The Guardian
of the Sea
From Global Oceans
to Hidden Bays.
The story of Adriatic Holiday is the story of a return home. Captain Ante Mazalin spent his early career navigating the vast oceans as a Chief Officer on massive cargo vessels (>3000 GT). For over a decade, the open sea was his office, instilling in him a rigorous discipline and respect for the water.
But the call of his hometown, Dubrovnik, was stronger. In 2015, Ante founded Adriatic Blue Dream d.o.o.—a family-owned business with a singular mission: to bring the highest standards of maritime safety to the intimate world of leisure cruising.
Today, he trades global shipping lanes for the secret coves of the Adriatic, applying his "Master Mariner" expertise to ensure your family is as safe as his own.

"Born in 1980 in the stone streets of Dubrovnik, the sea is not just my profession—it is my heritage."
Ante lives in Župa dubrovačka, where he raises his three children. His life has been linked to the maritime profession since his cadet days in 2000. When he is not navigating guests through the Kornati islands or docking in Hvar, you will find him diving or fishing in the very waters he charts.
He speaks fluent English and Italian, ensuring seamless communication with guests from around the world.
