Huck Finn 8 days/7 nights trip

Adventure Sailing
Dubrovnik, Croatia

Adventure Sailing holiday isn't just a sailing trip or adventure package. It is designed for those who love being active in the nature, who admire art and history and appreciate ancient architecture and local tradition. Daily activities are rather short and not too demanding. Dubrovnik, the Elafiti shorelines and Mljet Island National Park are rich in history and natural variety - cliffs, caves, coves, rocks, beaches, pine forests... We will explore them while sailing on a yacht, sea kayaking, cycling, swimming, snorkeling and on foot.

Lopud, Kolocep and Sipan belong to the the Elafiti Islands archipelago - some of Croatia's most beautiful green islands covered by forests with lots of sunshine and sandy beaches, free of traffic, and under an hour’s sailing time from Dubrovnik. Our yachts or kayaks are occasionally escorted by friendly dolphins or tuna that are often seen in the area. The sea is blue, clear, warm and friendly.

Reviews

Zeljko, sailing the Adriatic with you, Monika and Pipo (spelling, sorry!) was truly the best vacation we've ever had. We want to go again with you next summer and explore some of the more central and northern islands, ok? Scott and I thank you for making our vacation so memorable, and also we are grateful for your friendship.

Our warmest regards,

Big hug, Tracy


Zeliko & Monica,

The only problem with a reference from Tracy and me is that people may not believe us - as the sailing experience was truly THE VERY BEST VACATION we have ever had in our lives - but we will do our very best to get the point across!

Warmest regards to you both from Moscow (still freezing here, -2 C).

Looking forward to the next time.

Scott


We sailed round the islands for a week and had one of our best ever hols. They had sought out great restaurants, beautiful beaches, delightful villages. All genuine local people, rather than tourist traps. Captain and crew were (both) delightful companions.

Steven C., Arbroath, United Kingdom


If you love the outdoors, being near water and are looking to leave your watch & laptop behind and refresh your mind and body, book an adventure with Huck Finn Adventure Travels.

We just returned from the 5 day Catamaran Sailing - Croatia/Dubrovnik Trip on their web-site. It was FABULOUS! Sailing along the islands over the sparkling blue green water,. eating fresh seafood at the different quaint ports and enjoying hiking, biking, kayaking, snorkeling and sitting on the deck, made this vacation our most memorable!

Huck Finn is geared toward the action-adventure vacation with relaxation parts so you sleep well at night! We had a blast each day as we did something a bit different. We were impressed with the coordination of the Huck Finn's Schedule, packing list, activities including our airport pick up/departure, accommodations, helpful and experienced trip guides and the well organized yet flexible manner of our itinerary.

Sailing on a 44 foot Catamaran was incredible! We had a friendly and informative Captain plus 4 couples/ youths on our boat and we had plenty of room. The boat was clean and the cabins were tidy, the included meals were fresh local fare and tasty.
The atmoshere was relaxed and the staff was ever available to help in any way they could. When we booked last March for this trip, we wanted to stay longer in the Dubrovnik area, Huck Finn was wonderful about making the arrangements for our extra days and activities. We appreciated their easygoing/eager to please attitude.

We loved our trip with Huck Finn and hope to book another one someday!

Huck Finn is geared toward the action-adventure vacation with relaxation parts so you sleep well at night! We had a blast each day as we did something a bit different. We were impressed with the coordination of the Huck Finn's Schedule, packing list, activities including our airport pick up/departure, accommodations, helpful and experienced trip guides and the well organized yet flexible manner of our itinerary.

Sailing on a 44 foot Catamaran was incredible! We had a friendly and informative Captain plus 4 couples/ youths on our boat and we had plenty of room. The boat was clean and the cabins were tidy, the included meals were fresh local fare and tasty.
The atmoshere was relaxed and the staff was ever available to help in any way they could. When we booked last March for this trip, we wanted to stay longer in the Dubrovnik area, Huck Finn was wonderful about making the arrangements for our extra days and activities. We appreciated their easygoing/eager to please attitude.

We loved our trip with Huck Finn and hope to book another one someday!
