36 Hours in Split, Croatia
Whether you’re sailing out of Split to explore the beautiful Croatian islands close by, or hopping along the coast to Dubrovnik and beyond, make sure you save some time to explore this fascinating city. Originally designed as the retirement palace for the Roman emperor Diocletian, today its narrow alleys are a mix of tourist spots, restaurants, and living history. Here’s my favourite spots!
Medsailors Croatia – Sun, Sea + Dolphins
Medsailors Croatia was an amazing week filled with incredible Croatian land and sea-scapes, laughs and multiple pods of dolphins! The beautiful villages were captivating to visit, but sailing in between them is truly magical. Spending a week exploring with fantastic friends makes for one very special holiday.
