Croatia: who what where when and how!

The setting

Laganani – Hvar’s most exclusive stop off.
Established over 50 years ago and located on the beautiful island of St.Clement, Laganini Lounge Bar & Fish House is one of Croatia’s most exclusive holiday destinations – the perfect stop on your Croatia Yacht Charter, easily accessible by boat from Hvar. The white-washed cabanas with thatched roofs contrast the clear, cerulean water. Sunbathing in the cabanas, followed by a quick dip is the perfect way to spend your afternoon. The atmosphere really is unrivaled by any other destination in the Adriatic.

The food

Laganini is a prestigious stop-off for gourmet cuisine and resort holiday enthusiasts, boasting one of the most renowned lounge bar and a fabulous selection of exotic seafood, perfectly complimented by heavenly cocktails.
Sitting down the cabanas, you will be served a range of seafood dishes from local mouth-watering Adriatic tuna to our extraordinary wild Norwegian salmon, all prepared to perfection by award-winning chef Hrvoje Zirojevi?. Cocktail in hand and looking out to the water, there is no better place to stop off on the Croatian Coast.

The drinks

What better way to compliment your seafood extravaganza than with a refreshing drink in hand. Choose from their excellent selection of Champagnes, wines, gins, and cocktails. We love their combinations of Gins and Tonics, which can be personalised to suit your taste!

The BVI Bounces Back for 2020

Following the hurricane IRMA and MARIA, it is a well-known fact that most of the BVI’s infrastructure, boats and marinas were completely destroyed. Most charter companies had entire fleets either damaged or destroyed. However, the BVI has taken this nightmare as an opportunity to renovate and re-establish itself as the best place to charter in the Caribbean. The resilience of a tight-knit community, devoted holidaymakers and a great tourist board has allowed the BVI to be completely rejuvenated for 2020.

Forbes magazine reported that 75% of the territory’s marine berths and 37% of land accommodation reopened this Spring.  Airways and ferries have also opened back up to full capacity following the destruction with the hurricane.

Willy T’s comeback

The infamous William Thornton floating back is back on Norman Island for 2020. The new Willy T is rumored to be bigger than ever! As one of the most iconic floating bars in the world, the new Willy T was constructed in the US before returning to the BVI on May 10th.  The New boat is very similar to the original vessel and is already making its comeback for being renowned for parties, food, shots, and tattoos!

The Seychelles

The Seychelles are an archipelago of the Indian Ocean. There are over 100 islands, some volcanic, but most of them coralline. The largest island, where the capital rises, is Mahé.

In The Seychelles there are two sites declared a World Heritage from UNESCO: Aldabra, the largest coral atoll in the world and the Vallee de Mai on Praslin, a very ancient forest believed to be the Garden of Eden.

The Seychelles are famous all over the world for the amazing coral reef, the incomparable landscapes, the crystalline blue water, the white soft sand, and the incredible nature.

This paradise on earth is inhabited by rare and unique wildlife, that every year bring tourists from all over the world. The sea and land turtles are one of the biggest attractions.

The Aldabrachelys is a giant turtle that you will be able to see on The Aldabra Island. These incredible animals survived the evolutionary changes, thanks to the geographical isolation that protected them for millennia from modern predators.

Males can be up to 120 centimeters and weigh around 250 kg. Females can reach a little over 90 centimeters in length and weigh around 160 kilos. They are among the most long-lived animals on the planet.

Besides these incredible land creatures, you will also be able to see sea turtles if you go diving or snorkeling.

There are five different species of marine turtles living in the sea around the Seychelles islands. Alphonse Island, Astove Atoll, Cosmoledo Atoll, and Poivre Atoll are the main destinations where is possible to see these ancient animals in their natural habitat.

These unique animals are used to getting used to seeing humans, for this reason, if you are lucky you will not only be able to see them but also swim with them.

This is only one of the many incredible experiences that this place can offer. The people, the food and the magical atmosphere of this island will make you experience an incredible journey. Seychelle is definitely a place to visit once in a lifetime.
