Big Cruise Ships Can’t Compete with This! Riviera Travel Croatian Yacht Cruise
Our Riviera Travel Dubrovnik & Southern Croatia Yacht Cruise was our first full day sailing the Adriatic — and it did not disappoint. We started the morning cruising past Dubrovnik, seeing the historic city walls from the water, which gave us a completely different perspective of this iconic destination. From there, we headed to a secluded bay for our very first swim stop. The captain dropped anchor and invited us to jump straight into the crystal-clear waters — an unforgettable highlight of the trip so far. Later, we sailed to Mljet where we docked in Pomena and joined a guided excursion through Mljet National Park. Established in 1960, the park is famous for its stunning saltwater lakes and the 12th-century Benedictine Monastery on St Mary’s Island. We even had the chance to swim between the lakes at Mali Most. In the evening, we experienced our first dinner ashore, finding a beautiful waterfront restaurant in Pomena before enjoying relaxed drinks back onboard. Small ship cruising in Croatia is already proving to be something special.

Disclosure: We were kindly invited onboard by Riviera Travel to experience their Southern Croatia Yacht Cruise with Bosnia and Herzegovina land tour. Riviera Travel had no editorial input, and as always, our thoughts and opinions are entirely our own. This Riviera Travel holiday combines a seven-night Adriatic yacht cruise with a three-night escorted land tour through Bosnia & Herzegovina. The journey begins in Dubrovnik, where you board a small, four-star yacht accommodating around 40 guests, offering an intimate and relaxed alternative to large cruise ships. Sailing along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast, the itinerary includes historic ports such as Korčula, Hvar, Split, Pučišća and Mljet. Guided walking tours introduce the history and culture of each destination, while free time allows independent exploration. The cruise also features scenic sailing, swim stops in clear waters and opportunities to enjoy the surrounding islands and national parks. Meals onboard include daily breakfast and lunch, plus a Captain’s Dinner. After disembarkation, the journey continues inland into Bosnia & Herzegovina. Highlights include the waterfalls of Kravice, the UNESCO-listed bridge in Mostar and the historic city of Sarajevo, where East meets West culturally and architecturally. The tour also visits Trebinje and local landmarks, providing insight into the region’s history and traditions. With flights, transfers, accommodation, guided tours and many meals included, the itinerary offers a comprehensive way to experience both the Croatian coastline and the Balkans beyond the Adriatic.
