Historic Old Towns, Breathtaking Waterfalls and Pleasing Islands 

On the first day of our journey, the tour will lead us from Biograd na Moru to Jazera. Biograd na Moru is a popular resort in the southernmost part of the Zadar region, home to many bays and beaches lining its coast. The most popular attraction here is the historic old town and wonderful waterfront promenade. We will now head to Galesnjak Island. This island is a masterpiece of nature. It is the only island in the world that is formed in an almost perfect heart shape, never changing its contours. Referred to by many as Lovers' Island or Love Island, it is surrounded by pebble beaches, rocky areas, and coves with breathtaking beauty. This island is completely uninhabited and protected by the state, so there are no public structures or amenities. Moving on, we will now visit Murter Island. It is a wonderful location, home to the four towns of Murter, Betina, Tisno, and Jezera. This destination showcases an abundance of beauty in its clear waters, old olive trees, impressive climate, pine-scented forests, and hidden, secluded coves. There are many small, spectacular beaches and bays to explore all around the island, with Slanica, Podvrske, and Cigrada Beach being the most popular. Several attractions can be discovered on the island, including various historic sites dating back to ancient Roman times, the Church of St. Francis of Assisi, and the fascinating Betina Museum of Wooden Shipbuilding. Throughout its history, Murter has evolved while continuing to maintain its values and standards of culture, traditions, and spirituality. Narrow stone streets and stone walls covered with ivy plants have preserved the historic feel. Our final stop on today's tour is Murter Islands, Jezera. This town is a gem, boasting a crystal-clear sea, traditional customs, intriguing stone-paved streets, and a rich history dating back to the antiquity period. For five years in a row this wonderful town has received the Croatian Tourist Board’s Blue Flower, the country’s most prestigious urban landscaping award.&nbsp;

Today's tour will take us from Jazera to Skardin. The small town of Skradin is situated in a protected bay on the Krka River, where freshwater mixes with salt water from the Adriatic Sea. The most popular attractions here for tour members to explore are the picturesque harbor and the enchanting old town. Skradin is also referred to as the gateway to Krka Waterfalls National Park, which showcases a wonderful natural landscape and breathtaking waterfalls. The final location on today's tour is Skradinski Buk, which is home to the seventh and longest travertine barrier on the Krka River. This location is truly one of the most unusual and beautiful landscapes in Krka National Park. Here, tour members can witness Skradinski Buk's 800-meter-long cascade, which descends almost 46 meters before meeting the lower lake. Upon arrival, a 1900-meter educational walking trail leads visitors around the breathtaking waterfalls. The former watermills have been converted into craft workshops, souvenir stores, exhibit spaces where ethnographic collections can be enjoyed, along with restaurants. The remnants of the Krka hydroelectric plant from 1895 can also still be seen; it was the first to provide electrical energy to light up a city. This is a protected area, so please be aware that swimming here is not allowed.

Today, we will sail from Skardin to Kaprije Island. Kaprije Island is a hidden gem in the Adriatic, named after the caper bud, a Mediterranean wild plant whose aromatic buds are a fundamental ingredient in the Mediterranean diet. The island is known by many as the land of the farmers, where visitors can admire 23 kilometers of dry stone walls while hiking and exploring this beautiful area. This charming destination is a car-free zone and home to only one village, also named Kaprije, which lies in the bay of St. Peter on the north-western part of the island. Here, tour members can find several amenities, such as a doctor's office, a post office, a cash machine, shops, and a few restaurants. The most spectacular part of this village is located on a hill with wonderful old houses, the local church of St. Peter, named after the patron saint of Kaprije, and breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea. All over the island, there are many magical bays and small coves to discover, such as Remetic Cove, Medos Cove, Mala, and Velika Nozdra coves, which are hotspots for boaters and tourists during the summer months. The whole island is covered in tiny paths made by the locals when walking to their farms, making it an interesting place to explore. The island is believed to have first been inhabited in the 15th century, when it was an oasis for the people of Sibenik, who needed shelter from Ottoman incursions, and today it still provides a relaxing paradise away from busy life for all who visit.

We will now travel from Kaprije Island to Piskera Island. Today, tour members can enjoy a day of complete relaxation in a tranquil paradise. Piskera Island is a small, uninhabited island that lies in the Adriatic Sea. There are a few houses here, although they are occupied by fishermen only during the summer months. It is classed as one of the Kornati Islands, with an area of 2.66 kilometers squared and a 10.64-kilometre-long coastline. This natural island is unspoiled by tourism; it has a unique beauty that draws people back time and time again. The island's landscape is mostly rocky and covered with a thin layer of grass. There were once many trees here, but they were destroyed by fires started by shepherds to increase the grazing area for their animals. Here, tour members can find one small restaurant, a marina, and numerous walking paths along the coast to explore.

Today's adventure will guide us from Piskera Island to Sali. Kornati National Park is our first stop, which is a collection of approximately 89 islands and islets, creating a labyrinth that is perfect for sailing. The tour members will witness a nautical paradise with breathtaking scenery, nature, and beauty. There are no harbors within the vicinity because it is a national park and the islands are not populated, so there was never a demand to build one. However, there are many bays where the sea is so pristine that the sea bed can be seen clearly. One of the most popular sights in this area are the vertical Krune cliffs that face the open sea. Many adrenaline sport lovers visit them to partake in cliff jumping. We will now visit Dugi Otok, which is known for its relaxing ambiance, vineyards, and orchards. Here, the spectacular Saharun Beach can also be found. Often referred to as having Caribbean characteristics, this beach has a breathtaking combination of white sand and crystal-clear waters, surrounded by scented pine trees, making it perfect for those looking for a chilled-out morning. Continuing on with our tour, we will visit Dugi Otok's Sali. This lovely area is the largest settlement on the island, which stretches over two bays. It is located on the north-eastern coast of the island and is very well established in terms of tourism due to its excursions, sailing, and sports amenities. Tour members can find facilities such as a doctor's office, a post office, a cash machine, several shops, and a reading room where visitors can borrow a wide variety of books in several different languages. Showcasing its impressive thousand-year-old olive groves, this region represents a unique ecological area. As many of the locals are still diligent olive growers, Saljsko Polje is an important horticultural facility on the coast that has been declared a botanic reserve. The cultural heritage of Sali can be seen within sacred buildings such as the parish church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which is home to a wooden altar from the 17th century and inscriptions written in Glagolitic, as well as the churches of St. Roch and St. Nicholas.

Today's journey will lead us from Sali to Biograd na Moru. Our first stop will be Pasman Island, located south of Zadar. The island is known for its rapid stream, which changes course every 6 hours, making the sea one of the clearest in the Adriatic. All over the island, there are sandy beaches to enjoy and places to visit. In the Illyric town of Gradin, historical fortifications and the statue of St. Michael from the 12th century can be seen. Within Tkon, on the beautiful hill of Cokovac, lies the Benedictine monastery of St. Cosmas and Damien, dating back to the year 1125. In the small town of Kraj, there is a Franciscan monastery that was built in 1390. For tour participants who enjoy the outdoors, walking through the wonderful pinewoods, admiring vineyards and olive groves, and enjoying time on one of the numerous beautiful beaches are also favored activities. We will now visit Vrgada Island, which is an oasis of pristine nature, fresh air, and clear sea waters, ideal for a relaxing afternoon. Some of the most popular sights on the island include the 9th-century Church of St. Andrew, the remains of a Byzantine fortress from the 6th century, the ruins of the Damiani Castle dating back to the 17th century, and the 16th-century parish Church of the Holy Trinity. There is also one of the most beautiful beaches on the Adriatic located here, the sandy beach of Podbrizi, also referred to as the Golden or Red Beach. The final destination on today's tour is Biograd na Moru. The most popular location here is the historical old town, and along with the harbor and the promenade, it forms a fantastic tourist center. While wandering through the small streets, there are many beautiful squares and attractions to discover, along with charming cafes overlooking the sea and restaurants that specialize in tasty Dalmatian cuisine.

On the final day of the tour, we will explore Biograd na Moru in more detail. Biograd na Moru is an extremely popular holiday destination and the most indented part of the Croatian coast, which is perfect for Blue Cruise tours. Along with its fabulous marina, there are many wonderful beaches to enjoy. The most popular of which are the sandy beaches of Soline and Crvena Luka and the pebbly beaches of Drazica and Bosana. For those of you who wish to keep exploring, some attractions that are worth visiting include the Biograd Museum, which exhibits various items of interest from the local area. The most interesting is an exhibit of items found on a Venetian ship that sank off the coast in the 16th century. There are also several churches to explore, such as the 18th-century Church of St. Anastasia, the small Church of St. Rocco and the remains of the medieval Church of St. Catherine.
