MS Orkan / Route T2

Port of Trogir - Central Dalmatia

Comfort

Description

The Orkan has been sailing in our fleet for many years. By end of the 2018 season, captain Damir Pedišić from the island of Pašman became the new owner of MS Orkan. Damir has an immortal love for traditional wooden ships and can look back on many years of experience in tourism. For 22 years he has been on day trips with his ship "Tri Marije", which is the oldest Croatian wooden ship still in service and has been in the family's possession for more than 150 years. The sympathetic Damir is captain, tour guide and cook at the same time, because he does not miss the opportunity to prepare freshly caught fish on the grill by himself. The Orkan has another crucial advantage: With a capacity of only 20 passengers it is the ideal vessel to be chartered by groups for exclusive use. You probably already know this – when you charter the full ship, you can decide where the journey will take you, in agreement with the captain, of course.

Impressions from the itinerary

Route

Route:
Trogir – Rogoznica – Zadar – Island of Dugi Otok – Kornati Islands National Park – Vodice – Krka Waterfalls – Šibenik – Island of Zlarin – Split – Island of Šolta – Trogir

Between 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm boarding at the port of Trogir. If you arrive in Trogir by your own car, you can drive to our car park reception from 10:00 am until 1:00 pm at the latest. Here you can park your car and our service team will bring your luggage to the port or to the ship in time. You will reach the harbour in about ten minutes on foot (approx. 1,100 m) via the pedestrian bridge. After embarkation, our representatives will welcome you aboard with a drink and you will meet the crew and your fellow passengers. “Cast off!”, heading towards Rogoznica, a picturesque fishing village, situated on an island connected to the mainland by a causey. On our way we will anchor in a bay to enjoy the first dip into the refreshing waters of the Adriatic Sea.
The port of embarkation for passengers arriving by plane depends on the flight schedule. With transfer booking via I.D. Riva Tours and flight arrival to Split airport until 01:00 pm, embarkation in the port of Trogir is guaranteed. Passengers arriving later will be transferred to the first port of call for embarkation.

We leave the mainland and head towards one of the islands in the archipelago of Šibenik for a nice swim. We then continue on to Zadar, the cultural and economic centre of northern Dalmatia. The old town, with its numerous religious and secular monuments, is located on a peninsula and surrounded by impressive walls. After arriving in Zadar, a local tour guide will await us to take us on a walk through the walled old town, showing us unique sights like the Roman Forum, the circular church of Sveti Donat, or the Cathedral Sveta Stošija. Enjoy traffic-free streets with elegant boutiques and countless cafés, or listen to the sounds of the world-wide unique Sea Organs on the Riva, whose melodies are created purely by waves. Overnight stay in Zadar.

Today’s destination is the island of Dugi Otok, the “Long Island”, since it is 45 km long and only a few hundred metres wide. After a swim we head to Telašćica, a gorgeous bay in the south of the island of Dugi Otok, which is also a Nature Park (admission about 10 € per person, payable on-site). We recommend a walk to the “Silver Lake” – known from the Winnetou movie – a saltwater lake with an underground connection to the sea. From the lake you can reach the approximately 161 metre high cliffs, which offer a breathtaking sea view.

According to the Irish author George Bernard Shaw, ”On the last day of creation, God crowned his work, and thus created, out of tears, stars and breath, the Kornati Islands”. The beautiful scenery, countless small and large islands, and the turquoise sea – all this makes the Kornati Islands a unique paradise. It is the largest and most dense archipelago in the Adriatic Sea – comprising 147 islands, islets and reefs, which cover an area of 35 km of length. We cruise along the entire length of the Kornati Islands, and after a swim, we enter the harbour of Vodice, a lively holiday resort. In the evening, you can enjoy a glass of wine in one of the cosy taverns or Konobas.

A few miles further south, we leave the Adriatic Sea and turn into the embouchure of the River Krka. We go upstream and anchor in Skradin, shortly before the famous Krka waterfalls. From there, smaller boats will take you to the National Park. You will have the opportunity to visit “Skradinski Buk”, the most popular part of the waterfall area, where in 17 falls, with up to 100 m broad cascades, the Krka rushes 45.7 metres down. Entrance fee to the National Park incl. boat transfer € 20 € (April, May, October) resp. € 40 (June-September), payable on site. On our return to the Adriatic Sea we will stop in Šibenik. The most famous building in the fortress-like old town is the St. Jacob’s Cathedral, the most important Renaissance monument in Croatia. After a stroll through the old town, we will return to the islands and anchor in the small port of the fishing village of Zlarin on the homonymous island.

Our first destination today is Split, Croatia’s second largest city and the capital of Dalmatia. The 1700 years old city was once the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian, and is now under the protection of the UNESCO. We leave Split and head for the island of Šolta. The island is characterized by extensive olive groves, which produce first class, very dark olive oil. For our overnight stay we tie up in the cosy port of Stomorska. We might also spend the night in Split and visit the island of Šolta on Friday morning.

Note: Starting in 2025, the number of ships moored in the port of Split at the same time will be significantly reduced by the authorities, and one pier will be completely reconstructed. This may result in Split not being called.

We leave the island of Šolta and serenely return to the starting point of our journey. Of course, on our way we will anchor in one of the many coves for a refreshing swimming break. We will reach Trogir in the early evening. With its amazing old town, protected by the UNESCO, Trogir is also called “the Museum City”. Enjoy the experience of a guided walking tour through the winding streets and discover impressive walls, towers, churches, frescoes and vaults. Do not miss out on taking a look into the unique old yards. Take the opportunity to enjoy dinner in one of the numerous restaurants in Trogir. Overnight stay in the port of Trogir.

After breakfast, disembarkation until 9:00 am.

Location

Port of Trogir - Central Dalmatia

One of the most picturesque old towns of Dalmatia. Trogir – about 20 km north of Split, close to the airport. The old town is situated on a small island, which is connected by a bridge to the main land. Another bridge leads from this island to the island of Čiovo, upstream of Trogir. Due to its numerous monuments from all periods, Trogir is also called “Museum City”. It is a great experience to stroll through the narrow alleys during the afternoon or evening time. The massive walls, defence towers, churches, frescoes and vaults are simply astonishing. It is also interesting to take a look into the old back yards. After visiting the museums, treasuries, art collections and old libraries, restaurants, cafés, taverns and the typical Konobas invite you to enjoy a relaxing break. Seget, which is situated right next to Trogir, actually consists of two villages, Seget Donji with its superb stone and gravel beaches, and Seget Gornji, set a few miles away on a mountain, with its ancient stone houses. In short: Trogir and Seget are the ideal combination for a relaxing and exciting vacation.

Sojourn tax and harbour fees are not included in the prices and are payable in cash on board upon embarkation. These are € 49 per person and week, € 24 for children up to 12 years.

Tip recommendation: You will certainly be happy to reward the service crew’s performance with a tip. We recommend an amount from € 70 per cabin and week.
