Travelling with bike and barge in Croatia is like paradise: White sails over deep-blue, beautifully clear water of the Mediterranean Sea. Dense evergreen oaks and pine trees line the banks and your motor sailer takes you from island to island. Croatia is a holidaymaker's paradise. On this tour you will discover forgotten bays, perfect for diving into from your sailing boat. Together with your tour guide you will explore the winding paths along the South Dalmatian coast on your bike. You are served tasty, regional dishes and spend the evenings in the great outdoors, underneath star-filled skies.
You can book this holiday in South Dalmatia in the standard category on our motor sailing boats, the Aneta and Orkan. You'll find more luxury in the premium category on the Amore motor sailing boat. If you want to treat yourself to a higher category, then deluxe motor yachts, the Relax and Mysic are the right boats for you!

Your cruisers MS Aneta, MS Orkan, MS Amore, MY Relax and MY Mystic
The man who built the MS Aneta was inspired by the ideas of his cruise guests, and even integrated them into the boat plans. During the renovation work, the wishes of the guests were also a priority. There is a warm welcoming holiday atmosphere on this lovely boat, from which you can hop into the turquoise wet of the Mediterranean whenever it is at anchor.
The Vuković family has bought the MS Orkan in autumn 2013. Captain Ante makes sure that all his guests spend an unforgettable holiday on his boat. It has a capacity of only 20 passengers and there is a familiar atmosphere on board. Make yourself comfortable and unwind – on one of the deck chairs in the sun or in the air conditioned saloon.
Small but nice, that's how the premium ship MS Amore presents itself to its guests. Built in 2011, the small space miracle offers all the amenities on three passenger decks that make a cruise off the Dalmatian coast so special. Enjoy the view of the sea and the Croatian islands from one of the deck chairs on the sun deck.
Since 2018 Captain Karlo steers the motor yacht Relax through the Croatian coastal waters. On the large sundeck there is more than enough space to relax on the sun loungers and re-energize before the next bike tour. And if you like to cool off, just dive from the bathing platform at the stern of the ship into the crystal-clear waves of the Mediterranean.
Since 2015, the motor yacht Mystic has been thrilling its guests off the coast of Dalmatia. Comfortable cabins on two passenger decks, a spacious salon and an extensive sun deck are just as much part of the ship's equipment as a bathing platform at the stern that encourages spontaneous dives into the sea.
