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'll pick you up at your hotel or chosen meeting point and make our way to Gruž Port. There we'll board a Karaka, a detailed replica of an authentic 16th-century galleon. This type of boat played a crucial role in the Republic of Ragusa's competition with Venice for control of Mediterranean trade.

We'll arrive at the first of the Elaphiti islands, Kolo?ep, where you'll have an hour of free time. This island was historically significant for boat construction 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 will have free time to explore old aristocratic summer mansions and the natural beauty of its cypress, lemon, and orange groves. Its port and quiet beaches provide scenic views of the coast and surrounding islands.

Our final stop will be Lopud, where you can explore gardens and parks or walk along the bay to view the old Franciscan monastery. Lopud also has sandy beaches for swimming and relaxation.

We will conclude the tour by returning to the starting point.
