ADRIATIC PARADISE Cruise from Split

ADRIATIC PARADISE Cruise 2026 
by Lupus Mare

DESCRIPTION

There are journeys remembered for the places they visit, and those rare ones remembered for how they feel. Adriatic Paradise Cruise by Lupus Mare belongs to the latter — a voyage that reveals the Adriatic slowly, through its rhythm, colors, and scents, without haste and without compromise. 

Sailing from Split to Split, this carefully curated route unfolds some of the most captivating faces of the Croatian coast: from the ancient grandeur of Diocletian’s Palace to the untouched nature of Vis and Mljet, and onward to the historic elegance of Korčula, Dubrovnik, and sun-drenched Hvar. Each day brings a new setting — secluded bays for swimming, crystal-clear waters, centuries-old towns, and moments that linger precisely because they are unhurried and rich in experience rather than excess. 

Your home at sea, M/Y Lupus Mare, combines the comfort of a boutique hotel with the relaxed elegance of a private yacht. Spacious cabins, a sun deck with jacuzzi, sauna, intimate cinema room, and a dedicated crew create an atmosphere where it is easy to let go — whether your day begins with a swim in a tranquil bay or ends with a glass of wine beneath the stars. 

This cruise is designed for travelers seeking more than a conventional itinerary — for those who wish to experience the Adriatic from within, in its most beautiful, serene, and authentic form. 

Below, you will find the detailed day-by-day itinerary — a journey measured not in miles, but in memories.
