The town of Rab sits on a narrow sliver of land protruding towards the mainland, bounded by ancient city walls and recognizable by four church towers that form the familiar outline, depicting Rab as a ship with four masts: bell tower of the church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary – the cathedral, the bell tower of the church of St. John the Evangelist (located near the ruins of the Church), the belfry of the church of St. Andrew the Apostle and the bell tower of the church of St. Justine.

Morning departure to Mali Lošinj, passing by islands Ilovik, Silba, Olib. Upon arrival our English speaking guide will walk us through Mali Lošinj, the largest town on Lošinj Island. Situated on top of a long natural harbour and surrounded by graceful, gently weathered Mediterranean town houses and green hills, the town straddles both coasts on the narrowest section of the island. After city tour we`ll visit Museum of Apoxyomenos. The Museum is a unique archaeological and architectural cultural institution in the region and it is entirely dedicated to only one exhibit – the bronze statue of a young athlete, the Apoxyomenos. The statue was discovered in 1997 by a Belgian tourist at the depth of 45 m. In 1999, it was taken out of the sea where it spent nearly two millennia. The Museum of Apoxyomenos tells the original story of an athlete of perfect physical proportions, a piece of art that is impressive in its wholeness and beauty of composition.

The bronze statue of Apoxyomenos is from the time of Greek civilization, dates to either 2nd or 1st c. B.C., and its name stems from Greek term for an athlete that is cleaning his body from oil, sweat, and sand after exercise or competition. The Lošinj athlete depicts the moment when he’s cleaning his scraper. The statue is entirely preserved, only missing a little finger of the left hand, eyes, and the scraper, while the right foot was still attached to the original bronze base. This museum is created especially for this beautiful antique sculpture and it has become Lošinj’s symbol and trademark. The Apoxyomenos’ timeless beauty, his unusual and mysterious story, and a distinctive museum setting haven’t left anyone unimpressed! Overnight in Mali Lošinj.

Morning departure to Telašćica Nature Park with a swim stop along the way. The area of Nature Park Telašćica is a very contrasted area with quiet and peaceful beaches and a laid down coastline on one side, and wild and steep cliffs on the other, an area of Aleppo pine and holm oak forests on one side, and barren karst on the other, an area of cultivated fields covered in vineyards and olive groves, but also an area of degraded forms of vegetation covering dry habitats. Due to its extreme beauty, richness and importance, this bay surrounded by 13 islands and islets, together with 6 islets inside the bay itself, was proclaimed a Nature Park in 1988.

Telašćica acquired the status of a protected area already in 1980 because of its valuable flora and fauna, geological and geomorphological phenomena, versatile sea bottom life, and interesting archaeological heritage. This evening in the heart of the Nature Park and in the silence of a beautiful cove we will have gala Captain`s dinner on board. Overnight in Telašćica.

 

Day 7 - Kornati - Primošten

Breakfast , Lunch

invictus.jpg kornati from sky croatia holidays invictus.jpg primosten view croatia holidays

Today is the day to enjoy. After breakfast we depart for a pleasant cruise passing by the middle of Kornati archipelago, which is a labyrinth of stone, with eighty nine islands, islets and rocks in the sea. It is the most indented island group in the Mediterranean. Whether you look at the Kornati Islands from the air, from the sea, or from sightseeing points on the islands, the view is equally impressive – and yet different to the eye every single time. The landscapes are perhaps at their most impressive on the part of the archipelago facing the open sea, where cliffs rise high above the sea surface. The visitors are bound to be at least as strongly visually impressed by the open, horizontal stone layers of some islands, leaving the impression of neatly placed stone steps leading all the way to the top of the island.

With a swim stop on the way we`ll cruise to Primošten. Primošten is a small town located between Šibenik and Split. The old town is situated on a small island which is connected with the mainland. Primošten attracts tourists with its interesting architecture, beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters. In the past, the population was oriented towards cultivation of grapevines, olives, fishing and today it is mostly oriented to tourism. Once an island, Primošten has preserved the atmosphere and all the architectural features of a medieval Mediterranean fishing village. Upon arrival you will have rest of the evening free to enjoy in your last wonderful evening on this journey and to have inmate farewell dinner on your own. Overnight in Primošten.
