Bok, friend! Welcome aboard
Picture this: you wake up on a catamaran, jump straight into crystal-clear water, and breakfast is already waiting. That's every morning on this vegan Croatia tour, and I can't wait to share it with you.
Our skipper and hostess sail us from Dubrovnik to Split, stopping at Mljet, Korčula, Vis and Hvar. Our hostess prepares all breakfasts and most lunches on board, so you never have to hunt for a vegan option between swims.
On land, we'll explore Old Towns, ride ATVs through Vis's hidden tunnels, make lavender treasures with a local family on Hvar, and end with a vegan cooking class near Split. You show up hungry (and in your swimsuit). I'll handle the rest.

Meet your host
Hi, I'm Ashley, founder of Vegan Ventures! What started in 2020 as a media page became a multi-media business and resource for the best vegan eats and experiences. I’ve gotten to share incredible foods, businesses, people, travel, and more over the years but I wanted to continue to make vegan travel easier. So I started doing tours in 2025 as a way to continue to make an impact but in a more intimate way. These tours are a way to support international communities and businesses, create connection and memories that will last a lifetime!
On these tours, you're our guest. I'll be with you every step leading up to the tour as well as from the welcome dinner to the farewell cooking class in Split.
