Get behind the wheel of your open top roadster ! The roads bordering the Adriatic coast dive into the blue seawater. Push on the accelerator and head for Dubrovnik. This city, inscribed in the World Heritage List of Unesco, is hidden behind tall walls. You will overlook typical red tile houses before discovering its palaces, its churches and its fountains that will quench your cultural thirst.

Croatia, a journey along the Adriatic coast

After a few wheel spins, you arrive in Split, a touristic site that will make you step back in time. With its labyrinth of winding streets, its ramparts and small places with shaded arcades, under which the terrasses of restaurants expand, the historical center of this town is built on the ruins of a Roman palace. Having enjoyed a fresh seafood platter, you can continue your stroll.

A stopover in Hvar, the Saint-Tropez of Croatia

The private yacht on which your Bentley Continental navigates will only take an hour to moor in Hvar. Considered as one of the loveliest island of the Mediterranean, is it surrounded by an impressive forteress, and the panorama encompasses a series of small islands. Swept by the fragrances of jasmine and lavander, this local Saint-Tropez, with a Gothic architectural style, is nestled around a marina welcoming celebs who try and stay discrete. It's truly a postal card landscape where you will naturally run into your friends. Enjoy your stay, time goes by slowly under the Croatian sun…
