Hop aboard your private boat and settle into a comfortable spot on deck. As your boat slips away from land, ask your skipper any questions you have; the beauty of a private tour is that the commentary is tailored to your interests.

Mljet Island is the highly lush and forested island of Croatia, located in the Adriatic Sea. Its Western cape has the Mljet National Park where spectacular saltwater lakes and pine forests provide incredible natural scenery. On the nearby small island of Mary, and not very far from the south shore, there is the Benedictine monastery and St. Mary's church.

This tranquil, unspoiled oasis boasts saltwater lakes, pine forests, and lush flora. Here, you will have the opportunity to visit the famous cave where the fabled Odysseus found shelter after surviving a shipwreck. Legend has it he was seduced by the nymph Calypso who kept him on the island for several years. True or not, this island is today a paradise for those who enjoy untouched nature and absolute tranquility.

Then, re-board your boat and continue around the island and visit the lakes or the Benedictine monastery at your own expense. Alternatively, stroll along the charming harbor, lined with fishing boats and gleaming yachts, before meeting back up with your skipper for a traditional lunch at a local restaurant of your choice (own expense).

After lunch, you will head back to Dubrovnik, where your tour concludes.
