Island Hopping in Croatia + My Summer Style Essentials

Croatia is known for its beautiful coastline, turquoise blue water, and thriving island towns! After departing from Split we spent the rest of the day visiting the famous Blue Cave, the small town of Komiza, Stiniva Bay on Island Vis, the Green Cave and Hvar Town.

We had the absolute best day cruising on the water, enjoying the warm sunshine, and exploring all of the small towns and beaches along the Dalmatian Coast. This day was easily the highlight of our trip! I would do just about anything to go back there right now (I say to myself as I sit in my windowless office in hot and humid NYC…..)

We booked our trip through Portal Excursions (you can check them out here) and I could not have been happier with our day- we met some great people (there were about 10 of us on board), the boat was very spacious and comfortable, and we spent just enough time in each spot. Mediterranean cruises and yacht tours are also a very popular way to travel through Croatia. There are tons of different options out there so you can really customize your trip to make it exactly what you want. If I ever come back to Croatia I would definitely consider spending more time on the water!

Between swimming, walking through town and being on a boat all day, I needed a super versatile outfit to get me through the day. Keep scrolling to see my list of summer style essentials!

1.  The Basket Bag- Go round or super structured to complete any summer look!

Stiniva Bay on Island Vis

We at lunch at the one and only restaurant on this part of the island . If you guested that they only serve seafood then you are correct.  This is also where my obsession with Raddler’s/Limun beers began…There are sea urchins everywhere!!

2.  Lace -Up Sandals

Hvar could not have been more picturesque if it tried *insert heart eye emoji*

3.  Split Front Maxi Skirt- Makes for the perfect beach cover-up!

4.  Off-the-Shoulder Bikini (that also doubles as a crop top!)

We spent the next few days in Split (check out my last post to see what we did & where we went) before heading to King’s Landing err I mean Dubrovnik! Speaking of King’s Landing, who else is stoked for the GOT season premiere on Sunday!? Ready to have a little John Snow and Khaleesi back in my life! (If you haven’t figured it out already I’m just a little obsessed with Game of Thrones).

Life has been so hectic over the last couple weeks between catching up from vacation and trying to fit in all of our last-minute plans before Jordan headed back to school. But, I was finally able to shoot some new looks this weekend! Can’t wait to share with you guys 🙂

Happy Hump Day and enjoy the rest of your week!
