The Royal Clipper, a majestic 5-masted full-rigged sailing ship and flagship of Star Clippers, is set to embark on captivating journeys through the Adriatic Sea starting June 2026. This unique vessel will navigate to less-visited ports and historical centers in Croatia, Montenegro, and Italy, allowing travelers to explore hidden gems.
The week-long “Croatia & Montenegro” itinerary will kick off from Venice every Saturday during the summer months. Ports of call include the historic towns of Šibenik and Vis in Croatia, both known for their rich heritage and avoidance of mass tourism, as well as the popular destinations of Rovinj and Dubrovnik. In Montenegro, the ship will dock in Kotor, a medieval town surrounded by stunning coastal landscapes.
With an impressive 42 sails covering 56,000 square feet, the Royal Clipper combines the allure of traditional tall ships with modern comforts. It can accommodate 227 passengers and features amenities such as spacious open decks, swimming pools, a watersport marina, elevated dining options, and spa facilities.
This initiative reflects Star Clippers’ dedication to immersive exploration along Europe’s coastlines, providing access to both iconic landmarks and off-the-beaten-path locations aboard a vessel that embodies the essence of classic sea travel.
