Cruise Croatia to launch new ship in 2025
Cruise Croatia is partnering with Croatia's Radež ship yard in Korcula for the construction of Aretis, a new 36-guest small luxury cruise ship debuting next spring.
Cruise Croatia contributed 20% investment in the newbuild, allowing exclusive use of Aretis through 2025, 2026 and 2027.
36-passenger capacity
The ship will feature 18 en-suite cabins measuring up to 160 sq ft. A restaurant and bar area will be on the upper deck, while the outside of the ship will have a sundeck and covered outdoor lounge area with sofas, sun loungers and a jacuzzi.
Dubrovnik and Split homeports
Aretis will sail 19 seven-night departures from Dubrovnik to Split, and vice versa, from June 7 to October 11, offering swim stops and be equipped with stand-up paddle boards, a sea kayak, floaties, goggles, snorkels and fins in various sizes. Complimentary Wi-Fi, tea, coffee and filtered water will be available.
For 2026, a full summer season is planned offering 24 departures.
Small-ship cruising
Graham Carter, CCO Cruise Croatia, said: 'Demand for luxury small-ship cruising is growing, as guests seek out holidays with a difference, exploring destinations that larger vessels simply cannot visit. Aretis will offer a luxurious and intimate cruise experience.'
Cruise Croatia, established in 2019, specialises in small ship seven-night cruises navigating the Dalmatian coast on departures from May to October annually.
