The sun slides low behind the jagged silhouette of the Brijuni islands and the boat hums forward; salt air scents the deck and the Adriatic catches fire. On a three-hour private cruise from Pula, the moment stretches between warm orange light and the quick silver flashes of dolphins riding the bow wake—playful, curious, and often visible in the last hour before dusk.
