Specialist luxury small-ship operator Unforgettable Croatia has revealed that its 2025 season is 98% sold and sales for next year are also up.
The bumper 2025 season began in May and concludes in October, with 135 seven-night departures on offer.
Most itineraries sail along the Dalmatian Coast between Split and Dubrovnik, with ports of call including Trogir and Hvar, alongside lesser-known destinations such as Korcula, Vis and the national parks of Mljet and Krka.
The 2025 season also saw the launch of the seven-night ‘Signature Croatia Hidden Gems’ cruise, sailing from Split to Opatija.
Unforgettable Croatia’s 2026 season, which went on sale in April, is currently 23% sold, trading 15% ahead of last year, even with a 12% uplift in capacity. Next season includes more than 150 guaranteed departures across eight ships.
Bookings from multi-generational families and groups have seen particular growth in 2026, with a year-on-year increase of 34%.
Graham Carter, co-founder of Unforgettable Croatia, said: “These figures demonstrate that demand for intimate, small-ship cruising is stronger than ever. Travellers are seeking deeper, more authentic experiences, and our itineraries deliver just that. What’s more, the increase in multi-generational families and groups choosing to explore together highlights how small ships offer the ideal setting for shared memories”.
“Our travel agent partners have been instrumental in spreading the word and encouraging more of their clients to discover the magic of Croatia in a way that’s relaxed, immersive and perfectly tailored to their needs,” he added.
Unforgettable Croatia cruises include seven nights on a luxury yacht, breakfast and a three-course lunch onboard every day; two onboard dinners; complimentary tea, coffee and water; daily swim stops; wifi; excursions including expert-guided tours and private luxury arrival and departure transfers. Most evenings are spent ashore exploring local towns at leisure, offering guests the chance to taste local cuisine and soak up the atmosphere of Croatia’s picturesque ports.
