One of the most incredible European destinations with all the makers of the best vacation you could imagine! Sweet Skills and Big Mountain Bike Adventures are excited to offer this popular trip again in 2024 for our 4th year. \nJoin us on a private motor yacht as we sail the turquoise Adriatic Sea and explore Croatia’s Southern Dalmatian Islands by bike. It’s one of the most beautiful destinations you can boat to in Europe – bonus we get to ride our bikes along the way and hang out with a super fun crew of women! \nRide fun and scenic trails with local guides and Sweet Skills coaches.  Wander the historic harbour towns\, rustic bars\, and sights that we dock in. Time on the boat isn’t just about getting to our next amazing destination\, we’ll enjoy the on-board gourmet meals\, drinks on the deck\, views\, and swims in quiet coves. \nEvery day is a new island adventure. We usually depart the boat for a whole day which may include lunch in a small town partway through the ride or at the end\, swims in the sea and lots of stops for amazing photos. The riding starts each day with a climb as we leave the boat at the doc. There will be quite a few miles on quiet paved roads\, gravel double track\, then finishing with rocky descents including some switchbacks. Riding along the shoreline\, stopping for gelato and a swim and enjoying some history along the way are some of the daily highlights. \nSKILL & FITNESS LEVEL:\nSkill Level: I-A  Fitness Level 4+ *Ebikes available.
