Hi. I am wondering if anyone here has any experience with one of the naturist cruises offered by Katerina Cruise Lines in Croatia. For information on their naturist cruises in 2020, follow this link: https://www.katarina-line.com/cruises/naturist_cruises_from_split#!/

Croatia has been observing very strict lock downs during the CORONA pandemic, and they are now opening for European tourist at least in 2020. Aside from the question of whether it is really safe or smart to travel on a cruise during this pandemic (something I am carefully considering), I am wondering if people have any experience with this cruise line as I cannot find much about them on the internet.

By way of background, I am an American expat, who has been living in Germany for several years and recently moved to Prague (Czech Republic). Normally, I go on vacations with my boyfriend in the United States. He sometimes travels here, or I travel to the United States or someplace nearby (Caribbean or Mexico). We are gay mens, as well as dedicated naturists. So we often vacation with groups that are not specifically gay but are nudist/naturist. This year, unfortunately, our vacation was canceled because of the CORONAVIRUS. It is not possible for my boyfriend to travel here this summer, and it is not possible for me to travel to see him. For the first time in years, I find myself having to take my vacation alone. :-(

I am considering the naturist cruise with Katerina Line. They have offered me a very good price for a single cabin on their "Premium Superior" boat. And I can drive to Croatia if there are not any flights in August when this cruise takes place. I am a little nervous traveling on a cruise like this as a single, gay man. In my experience, gay couples are more often accepted in "straight" naturist resorts, while single men sometimes are still regarded with suspicious. But I have explained my situation with the cruise line, and they assure me that this will not be a problem.

So it sounds ideal (or as ideal as planning a cruise can be in these times). Still, if anyone has experience with this cruise line (nude, naturist or textile) I would be very interested in hearing from you. Thanks in advance to everyone and anyone who responds.
