Description

Begin your journey in Dubrovnik, where you'll board a beautifully restored traditional Dalmatian wooden boat. As you sail along the stunning coastline towards the island of Šipan, enjoy breathtaking views while learning about Croatia's rich winemaking traditions, indigenous grape varieties, and the fascinating history of Dalmatian wine culture. During the cruise, taste carefully selected Croatian wines and traditional rakija, perfectly paired with local delicacies such as artisan cheeses, olive oil, homemade preserves, fresh fruit, and other regional specialties. Rather than simply serving wine, the focus is on storytelling, explaining what makes Croatian wines among Europe's best-kept secrets. After arriving on the peaceful island of Šipan, visit a family-owned boutique winery where you'll be welcomed by the winemakers themselves. Here, enjoy a guided tasting of four additional wines while discovering the winery's philosophy, vineyards, and production methods in an intimate and relaxed atmosphere. Following the winery visit, enjoy free time to stroll through the picturesque village of Suđurađ, admire its stone houses and small harbor, or simply enjoy the slower pace of island life. On the return journey, stop in a secluded Adriatic bay where you can swim in crystal-clear waters, relax on board, or simply take in the spectacular scenery before sailing back to Dubrovnik.
