With
just 30 outside cabins, the yacht-like Monet is the perfect size for
calling at the small island ports and coastal towns of Dalmatia.
With her shallow draft, Monet docks in places not available to
larger ships. Guests enjoy friendly, professional service from our
Croatian crew, excellent cuisine, educational shore excursions, and
all the amenities that you would expect to find aboard such an
elegant, small ship. From her classic teak decks one can take in the
splendid Medieval and Renaissance cities while enjoying the pleasure
of traveling without the hassles of packing and unpacking.
During
your stay aboard the Monet, you’ll see exquisite
scenery, enjoy folkloric performances and view the wonders of
centuries past. There’ll be time to wander the cobbled streets of
walled medieval towns, browse through attractive shops and swim in
the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. From the legendary
Renaissance splendors of Venice-“the Queen of the Adriatic”- to the
medieval walled city of Dubrovnik-“the Pearl of the Adriatic”-you’ll
discover several millennia of history along the shores of this
incredible azure sea. The Dalmatian coast alone has over 1,000
islands basking in the sun that, along with the coastal cities of
Croatia, offer a wealth of art and architecture. Korcula contains
reminders of the rule of the Venetians, while Split and Pula
respectively offer some of the best preserved Roman edifices in
existence: the massive Diocletian’s Palace and 20,000-seat
amphitheater designed to host gladiatorial contests. In Zadar, step
ashore and visit the exceptional Museum of Church Art or the
Archaeological Museum. Nature’s wonders can be appreciated in the
magnificent Krka waterfalls near Sibenik, and the fissured limestone
islands of the Kornati Archipelago |
