Primošten → Krknjaši Bay
Departing Primošten, the terracotta-roofed jewel clinging to its island perch, chart a course south for Krknjaši Bay on Veli Drvenik, a journey of approximately 20 nautical miles. This sheltered horseshoe cove, fringed with Aleppo pines, offers water of remarkable clarity where the seabed of white sand is clearly visible even at depth. Drop anchor and enjoy a refreshing swim as the afternoon sun begins to soften. For dinner, row ashore to a local konoba, perhaps Konoba Bila Lučica, to sample the 'gregada', a hearty fisherman's stew, a taste of authentic island life. The bay is typically calm, providing a peaceful anchorage for the night, with only the gentle sounds of cicadas and distant chatter to accompany the sunset.
Things to do
Swim in the exceptionally clear waters of Krknjaši Bay
Dine on traditional 'gregada' at a waterfront konoba
Explore the pine-clad shoreline by dinghy
Enjoy the tranquil sunset from your catamaran
Mooring tip
Anchor in Krknjaši Bay's sand in 4-8 metres; holding is excellent. No marina services available, so provision in Primošten.
Krknjaši Bay → Komiža (Vis)
Depart Krknjaši Bay for the 25-nautical-mile passage west to the island of Vis and the fishing village of Komiža. The approach offers a first glimpse of the island's dramatic cliffs, some concealing remnants of WWII coastal defences. Consider a stop in Stiniva Cove, a truly unique pebble beach accessible through a narrow sea gate, though anchoring here is exposed. Alternatively, push on to Komiža, a picturesque harbour where colourful fishing boats bob alongside stern-to moorings. Dinner at Konoba Bako is a must for their fried anchovies or bogueroni, served as the scent of pine resin drifts down from the hillsides. Watch the fishermen mend their nets under the glow of harbour lanterns, a scene unchanged for generations.
Things to do
Visit the historic WWII bunkers above Komiža
Anchor briefly in Stiniva Cove for a swim
Enjoy fried anchovies at Konoba Bako
Explore the charming harbour of Komiža
Mooring tip
Komiža harbour offers stern-to moorings; check depth and secure lines carefully. Fuel is available at the main pier.
Komiža → Vis Town
Depart Komiža mid-morning for the 15-nautical-mile passage east to Vis Town, the island's historic heart. En route, consider a brief stop at Biševo's famous Blue Cave (Modra špilja), arriving around noon when sunlight transforms the water into liquid sapphire. Continue south to the islet of Budihovac, anchoring in its shallow, turquoise lagoon for a refreshing swim. The final leg brings you to Vis Town harbour, where ancient Greek and Roman ruins lie beneath a labyrinth of stone streets. Moor stern-to along the Riva, then wander inland to discover the remnants of the Roman theatre and the atmospheric courtyards. Tonight, seek out a konoba serving peka – octopus slow-cooked under embers for three hours, a true taste of the island. The scent of rosemary and sea salt will fill the air as dusk settles.
Things to do
Visit the Blue Cave (Modra špilja) at midday
Swim and snorkel in Budihovac lagoon
Explore Vis Town's Roman ruins and theatre
Dine on traditional octopus peka
Mooring tip
Vis Town Riva offers stern-to mooring with good holding in sand and mud; book ahead in high season.
Vis → Hvar
Today's 25-nautical-mile run southeast brings you to Hvar Town, a perennial favourite. Drop anchor in the exceptionally sheltered Palmižana Bay on Sveti Klement island, renowned for its clear waters and fragrant pine forests. Spend the afternoon exploring secluded coves by dinghy, perhaps a quick dip before making for Hvar Town itself. The harbour is a lively scene, with yachts stern-to the Riva promenade. Wander the steep, narrow streets, past Venetian loggias and the Arsenal, perhaps climbing to the Španjola fortress for sunset views over the Pakleni islands. The air here often carries the scent of sea salt and rosemary from the surrounding hills.
Things to do
Anchor in Palmižana Bay for secluded swims
Explore Hvar Town's Venetian architecture
Climb to Španjola Fortress for panoramic views
Dine at a waterfront restaurant along the Riva
Mooring tip

Hvar → Stari Grad
Depart Hvar Town mid-morning for the 12-nautical-mile hop across the channel to Stari Grad on the island of Hvar, a harbour settled by Greeks in 384 BC. The UNESCO-listed Stari Grad Plain, a grid of ancient stone walls still used for cultivating grapes and olives, awaits exploration by bicycle. Consider lunch at a family-run konoba like Kod barba Luke, where lamb skewers cooked over olive-wood embers and local vitalac are a speciality. Enjoy a glass of robust Plavac Mali wine beneath the shade of fig trees, listening to the cicadas hum as the afternoon heat softens. Moor stern-to in the sheltered bay, a welcome change from Hvar's bustle.

Stari Grad → Maslinica (Šolta)
Cast off from Stari Grad for the 20-nautical-mile reach west to Šolta, aiming for the charming harbour of Maslinica. This picturesque bay, sheltered by olive groves, offers water so clear it mirrors the sky. Drop anchor in the tranquil waters of Šešula Bay, just south of the village. The bay's namesake konoba, Šešula, serves exceptional lamb peka, a dish prepared over three hours and best enjoyed as the sun dips below the horizon, painting the water in shades of amber. A short dinghy ride takes you to the small island topped by the Martinis Marchi castle, offering a glimpse into the island's history. The gentle evening breeze, carrying the scent of pine and wild herbs, signals a peaceful night's rest.
Things to do
Anchor in Šešula Bay and swim
Explore the Martinis Marchi castle
Dine on traditional lamb peka at Konoba Šešula
Walk the Maslinica waterfront promenade
Mooring tip
Anchor in Šešula Bay in 5-10 metres of sand and weed; holding is good. Maslinica village has limited stern-to moorings.
Maslinica → Primošten
Depart Maslinica on Šolta for the 22-nautical-mile run northeast back to Primošten, a charming peninsula town. The approach offers fine views of the terracotta roofs clustered around the hilltop Church of St. George. Anchor in the clear, sandy bottom of the bay before making your way ashore. Spend the afternoon with a final swim at Raduča Beach, its shallow waters perfect for a last dip. Climb the worn stone steps to the church, where generations of pilgrims have sought solace, and enjoy the panoramic views. As the sun dips, find a table at a harbour-side konoba, perhaps Konoba Toni, and toast your journey with a glass of local Babić wine, its deep flavour a fitting end to your week.

Swim at Raduča Beach before the afternoon breeze picks up
Climb to St. George’s Church for panoramic views
