Split - 10:00am - 10:30am High cliffs and secluded bays
After a 45min speedboat ride from Split or Trogir, we’ll stop in one of many breathtaking bays that were carved in the huge cliffs of this beautiful island. With the depth of 30 meters straight from the shore and the magnificent landscape, this place is a true oasis of wild nature. Refreshing dip and some sunbathing to properly start the day!

Trogir - 10:45am - 11:45am Secret military tunnel labyrinth
As we continue our journey along the rocky island on one side and the open sea on the other, we stumble upon a bit milder bay where we dock our boat. Just a few steps away a mysterious door hides a stairway that leads to complete darkness. Flashlights on! This might sound like the first chapter of an adventure videogame, and believe me, that’s exactly what it feels like! A whole labyrinth of tunnels, with each tunnel leading to its cannon pedestal! At this point, you’re getting flashbacks of every war movie you’ve seen while your tour guide talks about the history and use of the tunnel complex below your feet.
The tunnels are dry, full of fresh air, and the temperature inside is perfect to cool down on a hot summer day.

Croatia Property Sales - Split office - 12:00 - 13:30 Mountain goat island and the Blue oasis
With war stories on our mind and hot sun frying our skin, we move quickly to one of the most beautiful swim spots in Croatia, while passing by a small island with very special inhabitants. A group of mountain goats that get along pretty well with a few cormorants and hundreds of seagulls. Isn’t nature amazing? The answer to that question becomes obvious just moments later when we enter the Blue oasis area. Turquoise colors of crystal clear and clean sea will leave you speechless. Time to jump in!

Croatia Property Sales - Split office - 14:00 - 16:30 Wine tasting and under the bell lunch
At this point, everyone on board is already hungry and can’t wait to taste delicious authentic food, wine, and olive oil.
We get picked up by the host and after a 15 min drive in a minivan, we find ourselves in a small village overlooking the whole island. This place is an inevitable spot for gastro tourists and those who are yet to become ones.
A presentation and degustation based on olives, olive oil, and traditional dalmatian flavors, followed by homebaked bread, olive tapenades, salted anchovies and olives rounded by a few glasses of an authentic wine sort. Sounds inviting, doesn’t it?
Well, that’s just an appetizer.
The main course – grilled fish (catch of the day) or veal/lamb/chicken under the bell. Pure harmony of taste.
