Our memorable day aboard Sea Cloud II unfolded under clear Adriatic skies. After a leisurely breakfast on deck, passengers were invited to climb halfway up the rigging with the help of the crew. Harnessed and guided, they rose above the deck, surrounded by sails billowing in the wind — a thrilling glimpse into traditional seamanship. Later, a guided tour took guests through the bridge, where officers explained navigation tools and weather charts; continuing down to the engine room, the quiet power behind the ship’s grace was revealed in polished pipes and humming machinery.

Lunch featured fresh seafood, homemade pasta, and chilled white wine, all served alfresco with views of the Croatian coastline. The afternoon brought time for reading or simply watching the sails catch the wind. As the sun began to set, the day closed with a candlelit dinner, followed by quiet conversations and the soft rhythm of the sea. It was a day balanced between elegance, discovery, and the timeless romance of sailing.
