Croatia’s coastline is scattered with more than a thousand islands, and exploring them by private yacht is one of the great summer journeys in Europe.
Dubrovnik is the classic start, with its walls and old town. Split has a Roman palace at its heart, Hvar is lively and glamorous, and Vis and Korčula are quieter. Inland, the lakes of Plitvice and the vineyards of Istria are well worth the detour.
It combines well with Montenegro or Slovenia.
