ISLAND HOPPING & HIKING
IN CROATIA

The Dalmatian coast and its many islands not only impress with their dreamlike nature, the many rocky bays, long coastal roads and countless olive groves; the small ports, lively towns and original villages enchant with their beautiful architecture and small charming stores and squares.

We explore these varied landscapes and idyllic places during our hiking trip! Our boat gives us the flexibility we need to reach the most beautiful bays and discover the diverse island world from there during our hikes.

Our boat

Our boat, the NOVI DAN, is an elegant 27-meter-long gulet that combines the authentic flair of classic wooden ships with modern comfort. The ship can accommodate approx. 26 guests in fully air-conditioned double and alternatively triple cabins, each with its own WC and bathroom – a perfect ship for this hiking trip!

THE TERRITORY
THE ISLANDS OF DALMATIA

The Croatian island world is the ideal destination for relaxed hiking tours: Large and small bays, sheltered coastal sections, varied hiking trails, a multitude of historic port towns and original villages make this hiking tour in Croatia – in short – a unique experience!

Our hikes – led and accompanied by a hiking guide from Naturfreunde Austria – take us across the islands of Brač, Hvar and Korčula. Our boat takes us to the starting points of our hikes – a remote bay or a small harbor town; we explore a part of the island and at the end of our hikes, our boat is already waiting to take us back on board a few bays further on.

BOOKING INFORMATION

The boat for the HIKING Trip in Croatia:

The boat, the NOVI DAN, hasspacious deck areas that invite you to sunbathe, relax and enjoy the view. On the main deck there is a comfortable dining area and a saloon with a fully equipped bar; there is plenty of space here for communal meals and sociable evenings. The ship’s crew of five looks after our well-being on board. The captain, cook, sailor and two waiters do everything in their power to fulfill our wishes on board.

Catering on board:

The NOVI DAN offers traditional Croatian cuisine with a wide variety of dishes. The diverse selection of freshly prepared, local specialties leaves nothing to be desired. The boat’s own bar provides us with a generous selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks – so we are well catered for during our hiking trip.

Cabin description:

There are double cabins below deck. These can be reached via a corridor inside the boat. These lower deck cabins have their own bathroom with shower/WC and are of course equipped with individually adjustable air conditioning.

On the upper deck of the NOVI DAN there are double and twin outside cabins, which, by the way, are accessible directly from the boat’s deck. As a result, they all offer an unobstructed view of the sea, have their own bathroom with a shower and toilet, and are also equipped with individually controlled air conditioning.

In addition to the double and twin cabins, on the upper deck there are also triple outside cabins, which are also accessible directly from the boat’s deck and all offer an unobstructed view of the sea. Like all other cabins, these also have a private bathroom with a shower and toilet and are each equipped with individually controlled air conditioning.

I’m not a big sports freak – is an Island Hopping Trip @ THE SUP WEEK the right vacation for me anyways?2021-11-25T13:00:56+00:00

Our Island Hopping Trips @ THE SUP WEEK are no classic sport trips where it’s all about exercise and sport – all boats have large sun decks where you can easily relax all day if you feel like it! The entire sports program is, of course, not mandatory, but only an offer from us; those who prefer to go for a walk on land or sit together with friends until late at night and watch the sea will get their money’s worth at THE SUP WEEK as well.

What is the catering like on board the Island Hopping trips?2026-01-04T18:11:28+00:00

Catering on THE SUP WEEK Island Hopping trips is provided by the boat’s crew. The kitchen staff prepare a high-quality and varied selection of local dishes for us.

Are meals included in the price of the Island Hopping trips?2026-01-04T18:10:12+00:00

Breakfast, lunch and three dinners are included daily in the price of THE SUP WEEK Island Hopping trips.

The remaining four evenings during our Island Hopping trip we will be moored in the harbor of a city where you can then go out to eat in a restaurant of your choice – the choice of restaurants and bars is large, so there should be something to suit everyone’s taste! These evenings ashore are not included in the travel price.

How much luggage can I bring with me on board?2024-05-06T19:01:48+00:00

Basically, there are no restrictions on the luggage you can bring on our THE SUP WEEK trips.

However, you should bear in mind that the storage space in the cabins is limited and that there are no storage rooms or similar on the boats. That’s why it’s best to avoid suitcases (especially hard-cover suitcases are completely out of place here) and rather bring a duffel or flexible travel bag.

Please also keep in mind that our trips require more casual clothing and that you certainly don’t need to bring evening wear.

Before departure, we also send out a packing list to all guests so that you can get an overview of the recommended clothing and other useful items for your luggage.

Can I bring my own SUP board to my THE SUP WEEK trip?2026-01-04T18:09:20+00:00

You are welcome to bring your own SUP board to your THE SUP WEEK trip; however, only inflatable boards (iSUPs) are allowed on our trips.

If you decide to bring your own board, please also bring your own paddle and a board leash. We will then store your equipment with our rental boards on board of our boat for you.

Alternatively, you can also hire a SUP board from us; the hire fee is € 89.00 or € 99.00 for the whole week. In this case we will provide you with an iSUP incl. paddle and board leash, so you don’t have to worry about anything here. You can let us know directly when booking or at a later date if you would like to rent a SUP board from us. You will then receive the rental board on arrival on board.

Please bring the following equipment if you would like to take part in our SUP fari tours:

Why do I need a rental GPS tracking device?2024-05-06T18:58:08+00:00

The GPS tracking device is obligatory and must be booked if you would like to take part in our SUP-Fari tours during our Island Hopping trips.

It’s all about your safety – thanks to the GPS tracking device, we can determine your exact location at any time during the tour and come tosupport you at any time if you need assistance; we always have our safety speedboat with its own skipper with us.

You can book a GPS tracking device directly with your booking, the rental fee is € 45.00. However, you can also decide to rent a device at a later date before the trip and simply let us know by e-mail.

If you don’t want to paddle on all SUP fari tours, you can of course also share a device with your travel partner; in this case, the two of you can rent just one device and then take turns paddling on the tours.
