There is no shortage of high-end beach clubs and romantic dining spots.
Enjoy the finer things in life in Hvar, a true haven of luxury, before heading to the medieval-walled peninsula of Korčula island.
Known for its stone stairways, Gothic-Renaissance cathedral and enchanting forests, you can head into the hills amongst pine woods, vineyards and olive groves to savour island specialities made from home produce.
Embark on a breath-taking sea kayak excursion paddling around the Korčula archipelago.
You will spend your concluding 3 nights in Dubrovnik, a beautiful city, dramatic and seductive.
