What you'll do

The Dalmatia region in Croatia is a dreamland for both climbers and sailors. Seventy-nine islands (and an infinite number of islets) run parallel to the coast, among which Brač, Pag, and Hvar are the largest. There is everything from bouldering, to short well-bolted sport routes, super long sport and trad routes, to deep water soloing. Icio and Marina's climbing and sailing experiences - including climbing stories of first ascents around the world, and cross-continental sailing journeys - will entertain you throughout the whole trip.It is an expedition, not a 5* holiday: get ready to help out in the sailing maneuvers and climb in really off-the-beaten-track crags!


Itinerary

Arrive in Milna, get familiar with your sailing home-for-the-week and meet Icio, Marina, and your climbing mates! Don't forget to set your alarm clock for the next day. Check-in is on Sunday at 3 PM.
Off sailing! You will arrive in Hvar and spend the day climbing at Cliffbase, a private crag personally bolted by its owner. The day ends with a fish-based dinner at the port restaurant and a visit to its sunken wine cellar!
An early morning climb at Cliffbase and setting sail again! Directions: A local bay on the other side of the island. This afternoon is to chill - you can have a nice swim, some rest, or sup your way through the surrounding coves.
You know how it goes: wake up at dawn and off to the next adventure! You will sail towards Stari Grad, rent a car and get to the crag. You'll climb in the afternoon, and as soon as you get off the crag, you can jump in the water of a nice bay nearby.
In case you have not got enough of it yet, you will spend the morning climbing around Stari Grad, in some island crags! You will leave by midday, and after a few hours of sailing, you will get to another bay where you can rest.
It is your last day of climbing, and you want to get the most out of it! You will sail back to Milna in the early morning and climb some inland crags nearby. If you feel like it, a special dinner awaits you at the port restaurant: the traditional Croatian peka.
It is time to go back home - yes, already! Check-out is on Saturday by 10 AM.

Great trip in Croatia. Beautiful locations. Knowledgeable and encouraging hosts.

Più che una vacanza direi un’esperienza di vita, di quelle che fanno bene al cuore, all’anima e che ti segnano nel profondo in maniera indelebile. Icio e Marina sono due persone stupende e la “Macrì Boat” lo è ancora di più. Solo un’unica pecca, crea dipendenza 😅

Such an amazing trip!! It was very well thought out, the first day of climbing was a good introduction. It felt like it was Icio’s way of assessing our climbing skills to then tailor the rest of the climbing trip accordingly. It was also so much fun meeting other people and listening to Marina and Icio’s stories. We learned a lot and ate good Italian food!

Bellissima esperienza!

I booked two climbing trips through Mapo Tapo so far - one in Croatia and in Sicily. Both have been fantastic. Mapo Tapo’s partner guides are incredibly knowledgeable about their local crags, have amazing climbing experiences to share and best of all, have been great hosts, whether it’s on a sailing boat or in a climbing lodge in the country side
