Frequently Asked Questions

What makes the Dubrovnik city walls so special seen from a boat?

From land you only ever glimpse sections of the walls between buildings and crowds. From the sea you see the entire fortified Old Town in one sweep — the unbroken line of ramparts, the round Minčeta tower, Fort Lovrijenac on its rock and Fort St. John guarding the harbour. It is the single most complete and photogenic view of Dubrovnik there is, and on a private boat you can linger exactly where the light is best.

Can we stop for lunch or a swim during the cruise?

Yes. With four hours and a private boat the day is yours. You can drop anchor for a swim in the clear Adriatic whenever the mood takes you, and we can arrange an optional lunch at Saint Pietro restaurant (not included in the price). Just tell your skipper how you would like to balance sailing, swimming and lunch.

Can we add a professional guide or step ashore in the Old Town?

Absolutely. You can add a professional licensed guide on board to bring the history of the walls and fortresses to life, and we can arrange an optional disembarkation in the Old Town City Port so you finish your cruise right in the heart of Dubrovnik. Both are available on request when you book.
