Already thinking about your next summer adventure? An awesome holiday that will make it truly unforgettable - filled with friends, fun and so many Instagrammable moments. If you're ready to lock in the summer of a lifetime, here's why you need to know about Croatia party holidays. We count down the ten reasons to stop dreaming and start planning.

1) Endless islands worth exploring

With over 1,000 islands, islets and crags dotted along the Adriatic coastline, Croatia provides the dream dose of escapism you're summer requires. Even if you stayed the entire season, you wouldn't be able to see them all. TYW is the perfect way to see the best islands on offer - such as Hvar, Bol, Vis, Sipan, Mljet and Korcula - all on one of the most beautiful boats you'll ever see.

2) Party all night, if that's what you like

While this holiday destination is packed with many charms by day, it's Croatia's nightlife that really puts it on the party map. Bursting with beach bars and hidden clubs, pumping out tunes from some of the best DJs in the world, Croatia pulsates with the beat of summer. TYW includes dancing at some amazing nightclubs, including entry to the legendary Carpe Diem on our Original route, and the open-air club 585 on the Ultra route.

3) Revive your wellness

Croatia isn't just about partying. Those endless mornings of sunshine are the perfect setting for finding your balance, away from the demands of your everyday life. TYW's week-long adventures are designed to make sure you don't need another holiday after just to recover. Take everything at your own pace and find your perfect balance with a range of wellness activities. Take your pick from seaside yoga sessions, castle hikes and volleyball tournaments - or pull on your trainers and start every morning with the Run Club.

4) GoT to see them all

Calling all Game of Thrones fans! The TV show may be over but you can still visit Croatia's key filming locations on our Original route. Thankfully, these ancient palaces, monasteries and fortresses aren't going anywhere, so you can still geek out over these for years to come. BYO bell to ring and shout 'SHAME' every time you see your friends walking down a set of stairs.

5) Reconnect with your crew

There's nothing like sailing around Croatia for a week with your friends to make you remember why these people are your besties. It's an incredible way to make the most of summer together.

7) Dive into the Mediterranean

Living the yacht dream and hopping between islands means one thing really - endless days of swimming, diving and exploring Croatia's underwater delights. The warm, sapphire waters of the Adriatic coast are irresistible, so make sure you pack a serious selection of swimwear for your holiday here. From exploring hidden coves and caves to high-speed donut rides and wakeboarding, TYW is all about immersing yourself in the big blue.

8) Unforgettable sunsets

Film director Alfred Hitchcock once described Croatian sunsets as the most beautiful in the world - and we really can't disagree. Every evening will have you swooning with the romance of it all, especially with TYW's candlelit dinner at Fort George on Vis Island (followed by our Dockside Disco party) on our Original route. It's the perfect start to a night to remember.

9) See it all by boat

Set sail around the Adriatic Coast on your very own yacht - with a professional skipper and chef, of course. Take the stress out of exploring the delights Croatia by sailing with your accommodation wherever you go. TYW has a full range of yachts to suit you and your friends. Travelling solo?

10) Explore for yourself

Of course, you don't have to be on the water all the time. Go wild on two (or four) wheels as you explore the charms of Croatia's islands for yourself. Hire a Vespa on Vis, a VW beetle convertible on Bol or a scooter on Korcula and you'll be rewarded with hidden beaches, charming vineyards and jaw-dropping views.
