Description
This proud, modern three-master was a core part of our fleet for many years, until its former owner decided a couple of years ago to organise a different type of cruise. In autumn 2016, Sveti Vid was sold – and to none other than our long-term captain Marin Mladin (nicknamed Čičak or “burdock” because of his beard) from the Otac Luka, whose rudder he held in his hands for eleven years. Čičak and his son Marin completely renovated Sveti Vid in Winter 2016/2017 with no external assistance whatsoever. The bathrooms in all the cabins were completely renovated and newly furnished and the saloon was completely redesigned. His wife Nina also had a significant hand in decorating the saloon, which can be seen at first glance. While Captain Čičak steers the Sveti Vid with a sure hand through the Adriatic, his son Marin takes care of the guests and makes sure that everything on board is in perfect order.

Impressions from the itinerary
Route
Featuring a well-done blend of swimming, sunbathing, short bike tours, sightseeing tours, guided walks and easy hikes, our “Active & Cappuccino” cruises could be best described as „active light with a pinch of culture“. The kayak safari, including a picnic beneath the waterfalls, is one of the finest highlights to be mentioned. The program – always accompanied by a tour guide – is aimed at all those who don’t just want to spend their cruise on the sun deck and in the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic, but don’t want either to be forced to go on daily bike tours of 40 or 50 km or spend hours on hikes. And, of course, there’s enough time left over to sit around or enjoy a relaxed cappuccino. Our “Active & Cappuccino” cruise is also suitable for families with children, as it’s also possible to hire children’s bikes. According to the motto “anything goes but nothing’s compulsory”, you decide for yourself which activities you want to participate in, or if you would just like to spend one or more days on the boat relaxing and enjoying your free time.

Bicycle tour or hike on the island of Molat, guided tour of Zadar
Our first destination of the day is the island of Molat. Starting from the pier of the village Molat, we go by bike to the village of Zapuntel, and then on the same way back to our boat (approx. 18 km). Those who do not want to take the bike tour, can make a hike across the island. After lunch on board, we will have some time for swimming and sunbathing before continuing our voyage towards Zadar, the former capital of Dalmatia.

The guide will show you the main attractions – such as the Roman Forum, the Round Church of Sveti Donat, the Cathedral of Sveta Stošija and the unique Sea Organs – their sounds and “melodies” are created purely by the movement of the waves. Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to enjoy dinner in one of the restaurants or konobas. Overnight stay in the port of Zadar.

Visit to the olive grove in Lun, guided tour of Rab
The Island of Pag stands out above all by its extremes – partly meagre like a lunar landscape, partly covered with lush green mountain fields, where numerous sheep graze, “producing” the famous Pag cheese. By boat we continue from Mandre to Lun, a small place at the north-western tip of the island. There, we will make a short walk to visit one of the most beautiful olive groves in the entire Mediterranean area. Spread over a surface of 24 acres of land there are about 80,000 impressive olive trees. Some of them are more than five metres high and older than 1,500 years. Enjoy the beauties of nature during a guided walk through the olive grove and learn more about olives and the precious oil and their significance for a healthy diet. After lunch on board and an extended break for swimming and sunbathing, we set of for Rab, the capital of the homonymous island. The old town of Rab with its unique bell towers stretches along a narrow rocky peninsula, surrounded by water on three sides. Three streets run through the old town – the “Lower Street” with cafés and pubs, the “Middle Street” with boutiques, souvenir shops and ice cream parlours, and the “Upper Street”, which will take you to the four churches with their bell towers. After arrival guided tour of Rab. Enjoy dinner in one of the numerous restaurants. Overnight stay on board.

Bicycle tour or mountain hike on the island of Rab, walk in Krk
After breakfast, we take an easy bicycle tour through the pine-covered peninsula of Suha Punta (approx. 12 km). Those who wish to take a more challenging tour can alternatively enjoy a “mountain hike” on the Kamenjak (408 m). The mountain not only protects the city of Rab from the cold north winds; it also offers a fantastic view on the Velebit mountain range, the islands, the town of Rab and the Nature Park of the Kalifront peninsula. After returning on board with plenty of appetite, we will enjoy lunch and leave the port of Rab, heading to a secluded bay. Here we will anchor for a swimming break, before continuing to the Island of Krk, the last island of our trip. After a walk through the old town of Krk, we head for Njivice, where will stay for overnight.
