One of the wildest moments of CZM every year.
An afternoon on a big party boat cruising between islands, with DJs, professional sound, dancing on deck, jumps into the sea, drinks, snacks, inflatable water toys, and a lot of summer energy.
And this one is even more special — we celebrate Guido’s birthday together on the boat.
Some people stay dancing most of the trip. Others spend more time swimming, talking, relaxing on the upper deck, or just enjoying the sea and the view.
By the end of the day, everybody somehow feels happy, exhausted, sun kissed, and much closer to each other than before.
Definitely one of those memories people keep talking about long after the event is over.
Croatia is famous for waterfalls. But most people only see the large touristic places — beautiful, but crowded and full of restrictions.
We go to a hidden natural location that even many Croatians do not know about. Very often our group is totally alone there.
Already on the way down, you get incredible panoramic views over the river and waterfalls below. And once you arrive, you can actually get close to the water, swim there, sit on the rocks, and really experience the place instead of only looking at it from far away.
The waterfall itself is around 60 meters high. Standing close to it and hearing the water echo through the canyon feels incredibly powerful.
Many participants told us afterwards this became one of the strongest memories of their Croatia trip. And honestly, that is exactly why we do not publicly share the location.
Our speedboat adventure takes you to a secret island with a sandy beach and a beach bar called Hakuna Matata.
People spend the day swimming, snorkeling, dancing, drinking cocktails, relaxing on the beach, playing games together, and simply enjoying summer.
Last year, one group randomly started playing Uno together at the beach bar for hours while others danced or swam nearby. That’s very much the energy of this trip.
And on the way back, we always stop in an area where dolphins often appear around the boats.
Sometimes they come very close. Sometimes they jump around the boats. Sometimes you hear them before you see them.
And when it happens, people usually just stare in disbelief with huge smiles on their faces, quietly looking at each other like: “Did you just see that?”
For some participants, it honestly felt almost spiritual.
