An intimate journey on the Adriatic with Sunny Dawn Johnston

May 22 – 29, 2027  ·  Sibenik to Dubrovnik  ·  30 Guests Only

The Experience

Croatia doesn’t just show you beauty.
It wakes something up in you.

There is something ancient and alive about the Adriatic. The water is impossibly blue. The stone cities are thousands of years old. The air is warm and unhurried. And when you arrive by private yacht – sailing from island to island, anchored in coves most people will never find – you begin to understand what it means to truly arrive somewhere.

This is not a tour. It’s not a retreat in a ballroom. It’s 30 people, one private yacht, and seven days of shared experience on some of the most sacred and stunning waters in the world. What happens when a group of intentional, spiritually curious people sails together? Something shifts. In the water, in the conversations, in you.

That’s the power of this. Not just where we’re going – but who we become when we go there together.

Why This Opportunity Is Different

Truly Private

This is a fully chartered vessel – not a group cabin on a shared cruise. The entire yacht. Just us. That changes everything.

30 Guests Only

When the group is this small and the intention is this clear, the connections that form are not ordinary. This is a rare circle, friends.

Once. That’s It.

This journey is happening once. There is no next year’s version. When these 30 spots are filled, the door closes – and this particular experience will never exist again.

The Journey

Eight days. Seven islands.
One soul-shifting week.

Each stop unfolds naturally – there’s always space to explore, to rest, or to simply be present on the water. People compare today’s Croatia to Italy 250 years ago!!

Day One

Šibenik → Skradin

There’s something about arriving in Šibenik – one of the oldest native Croatian cities on the Adriatic – that slows your breath down in the best way. From there, you ease into Skradin, a tiny jewel of a town sitting at the mouth of Krka National Park. Waterfalls. Stillness. The kind of beauty that doesn’t ask anything of you. Just presence.

Day Two

Skradin → Split

Split is where ancient and alive collide in the most beautiful way. Diocletian’s Palace isn’t a ruin you visit – it’s a living neighborhood where people hang laundry and sip coffee inside 1,700-year-old walls. You’ll feel history breathing right alongside you here, friends.

Day Three

Split → Bol

Bol sits on the island of Brač, home to Zlatni Rat – one of the most photographed beaches in Europe, and for good reason. The pebbles are white, the water is impossibly clear, and the whole place has this unhurried quality that makes you wonder why you ever rushed through anything.

Day Four

Bol → Stari Grad

Stari Grad on the island of Hvar is one of the oldest towns in Europe – and it holds that age gently, not heavily. Lavender fields, stone streets, a harbor that glows gold at dusk. This is the kind of place that reminds you that slow is sacred.

Day Five

Stari Grad → Korčula

Legend says Marco Polo was born here. Whether or not that’s true, Korčula has the kind of quiet magic that makes you believe anything is possible. Its medieval old town sits on a small peninsula surrounded by water on three sides – dramatic, dreamy, and deeply soul-settling.

Day Six

Korčula → Pomena

Pomena is your exhale. Tucked into the island of Mljet – which is largely a national park — this is where you remember what rest actually feels like. Salt lakes, pine forests, and the Adriatic all around. Nowhere to be. Nothing to prove.

Day Seven

Pomena → Dubrovnik

And then there’s Dubrovnik. The Pearl of the Adriatic. The city that makes you stop mid-sentence just to look at it. Walking those ancient walls above the sea, you don’t just see beauty- you feel it in your chest. This is why we travel. This is what we’re really looking for.

Final Day – Saturday

Dubrovnik

We arrive in the Pearl of the Adriatic. Walk the city walls, take in the Old Town, and close out a journey that has quietly changed you. Here’s the thing – you won’t be the same person who boarded. And that’s exactly the point.

The Collective Experience

There is something that happens
when souls sail together.

On land, we rush. We check our phones. We carry the weight of our schedules and our responsibilities and our stories. On the water, something releases. The pace changes. The conversations go deeper. The laughter comes easier. You look out at the horizon and something inside you exhales.

This is what sailing together does. It strips away the noise and leaves only what’s real. And when you’re doing that alongside 29 other people who are equally committed to showing up fully – that’s not just a trip. That’s a turning point.

Purpose is presence. And for seven days on the Adriatic, presence is all there is.
