-only old towns, seafront promenades catering to a relaxed coffee culture, and endless alleyways, shops and historic squares to explore. Follow Roman street layouts past Venetian buildings and oleander-cloaked walls, find quiet pebble beaches washed by the Adriatic’s turquoise waters, and head to national parks where waterfalls pour over travertine terraces every shade of green and blue. Check off UNESCO wonders like the history-laden streets of Dubrovnik and Split’s Diocletian’s Palace, savor Dalmatian prosciutto in Sibenik, and cross the Adriatic to Italy’s Puglia region to watch traditional gozzi fishing boats bob in the harbor and marvel at the iconic and whimsical dry-stone huts known as trulli. All this plus two of the most spectacular port approaches you’ll find, sailing directly through the Giudecca Canal to Venice, passing by St. Mark’s Square and the Doge’s Palace (a route exclusively for small ships like ours), and cruising the striking Bay of Kotor as the medieval walled city slowly comes into view.
Itinerary
Venice
Venice is a city unlike any other. No matter how often you’ve seen it in photos and films, the real thing is more dreamlike than you could imagine. With canals where streets should be, water shimmers everywhere. The fabulous palaces and churches reflect centuries of history in what was a wealthy trading center between Europe and the Orient. Getting lost in the narrow alleyways is a quintessential part of exploring Venice, but at some point you’ll almost surely end up in Piazza San Marco, where tourists and locals congregate for a coffee or an aperitif.
