The Adriatic opens like a cool, moving plaza when you push off from Trogir’s old harbor aboard a Marlin 790. Salt air tightens around the cockpit as the boat picks up speed and the promontories of Čiovo and the Šolta coastline slip astern. Waves shape the day; the sea dares you toward hidden coves and sunlit bays.
