The boat eases away from Dubrovnik’s harbor and the city walls shrink into a strip of ochre and stone, the sea immediately taking the lead — cool, vast, and insistent. Within minutes the motor yachts slice into the blue between islands, currents nudging the hulls toward coves where water is clearer than glass and cliffs throw sharp shadows across shallow reefs.
