You step onto a compact 21-foot speedboat as the quay lights of Gruž Port fade behind you, salt air lifting like a promise. The skipper peels away from the harbor; the city’s stone walls slide into view on one side while the green Elaphite Islands sit like quiet islands of pine and limestone on the horizon. Waves nudge the hull, and the sun lowers until the sky burns orange over the old town.
