Highlights


Dalmatian Coast - Day 4

UNESCO Site of Kotor

Kotor is the deepest natural fjord in the Mediterranean, wedged between a moody corner of the bay and brooding mountains, achingly atmospheric and featuring stunning fortifications including the 10th century city walls, the Baroque church of St Blaise.

UNESCO World Heritage Site of Kotor

Krka National Park, Croatia

Home to abundant indigenous flora and fauna including over 200 bird species, it’s a magical place of waterfalls and gorges, with the river gushing through a karstic canyon 200m deep. Extending along the 73km Krka River, Krka National Park runs from the Adriatic near Sibenik inland to the mountains of the Croatian interior. The area’s remoteness has been attracting monks who constructed their monasteries here.

Hvar Croatia

Hvar, Croatia

High points of the port town Hvar include its 13th-century walls, a hilltop citadel and a main square anchored by the Renaissance-era Hvar Cathedral. Hvar’s theatre holds an inevitable place in the general history of theatre. Its foundation in 1612 made it become the first civic theatre in Europe. The theatre was built above the Arsenal.
