Picnic on the Island of Lokrum
Pack a picnic and head to the small island of Lokrum which is 600 meters off the sea shore of Dubrovnik. The serene shore has mesmerizing sapphire water, lush greenery and a Benedictine monastery to explore.
A Sundowner by the Sea
At the end of the day, enjoy cocktails in the romantic bar nestled in Dubrovnik’s cliff as you watch the sun swallowed into the Adriatic.
Local Fare on the Island of Pag
The working winery on Pag that also makes fresh salty sheep cheese is a must stop. Enjoy a candlelit dinner of Sea Bass Carpaccio or monkfish in creamy tomato sauce. Delicious!
Enjoy the Local Wines
Croatian wines are becoming more recognized with local, regional and international accolades. Enjoy the ambiance at a small Hvar hotel where a lantern-lit terrace with live jazz performers who play while guests feast on Dalmatian delicatessen and partake in its weekly wine-tasting.
Soak up the Solitude on the Island of Mljet
Plan a day trip to Mljet, a wooded island reached by a 90-minute ferry from Dubrovnik. Serene nature sets the stage for a beautiful romantic walk.
Live Like a Local in Veli Varoš
The mesmerizing neighborhood of Veli Varoš (near Split) is a jumble of winding lanes, peaceful squares, and stone cottages with beautiful flower gardens. Here you’ll get a glimpse of everyday Croatian life with your loved one.

Savor Secret Coves Near Korcula on a Private Yacht
