Croatia sailing routes - any suggestions?

[Jaguar steve]

Have a bareboat charter based in Trogir for 1 week coming up.

Looks like we have choices regarding where to go, ranging from following the charter company suggested routes, going up north allong the mainland coast and round the islands, doing the same but south of Trogir or just winging it and going wherever the wind and weather lets us.

Anybody been? Any thoughts on where to go and where to avoid or alternative route suggestions? Google comes up with pretty much bog standard tourist advice for the country and I suspect the charter company is playing it safe too as some of the daily legs on their routes are only 10-12nm long.

Personally I dislike marina hopping and much prefer quiet overnight anchorages so any suggestions welcome.

Cheers Chaps

Been from Cres Island down to Split through the cornati islands. Can highly recommend that route would be up north from your starting position.

Although I've not sailed it, the Elafiti Islands would be on the list for me, then a stop in Dubrovnik, Cavtat and on to the bay of Kotor which is simply beautiful.

I have not, but think I have squirrelled away somewhere a bunch of anchorages and recommendations.
Will dig about

That would be great - cheers
