You step onto the Riva as the harbor yawns awake—the Tamaris, a three-deck motor yacht, bobs gently beside Stand 8 while the palms along Diocletian’s promenade catch the morning light. A coffee and croissant set the tone, and soon the boat slips past Split’s fortressed waterfront toward Čiovo, to a small crescent of sand called Borkko where the Adriatic dares you to dive in.
