Galleon Cruise around the Elaphiti Islands

Climb on board a majestic replica of a 16th-century karaka and enjoy an unforgettable tour of the Elaphiti islands off the Croatian coast!

Description

At the indicated time, we will pick you up at your hotel or chosen meeting point and proceed to Gruž Port. There we will board the Karaka, a detailed replica of a 16th-century galleon. This boat is essential to the Republic of Ragusa's historical competition with Venice for Mediterranean trade.

Our first stop is Kolo?ep, where you'll have an hour of free time. This island is notable for its boat construction history and is home to seven pre-Romanesque churches built between the 9th and 11th centuries.

Next, we head to Šipan, the largest of the Elaphiti Islands. You can explore the old summer mansions of the aristocracy and stroll through the island's cypress, lemon, and orange groves.

Our final stop will be Lopud, where you can enjoy the gardens, parks, and an old Franciscan monastery. Lopud also features sandy beaches for relaxation.

We will conclude the tour back at the starting point.
