Deluxe Ship Magellan
The Magellan is an elegant, extremely seaworthy two-masted motor yacht, which lies pleasantly calm in the water even when the waves are rough. Spacious guest cabins with air conditioning and shower cabin/toilet are available on board. The tastefully furnished saloon with bar and the covered aft deck are equipped with comfortable seating. On the wide sun deck you will find sun loungers that invite you to relax and enjoy. You can also bathe in the sea in a very comfortable way from the bathing platform at the stern.
Great value is placed on good cuisine on the Magellan: the ship's owner is a member of the cooking academy for traditional Dalmatian cuisine and the owner of a restaurant on the island of Hvar, which is known beyond the borders of Croatia for its excellent cuisine. It goes without saying that he also implements these high culinary standards on his motor yacht. You can also look forward to an exquisite selection of Croatian wines.
Tour
You travel individually by car to Trogir or by plane to Split. After checking in between 2:00 p.m. and 2:30 p.m., the ship departs and takes you to Rogoznica, where you spend the first night.
In the morning you go by ship to Vodice, where your first bike tour begins. After a short time you will cross the bridge to the island of Murter. In Slanica you will meet your ship again, which will take you to the island of Dugi Otok. During the trip, enjoy the view of the crystal-clear water in the Kornati National Park, which is known for its diverse underwater world. Arrived in Telašćica Bay, take a short hike to impressive steep cliffs.
After breakfast you cycle from the Telašćica Nature Park on a panoramic road across the island. The views of the neighboring islands lying in the deep blue shimmering sea offer excellent photo opportunities. Your ship is waiting for you in Božava to take you to Zadar. Zadar has been the political, cultural and spiritual center of Dalmatia for centuries. Here your guide will lead you through the alleys of the old town. Discover 3000 years of history, the fortress wall with the defense towers, the loggia and the early Romanesque basilica of St. Donatus.
During breakfast your ship will take you to Preko on the island of Ugljan. Today's program is to explore the two islands of Ugljan and Pašman. Both islands are connected by a bridge. You always cycle along the coast and enjoy the beautiful views of the sea and the opposite mainland. From today's destination of Tkon, you will cross over to the well-known bathing resort of Vodice, where you will also spend the night.
Today's tour takes you from Vodice to the remote villages of the Dalmatian hinterland to the worth seeing port of Skradin at the foot of the Krka Canyon. In the afternoon you will take an excursion by boat and on foot to the natural lower waterfalls in the Krka Canyon National Park. You will spend the night in Skradin.
Während des Frühstücks bringt Sie Ihr Schiff weiter nach Šibenik. Ganz in der Nähe mündet die Krka in das Adriatische Meer. In Šibenik besuchen Sie die berühmte Kathedrale des Heiligen Jakob und die malerische Altstadt, bevor Sie am Mittag wieder ablegen und mit einer Badepause und einem leckeren MIttagessen, weiter bis nach Primošten fahren. In Primošten verbringen Sie den Nachmittag und Abend und übernachten auch dort.
Today you cycle on mostly quiet roads through the hinterland via small villages to Trogir. Enjoy the beautiful views of the city of Trogir and the offshore islands during this last bike tour of your trip. In the afternoon you have the opportunity to stroll through the medieval old town of Trogir. After dinner, let the trip come to an end with a cozy get-together of guests, crew and tour guides.
After breakfast at 09:00 in the morning your beautiful journey ends with disembarkation.
The planned route is always subject to possible changes due to nautical, meteorological or organisational reasons. If, for example, a route cannot be travelled due to low water, high water, bad weather or construction work, the captain reserves the right to change the route for your safety. This is not a legally valid reason for cancelling the trip free of charge. The same applies in the event of officially ordered lock or bridge repairs or in the event of engine or propulsion damage to the ship through no fault of the captain.
As your ship usually sails to the next harbour on the same day, your time frame for your own activities and sightseeing is limited. On some bridges, the clearance height is so low that the sun deck is closed for your safety.

Parking options in Trogir
In Trogir, we will be happy to organize a secure parking space for you on a private property near the port upon prior notification. Prices on request, payable locally upon arrival. Please reserve the parking space in good time before you start your journey.

Damage of this kind is only covered by the local comprehensive insurance. If you have booked a parking space, ask one of the tour guides at the ships when you arrive.
