And what would you say for the delicacies made of natural ingredients from a domestic garden?

Peer into the Captain's Kitchen and while you are cruising, discover the charm of the fresh prepared food...dalmatian „spiza“...

Your crew: the family of the owner and the Captain of the ship M/S POLO (the Captain, his wife, the cook and their sons – the sailors)

SATURDAY... After you settle down on the board, along with domestic apperitives and cookies, we wigh anchor and start to cruise toward the island Šolta.

To make your journey more interesting, Captain invites you warmly to take a part in preparing your meals together with his wife.

Almost all of the goods that this family uses are from their own garden, so the food is plentiful in savour and odour.

STOMORSKA: was constructed as the port of Gornje Selo and is considered the oldest costal settlement on the island. Stone houses, yards, alleys and stairs up the nearby hills, are interwoven by the harmonious architecture into the sides of a deep gulf at the bottom of which is the old core of the place. The port is always full of life, of that well-known Dalmatian murmur, and in this cacophony of human voices, roar of tools, boat motors and sounds of the waves, a careful listener will hear and feel the beat of this climate.

SUNDAY... After the good sleep and along with real dalmatian breakfast, we start to cruise to the island Hvar – to Stari Grad. Before we get there, we shall stop in one beautiful bay for bath and to have a lunch. What suprise will Captain's Kitchen prepare for us today? While you are swimming, something delicately cooks in the pot...

STARI GRAD:  as the time stopped. As if the old Venetian galleys are to arrive int he stone port, while numerous churches help the people with their problem sin an exalted manner.  

MONDAY... To explore our sunniest island, Hvar, it's not enough just to „touch“ only one of its pearls; our wish is to show you also a town of Jelsa.

Here our hostlady, our cook, asks for some help in the kitchen. Any volunteer?

JELSA:  is located in the central part of the island of Hvar, lovely, pure, friendly and open to guests and visitors. It is bordered by two island tops - St Nicolas in the west and Hum in the east. In the south it is surrounded by hills Vrh, Samotorac and Gozd, and it is protected from the northern winds by the hill Burkovo.

THUESDAY... Brač, the island of stone – the island of craftsman

By comming to Pučišća, you'll meet one of the oldest handcraft – stone-worker's. We recommend a visit to the stone-worker's school and sightseeing. Of course, it will be enough time for relaxing in one of the Brač's bays too.

PUČIŠĆA: Staying and overnight int he biggest Brač's town, Pučišća, will allowe us to get know at least some part of „stone world“: here from the ancient times is „war“ between stone and men. They would say: „is hard with or without you“, because the people here live „on stone, for stone and from stone“. (more on www.pucisca.hr)

WEDNESDAY... Pučišća-Omiš

Wholeness of the nature is authenticly shown in the town of Omiš: harmony of river, mountain and sea. The fort Fortica, Radmanove Mlinice, Mila Gojsalić – these are all beautiful places to see.

OMIŠ:  is situated in the canyon of the beautiful Cetina river, and is surrounded by massive gorges. In the past it was widely known for its pirates whose ships were, for foreign conquerors, the synonym of revenge, courage and strength for centuries. The strength of courageous pirates is now decanted into the authentic songs of the gangs of Omiš.

You simply must go to the top of the Fortica fortress situated in the old town Almissa!

THURSDAY... We wish you good morning by serving you a nice dalmatian breakfast. Sandy bay Lovrećina will inspire you with its beauty and enable you really unforgetable relaxation. Do rest yourself, because the Captain is preparing a suprise dinner for you: you'll be a guest in his house in Sumpetar and be served with a dinner prepared on a fire.

FRIDAY… leaving the the Captain's port, we are cruising toward the proud town of Trogir

TROGIR: is a museum in the real sense of the word. Lovers of cultural and historical sights, works of art, original buildings and lovely streets will find the rich and stratified heritage in Trogir - from the romanic yards to the modern interiors.

SATURDAY...unboarding at 9:00, after breakfast

We are sorry that you are leaving, but with all our heart and good „spiza“, we are

expecting you the very next year!


Good bye wish you Lion Queen Charter Team!
