Itinerary
5 Nights Brac
4 Nights Korcula
5 Nights Hvar
UK to Brac (5 nights): You will first fly in to the city of Split. You can choose to spend time in Split exploring it’s historic old town, or head straight to your first island. You’ll either hop on a pre-arranged ferry or we can also take you there by speedboat. Whichever you choose, you’ll leave the city behind and head to the blissful world-class beaches on the island of Brac, just a short ferry ride from Split. Perhaps one of the most famous beaches in Brac, and indeed the whole of Croatia, is Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn) which is a stunning natural phenomenon. Located near the town of Bol, this unique beach stretches like a horn into the sea, constantly changing its shape with the currents and winds. It is a perfect spot for sunbathing, swimming, and water sports. Another favourite is Lovrecina Bay, which is tucked away on the northern coast of Brac, and is ideal for families with children, boasting shallow waters and peaceful surroundings. Supetar is the main town on Brac, with a lovely horseshoe-shaped bay right next to the town’s promenade and has some fabulous restaurants and tavernas lining its shores – a favourite spot for locals and visitors alike. Other charming coastal towns to explore on the island include Milna a laid-back town nestled in a picturesque bay, and Postira an old maritime town with narrow streets. A visit to Vidova Gora, in the centre of the island, and the highest peak on the Adriatic islands, is a must. On the way up, you’ll walk through fragrant pine forests before being rewarded with the most wonderful view at the top, including the Zlatni Rat beach below and a wonderful panorama of the nearby islands amidst the shimmering sea.
Brac to Korcula (4 nights): From one idyllic island to the next, your next stop is the captivating Korcula, which you’ll get to via ferry. Korcula is an island steeped in history and legend and is believed to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. It has a fascinating medieval Old Town with narrow cobblestone streets and elegant Venetian-style buildings. However, if it’s stunning beaches you’re looking for, you won’t be disappointed. The beaches in Korcula are generally fairly secluded with an intimate feel, making them perfect for those seeking a quiet, relaxed beach experience. Among the best are Vela Przina in Lumbarda, a sandy beach ideal for families and sunbathers, and Pupnatska Luka, a sheltered bay surrounded by rocky cliffs. You can also head to secluded coves such as Bacva and Samograd and enjoy swimming, snorkelling, or simply soaking up the sun’s rays. Korcula is renowned for its winemaking heritage and has some excellent local wines. There a many wine tours you can enjoy, amidst the lush surroundings and breath-taking coastal views where you can learn about the winemaking traditions and sample the local wines, including Grk and Pošip.
Korcula to Hvar (5 nights): For your final stop, you’ll hop on a ferry to the glamourous island of Hvar, an island gem in the Adriatic Sea, that boasts some of the clearest turquoise-green waters you’ll ever come across. The island offers an intriguing juxtaposition of quiet cove beaches, unassuming fishing bays and lavender fields with a distinctly upscale, glamourous side, and in the summer, the harbour comes alive with visiting luxury yachts, parties and exclusive events. The heart of Hvar is Hvar Town, located on the southwestern coast of the island where you’ll find narrow cobblestone streets, ancient buildings, and elegant squares. The Town Square, also known as St. Stephen’s Square, is surrounded by historic landmarks, including the Cathedral of St. Stephen, a beautiful Renaissance cathedral with an impressive bell tower. A visit to Hvar wouldn’t be complete without exploring the surrounding islands. The Pakleni Islands, a small archipelago just off Hvar’s coast, offer a perfect opportunity for boating, swimming, snorkelling and exploring the hidden coves. The Blue Cave, located on the nearby island of Biševo, is a definite must-see and is known as one of Croatia’s most enchanting natural wonders with its mesmerising blue glow that creates a magical experience as the reflected light illuminates the entire cave with an ethereal turquoise hue.
Hvar to UK: You’ll be transferred by boat back to Split, either by ferry or you can upgrade to a speedboat which will take you direct to the airport, from where you will then fly home to the UK

We haven’t been on our trip yet but based purely on the experience of booking the trip we are pleased with the result. It started with a bit of a hiccup as we spoke to a member of staff who never came back to us but when we reached back out again we were placed in the hands of Andy who has helped us book a 2 week trip to India including the golden triangle and then a few days on the beach. Andy was very patient with us with our changes to our tailor made holiday, even when we asked him to explore different areas only to revert back to the original plan. He also recommended moving the holiday back one week which created a saving of over £700 which meant we could upgrade the room for our beach stay in Goa. Andy was also available on weekends if we wanted to speak and regularly picked up the phone as opposed to keeping it to purely email dialogue. Hopefully the holiday will be amazing but based on the booking experience I would recommend eShores if you’re looking to book a tailor made holiday

We have booked two big holidays this year for a group of 8 and a group of 10, Rachel has coordinated our holidays with the utmost excellence, during the consultation we changed countires hotels and even flights but it did not phase Rachel one bit. Exceeds customer expectations by helping advising and supporting throughout the holiday. We are off to Thailand and Dubai in August and then followed by India and Thailand in November, I have rang emailed Rachel many times during the booking and I got very prompt responses even on her days off. Rachel is a credit to EShores and EShores is setting standards regarding customer focus.
