A NEW LIFE EXPERIENCE

The Croatian coast, stretching from the Istrian Cape Kamenjak across the islands of Kvarner, the peninsulas of Northern and Southern Dalmatia, all the way to Dubrovnik, is perfectly suited for exploring and traveling by boat. This way, you stay on the boat, enjoy a certain level of comfort with breakfast and dinner on board, and have your running gear with you at all times. Each day, based on the planned route, the boat takes you to a new starting point, connecting trails—usually across islands, along their coastlines, or peninsulas. This is a unique combination of boat travel and trail running—true island hopping, an experience only the Croatian Adriatic can offer, with its thousands of islands, hidden coves, charming coastal towns, and stunning archipelagos.

 

BOAT BASED TRAVEL WITH RUNNING EXPERIENCES

The selection of boats is vast—you can now choose anything from a simple wooden boat to an authentic gulet, or even a luxury yacht, if you’re willing to invest a bit more. Boats range in size from two to twenty cabins, making it possible for a family, a group of friends, or even a larger trail running team to enjoy the experience together. We combine boat-based travel with carefully designed trail running experiences—whether it’s gravel trails across the islands, or a complete network of mountain trails stretching from Istria all the way to Dubrovnik.

Having spent three decades on the Adriatic with passion, we know countless trail running options to satisfy everyone.  The boats follow the route, connecting the islands and the mainland into a truly special trail running story.

Our island-hopping offer is designed for private groups, unlike 90% of our competitors who sell individual cabin spots on pre-scheduled tours. Instead, we provide the entire boat with cabins for the whole group of trail runners, along with a carefully crafted trail running program. This is a fully custom-made experience, tailored to trail running, the best routes, the most beautiful islands, the optimal itinerary, and the richest overall experience. Alongside the captain, skipper, and the onboard crew, your journey will be guided by trail running experts, local guides, and organizers, who ensure that your travel and running adventure is as authentic and immersive as possible—just as it should be on the Adriatic.

WHAT WE DO

From the moment you arrive in Croatia by plane, we take care of all necessary transfers and accommodations. Even before the boarding day on the boat, we can arrange extra nights, additional running days, or any other activities you may wish for.

We keep you informed. Each evening after dinner, we hold a group meeting to present the planned sailing route, the planned trails, and other options for the next day—whether it’s alternative running routes, sightseeing on the islands, or different group running arrangements. A short morning briefing follows before we set off, highlighting key details of the day’s run.

Onboard, we ensure your comfort and well-being.
We provide breakfast, snacks, and dinner, while an optional light lunch is usually enjoyed at local taverns on the islands or the mainland. A full-board option on the boat is available upon request, though this depends on the nature of the trail running tours.

We are with you every step of the way.
We offer recommendations for island sightseeing, the best local restaurants for lunch, the finest coffee spots in town, trail running tips, and even advice on charming rural stops where you can meet locals and enjoy authentic homemade products. We’ll take you to the best wineries, olive oil producers, artisan workshops, and remote villages where hospitality and tradition go hand in hand.

The sailing itinerary is carefully planned for the most breathtaking experiences.
This means anchoring in the most beautiful bays for swimming, using picturesque local harbors for overnight stays, and stopping in scenic coastal towns for evening strolls. Our coordination with the captain ensures optimal overnight anchoring, the best swimming stops, and seamless access to must-see locations.

Your trail running experience is customized to your capabilities.

We provide GPX files and a navigation app to ensure seamless route tracking. Each island offers multiple route options—shorter, longer, easier, or more challenging—so you can choose the best trail, based on your preferences. Even when trail running with a guide, navigation support is always available.
