Cruise from Korčula to Mljet National Park for a guided visit to the Benedictine monastery, swims in the salt lakes, SUP time and a 3-course Mediterranean lunch aboard a luxury yacht. Intimate group size and varied activities make this a full, seaside day trip.

The yacht slips out of Korčula’s quiet harbor and the Adriatic opens like a chapter you can step into. Saltwater slicks along the hull as the captain threads between islands; by mid-morning the twin sea lakes of Mljet National Park come into view, their glassy surfaces daring you to dive in. The islet of St. Mary holds a 12th-century Benedictine monastery — low stone walls and a bell tower that keep time with gulls.
