Tour Highlights
Complete a variety of coastal swims and crossings among roughly 500 islets and 79 islands just off Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast
Discover the uninhabited Adriatic islands of the Šibenik archipelago and seek out idyllic reefs and islets
Take in stunning lunar-like landscapes both above and below the water, with secret caves, grottoes and bays to uncover
Soak up the laidback atmosphere and traditional island culture of homely Prvic Luka
Around 500 islets and 79 islands are strewn parallel to Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast, inviting us on an island-hopping adventure of truly epic proportions. Based at the heart of this coastal region, among the islands, reefs, and islets of the Šibenik archipelago, this trip combines dramatic coastlines and lunar-like islands with superb water quality and stunning underwater topography.
Located in the Adriatic Sea, we are based on the island of Prvić in the geographic heart of the Dalmatian Coast. This is the perfect base from which to delve deep into the area's uninhabited islands, quiet fishing communities and laidback way of life.
During the trip, you will visit some of the most isolated islands in the Adriatic Sea, including Zlarin which has been inhabited for 700 years and where cars are still banned today. In fact, many of the islands visited on the tour are uninhabited and their natural beauty is left untouched. Secluded caves, coves and rocky beaches abound.
If you would like to explore this part of the world, but are looking for slightly shorter or longer swimming distances, please check out our Dalmatian Coast Short Swims - Croatia or Dalmatian Coast Long Swims - Croatia trips.

Reviews
I may be one of the older swimmers on a trip but my experience with Swimtrek never ceases to capture the youthful spirit within me. I hope to be swimming with Swimtrek well into my 80’s.
I absolutely loved my first SwimTrek trip! The other swimmers and our wonderful guides made it such a fun experience. The swimming conditions were ideal and the setting was beautiful!
SwimTrek is a challenge, a delight, an adventure. A holiday that leaves you with a massive sense of satisfaction and a bunch of brilliant global friends.
Our Dalmatian Coast SwimTrek was truly magical--the adventure of a lifetime! Our guides & crew were outstanding in every way! I am already looking forward to planning my next SwimTrek!
Everything about the trip was fantastic.
As a wild swimming newbie I had no idea what to expect or whether I would last the course. The wonderful guides and my fabulous co-swimmers gave me confidence and practical tips and made me laugh so much I forgot my fears.
It was worth every penny!
Book in now … you'll be well looked after, meet interesting and joyful people - finishing each day getting deeply relaxed
Very happy swimming in the most beautiful turquoise and deep blue waters at the Dalmatian Coast together with wonderful international co-swimmers and a big smile on everyone's face after each swim.
What a wonderful way to meet other adventurous, like- minded swimmers. It was a truly bonding experience and gave us all a sense of achievement. Lots of fun!
SwimTrek far exceeded my expectations, the guides were fantastic people who clearly love what they do. The Dalmatian islands water quality was excellent. I was surprised that I could swim about 3km on most days! Loved all of it!
We are so excited to have joined the SwimTrek family! Our first experience was so good we are going to do a SwimTrek trip every year from now on :-)
Our first experience of a SwimTrek holiday has been absolutely amazing. Our guides were so lovely and knowledgeable, they made us feel so safe and we then felt able to reach our potential!
