Croatia Island Sail and Ultra Music Festival with Festigo Travel | Sail First | Below-Deck Cabin | 2026 - 04 Jul 2026 to 04 Jul 2026

Ready to kickstart your Croatia sail trip? This morning we'll meet in Split, boarding our boat with, you guessed it, boat loads of enthusiasm. After our first stint at sea we’ll arrive in the glamorous playground of Hvar, where big shiny boats meet grand historic architecture. Once you've taken in the sites, you will dine alfresco on board, it’s a tough day in paradise.

Korčula may sit incredibly close to the mainland of Croatia but it's an island all of its own, which means we'll be slipping into island vibes accordingly. Hidden bars, peachy sunsets & cobbled streets by the beach, our appreciation for this country will be skyrocketing.

This morning we'll wake up in beautiful Korčula but we'll then be heading off to Dubrovnik. In the words of Bernard Shaw, acclaimed socialist & playwright, "those that seek paradise on earth should seek it in Dubrovnik." You heard the man - let's do this! Welcome to Paradise. Home to rugged cliffs, lashing seas, historic buildings (and a tonne of Game of Thrones references.) Today you'll have the chance to explore Dubrovnik on foot with a local guide. Tonight, head for the nightlife of the Urban District. Partying not your thing? No biggie. There are plenty of local restaurants, bars and cafes for you to check out too!

The city of Dubrovnik is so much more than just a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a Game of Thrones location - not that either of those claims to fame are even mildly mediocre. Visit Dubrovnik's Old Town, The Minceta Tower and Fortress Lovrijenac - otherwise known as GoT's King's Landing, entrance to the House of the Undying and The Red Keep. Or grab a kayak and view the magnificent city walls from the turquoise sea.

You think we're done sailing around Croatia? Not a chance. This morning we'll sail past the palms, cypresses, olive trees, citrus plantations and colourful reefs of the Elaphite Islands. As the sun sets, we'll dock at the unspoiled village of Trstenik. Here we'll have the chance to support and visit a family-owned winery and of course, sample some wine too. Then it's back to the boat for an optional Captain's dinner and a night of ship shenanigans.

After the peace and tranquillity of Trstenik, it’s time to head back to the mainland for more action. After a spot of swimming we’ll arrive in Makarska where we’ll be blessed by the beautiful Biokovo mountains and a long stretch of beach ready to be enjoyed. Wanna dive deeper into this town's olive oil legacy? Then join us on an olive farm visit where you'll get to sample some of its finest!

This morning, we'll sail back to our starting point of Split. Fresh off our Adriatic adventures, it’s time to dive into Split’s Roman roots and wander through its oh-so-atmospheric streets (yes, more Game of Thrones moments incoming). Rest up though - tomorrow kicks off your 3-day Ultra Music Festival pass, and trust us, you’ll need the energy.

We’ll wave goodbye to the boat in the morning and squeeze in some extra Split time before checking into our hotel base. The afternoon’s yours to wander the old town, grab a gelato, or laze by the sea. Then it’s back to the festival for another night of lasers, beats, and pure ULTRA energy.

Sleep in, recharge, and make the most of a free day in Split. Then, as night falls, we dive straight back into the ULTRA madness for another round of world-class beats and fireworks.

As the last beats fade at 5am, we say goodbye to ULTRA on a high. Breakfast is waiting, Croatia’s beauty delivered - and the lifelong crew you’ve made? That’s the real highlight.
