In the afternoon, visit the exotic botanical garden, home to hundreds of rare plant species. According to the island's history, it was created by the Meneghello family, who bought the arid surface of the island and, after three generations, transformed it into a Garden of Eden that offers visitors the chance to feel at one with the sea and nature. 

You can also visit Hvar by water taxi, a town close to Palmizana, famous for its mix of architectural styles, and for the importance that the Venetian aristocracy gave to this place. Stroll through its streets full of colourful marble and its many monuments. We'll have dinner on board and spend the night at the anchorage.

Day 3 (Monday) - Palmizana / Scedro 

After a good coffee breakfast, we'll sail to the island of Korčula, stopping off at Scedro, a small island with two bays that played an important role in the history of sailing by generously offering its protection to early navigators, so much so that the whole island was named after the Old Slavic adjective stedri (meaning 'generous').

We'll have lunch in this beautiful spot before sailing on to the town of Korčula, on the island of Korčula, famous because it is believed that Marco Polo was born here: you can visit a small stone house with a tower offering an incredible view, which is believed to be the house where he was born.

The island of Hvar is famous for its exceptionally fertile coastal plain and freshwater springs.

The ancient Greeks founded what is now Stari Grad, making it one of the oldest towns in Europe and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stari Grad means "old town".
