Meet the creative minds of Croactive Holidays:

Wishing to visit Korcula town and wishing to combine the visit with a sailing trip?

We have great package for you. You board on the fast ferry from Split at 7.45am, arriving to Korcula at 10am. At your arrival there will be a shuttle baiting for you to take you to the boat in the marina, from where you would depart your sailing adventure on a beautiful vintage sailing boat.

The sailing takes place till 2pm. The archipelago of islands spreading in the triangle between Korčula, Orebić i Lumbarda is a wonderful setting for daily sailing even by Dalmatian standards. These pine-covered islets, abundant with little pebble beaches, are a favourite local summer retreat ideal for relaxing picnic, snorkeling or activities such as sailing due to excellent wind conditions in the channel between Korčula island and Pelješac peninsula. Badija hosts a Franciscan monastery and there are lovely pathways around the island where you can meet deers, Vrnik used to be exploited for its stone– the abandoned quarry is still attraction with its remains, Romans left their traces on Majsan…

You will have free time to explore Korcula town till 6pm, when the ferry leaves back to Split.
