“Me and my family loved every minute!

Una cooked amazing food, was always on hand with a cold drink ready or a cup of tea/coffee in the morning! She was always happy and smiling, found us the best restaurants for the evenings and booked whatever we needed!

Antonio was our captain for this voyage and was equally brilliant, both were energetic and happy, they were part of our family for the full adventure!

They had great knowledge of where to go to avoid the crowds, secluded bays to wake up in and enjoy the morning peace! The children loved all the water toys and we swam in the best waters!

We were very sad to leave and cannot wait for next year to do it all again!

Thank you guys so much!”

“The crew was very accommodating and my family had a wonderful time. Croatia is beautiful and being in the sailboat allowed us to escape the crowds if we wanted. Chef Oona was delightful and her food was as good as any restaurant; she even played cards with the girls.

Thank you for the experience. “

Benjamin Bushnell

We had the most wonderful time on our catamaran with iven & una..

Sailing Guide

A sailing excursion on a catamaran in Croatia provides an unmatched sense of luxury, independence, and closeness to the ocean. Croatia offers the ideal setting for an amazing sailing vacation with its clear waters, plenty of islands, and rich cultural legacy. In order to ensure a smooth and pleasurable trip, this guide attempts to walk you through all the necessary steps of organising, getting ready, and enjoying a catamaran charter in Croatia.

Overview of Croatian Catamaran Sailing

The allure of charter yachts.

Due to their dual hull shape, catamarans have improved stability, roomy living quarters, and minimal drafts that make it possible to get up close and personal with normally inaccessible beaches and coves. In addition to offering plenty of room for entertainment and relaxation, a catamaran’s distinctive design makes it a great option for romantic getaways, families, and groups of friends.

Why Should You Take a Sailing Vacation in Croatia?

Almost a thousand islands dot Croatia’s coastline, and each one has a unique charm and legend. Sailing in Croatia offers a rich tapestry of experiences, from well-known gems like Hvar and Korčula to hidden paradises just waiting to be found. Croatia is a top sailing destination because of the pristine Adriatic waters, consistent winds, and rich nautical history of the nation.

Organising Your Charter Catamaran

Choosing the proper catamaran.

Selecting the ideal catamaran requires taking into account the size of your group, the amount of luxury you want, and any special requirements you may have, including water toys, onboard amenities, and en suite bathrooms. You can discover the ideal catamaran for sailing trip by looking through a comprehensive fleet.

Making a Charter Reservation

It’s important to know how to book a catamaran . In order to reserve your desired vessel and dates, it is advisable to book in advance, particularly during busy seasons. Gaining familiarity with the entire booking process—from inquiry to confirmation—will guarantee a seamless sailing experience.

Getting Around Payment Processes

While simple, the payment procedure for a Croatian catamaran charter needs careful attention to detail. Budgeting for your vacation requires knowing what’s included in the charter fee and what can be extra. Deposits and final payments are crucial.

Crucial Steps to Take Before Your Sailing Adventure

What to bring.

When packing for a vacation on a catamaran, comfort and usefulness must be balanced. Swimwear, sun protection, light-weight, quick-drying clothing, and soft luggage for convenient storage are necessities. You may get more advice on what to take on your catamaran holidays in Croatia from a comprehensive packing list.

Recognising the Charter’s Terms

Understanding the terms of charter will help you better manage your responsibilities and expectations. This entails being aware of the length of the charter, the yacht’s return policies, and any limitations or allowances that might impact your sailing experience.

Making the Most of Your Catamaran Sailing Adventure

Discovering the diverse islands of croatia.

Every Croatian island has a unique universe just waiting to be explored. You can have a more fulfilling experience by organising your itinerary to include a combination of popular and lesser-known islands, such as the verdant forests of Mljet and the mediaeval towns of Korčula. Think about looking for hidden gems that provide a peek of the Adriatic’s unspoiled splendour.

Customising Your Trip Plan

Even though sailing offers the greatest degree of freedom, some forward planning goes a long way. Whether you want to explore the area’s rich history, savour the cuisine, or discover the ideal quiet places to unwind, plan your itinerary around your interests. Being adaptable is essential; make space for impromptu excursions that emerge from suggestions from the locals or variations in the weather.

How to Handle and Navigate Your Catamaran

Learning to sail a catamaran.

Because of their reputation for stability and manoeuvrability, catamarans are perfect for both inexperienced sailors and seasoned skipper. On the other hand, becoming knowledgeable about the finer points of catamaran handling will boost your self-assurance and safety when cruising. Essential topics to cover include analysing wind patterns, anchoring techniques, and basic navigation skills.

Prioritising Safety: Optimal Navigation Techniques

The first priority should always be safety. Make certain that all passengers are instructed on safety measures, such as how to utilise fire extinguishers, life jackets, and emergency protocols. It’s imperative to regularly monitor water conditions and weather forecasts to prevent any unforeseen difficulties.

Accepting the Sailing Culture of Croatia

Getting involved in local communities.

Marinas and charming coastal villages that embrace sailors with open arms may be found all along the Croatian coast. Your sailing experience can be enhanced by interacting with locals, enjoying their hospitality, and honouring nautical customs. Don’t pass up the chance to eat at neighbourhood konobas, where you may sample authentic Croatian cuisine and freshly caught seafood from the Adriatic.

Respect for and consideration of the environment

It’s important to pay attention to the environment while you travel across Croatia’s stunning landscapes. Sailing can be made more environmentally friendly by reducing waste, honouring marine life, and following laws pertaining to protected areas. Your efforts guarantee that Croatia’s islands and waterways will remain unspoiled for upcoming sailing generations.

Finalising Your Charter Yacht

Last-day get ready.

The final day of your charter is important for planning and introspection. The most important things are to make sure the catamaran is returned in good shape, to abide by the terms of the charter , and to get ready to disembark. It’s also a time to pack up items, making sure nothing gets lost, and to begin planning how you’re going to tell the amazing stories of your travels.

Examining the Charter Experience

Your review of the charter company is very important to them, and it is also very helpful to other guests. By giving future sailors a glimpse into your positive and negative experiences, you may make the service even better. Remember to help others by leaving evaluations on websites or discussion boards.

Organising Your Upcoming Journey

Considering your navigating adventure.

It is both fulfilling and illuminating to take the time to think back on your travels, experiences, and memorable occasions. If you want to preserve a photo album or trip journal that perfectly captures the spirit of your Croatian sailing adventure, think about making one.

Keeping Up the Inspiration for Upcoming Boat Rides

One adventure comes to an end and a new one begins. Researching new places to go, like another yacht charter in Croatia or a trip to another country, will keep you motivated for sailing vacations in the future. You can further stoke your enthusiasm for the ocean by participating in online sailing communities and visiting yacht shows.

Constant Improvement and Learning

Every sailing excursion is an opportunity to learn, be it about cultural involvement, weather managing, or navigation. You can improve your abilities and self-assurance for upcoming charters by enrolling in sailing classes, learning more about boat care, or even obtaining certifications.

Bareboat vs. Crewed vs. Skippered Charters: Choosing Your Perfect Croatia Catamaran Adventure

Croatia’s stunning coastline beckons with its turquoise waters, inviting you to explore hidden coves, charming port towns, and dramatic landscapes. But when it comes to chartering a catamaran, how do you decide between bareboat, crewed, or skippered options? Here’s a breakdown to help you pick the experience that best suits your sailing expertise and desired level of relaxation:

Bareboat Charters: Captain Your Own Croatian Escape

• Perfect for: Experienced sailors with valid skipper licenses and a thirst for adventure.
• Experience: You’re in complete control! Navigate the coastline at your own pace, set your itinerary, and choose your destinations.
• Things to Consider: In-depth knowledge of sailing, Croatian waterways, and local regulations is essential. Bareboat charters often require additional certifications like VHF radio operation.

• Experience: Sit back and soak up the scenery! A professional skipper will handle all aspects of navigation, sail handling, and itinerary planning. You can also enjoy the services of an onboard chef who will whip up delicious meals throughout your trip.
• Things to Consider: While crewed charters offer the ultimate in relaxation, they naturally come with a higher price tag compared to bareboat options.
• Benefits: Complete relaxation and pampering. Leave the sailing duties to the experts and focus on creating unforgettable memories with your loved ones. Explore hidden gems and picturesque coves with the local knowledge of your experienced skipper.

Frequently Asked Questions about Catamaran Charters in Croatia

Planning your dream Croatia catamaran charter is an exciting adventure! To ensure a smooth and unforgettable experience, here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) with answers to guide you:

General Questions:

• What is the best time to visit Croatia for a catamaran charter? The sailing season in Croatia typically runs from April to October. The high season (July and August) boasts the best weather conditions with warm sunshine and calm seas, but it’s also the busiest and most expensive time to charter. Shoulder seasons (April-June and September-October) offer pleasant weather, smaller crowds, and potentially lower prices.
• What qualifications do I need to charter a catamaran in Croatia? For bareboat charters (where you captain the boat yourself), you’ll need a valid skipper license recognized in Croatia. Many licenses issued by other countries are acceptable, but always check with your chosen charter company beforehand. For crewed or skippered charters, no sailing experience is necessary – you can simply relax and enjoy the ride!
• How much does it cost to charter a catamaran in Croatia? The cost of your catamaran charter depends on several factors, including the size and model of the catamaran, the season, charter duration, and inclusions (bareboat, crewed, or skippered). Generally, expect to pay more for larger catamarans, peak season bookings, and crewed charters with additional services like meals prepared by a chef.

Catamaran Specific Questions:

• What are the advantages of catamarans over monohull sailboats? Catamarans offer superior stability due to their twin hulls, reducing heeling (tilting) and seasickness. They also boast spacious interiors with ample living areas, comfortable cabins, and expansive deck space for lounging and socializing. This makes them ideal for families, groups of friends, or anyone who desires increased comfort and space while sailing.
• Are catamarans difficult to sail? Catamarans generally handle differently than monohull sailboats due to their twin hulls. If you’re planning a bareboat charter, ensure you have the necessary qualifications and experience to handle a catamaran safely. SkipperCity offers catamarans of various sizes and complexity, and our team can advise you on the best model for your skill level. For a completely stress-free experience, opt for a crewed or skippered charter.
• What amenities are typically included on a catamaran charter? Amenities can vary depending on the charter company and chosen package. Generally, most charters include basic kitchen equipment, linens and towels, dinghy with outboard motor, and safety equipment. Bareboat charters may require additional provisioning, while crewed charters often include meals prepared by a chef, beverages, and water toys like kayaks or stand-up paddleboards. Always clarify inclusions and exclusions with your chosen charter company before booking.

SkipperCity can help answer any further questions you may have about Croatia catamaran charters. Contact our team of yachting experts today! We’ll guide you through the process, ensure you select the perfect catamaran for your needs, and help you create an unforgettable sailing adventure in Croatia.

Private Catamaran Cruise from Split

This private catamaran cruise is a unique experience to explore the wonderful Croatian coastline independently with a fully qualified captain. Set sail with you and your friends on an adventure on the high seas to discover the quaint islands off the coast of Croatia, whilst also enjoying the luxury of having your own space on your private catamaran.

How Does It Work?

This private 7-night cruise is for you and a group of your choice to enjoy. On board, there are 3 double cabins to accommodate 3 couples, plus one cabin to accommodate your captain. If you wish to bring any children with you, the catamaran can accommodate a further 2 residents, as there are 2 single beds that can be arranged in 2 of the cabins. Food and drink will be at your expense and it is important to note that the captain’s food is your responsibility. So, whether you adopt the captain as an additional member of your group including them on meals ashore and cooking for them on board or simply leaving them an allowance of €30 per day to cover his meals, this responsibility is yours.

A typical route could take you from Split to the islands of Brac, Hvar, Vis, Solt and finally back to Split, however, all route suggestions can be custom-made according to your preferences, wishes and of course, weather conditions! Your captain will help guide you through the glistening turquoise waters of the Adriatic and routes can be altered during the trip. Of course, the more sailing you do with the engine the more fuel you would use - as you can’t always rely on sail - so we generally recommend 3-4 hours of cruising per day. We have included €250 of fuel as part of the package, any extra would need to be covered at the end of the cruise, as it needs to be returned with a full tank.

We have 2 of the Lagoon brand catamarans to choose from - the 40 or the 42 - the latter having a little more space on board at 12.8 metres.

We can offer smaller or larger catamarans, sailing or motorboats, so do ask for more details if you require alternatives.

Check out the more information tab for the boat specifications and a guide to see the full list of inclusions.  

Our price is per person and based on 6 passengers.

Below is a typical example of an itinerary for a 7 day cruise. Route suggestions can be custom made according to your preferences and are subject to change due to weather conditions.

DAY 1: SPLIT

On your first day in Croatia, you should start it easy. Heading from ACI Marina Split and our warmest welcome, we suggest taking a short route to Milna, situated on Island Brač. Bay of Milna, also known as the bay of fishermen and sailors, is one of the most beautiful places on the island of Brač. It has a well-equipped ACI marina, a good place to spend the night in and it serves as an excellent protection from strong winds. If you don’t want to spend the night inside the marina, there are other places to drop anchor along the promenade, or in small bays near Milna. Bobovišća bay is another option for dropping an anchor.

DAY 2: ISLAND OF BRAC

The second day is when you speed up a bit. Leaving Milna and its historical stone houses, you would want to mix up things and stop in Bol. Famous mostly for Zlatni rat (Golden Horn) beach, Bol, thanks to the favourable winds that also shape Zlatni rat, offers you lots of adrenalin sports such as kitesurfing, water-skiing or diving. After all these sea activities, the best way to continue your adventure is an overnight visit to the small town Vrboska, on the island of Hvar. Regarded as „Little Venice“, Vrboska will steal your heart as you will fully understand the comparison with the Italian sister. The old, tightly packed houses, with elements of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque style, all inside the secluded bay is exactly what you need after the adrenalin you experienced before.

DAY 3: ISLAND OF HVAR

After Vrboska, you should definitely stay on Hvar, and head for the Hvar Town. Passing along the west cape of the island of Hvar called Pelegrin, wonderful sights, such as the bay of Pribinja, Jagodna and other areas of outstanding natural beauty will capture your attention, until you come to Hvar. Rich in monuments such as Hvar Cathedral, Arsenal and franciscan monastery and a real gem, the first civic theatre in Europe built in 1612, Hvar has a great cultural significance, and historical too. The Fortica Fortress is another example of the long history and architecture. Climb up on it and prey your eyes on the beautiful view of Pakleni islands, numerous bays and beaches. Exceptional gastro offer in Hvar can be tested in many restaurants: fresh fish, olive oil, and wine from the island vineyards will tingle your taste buds. Although Hvar is soaked in history, it is very much alive and synchronized with the modern world, as it is well-known for its parties and night life that attract young people from all over the world, among them lots of those coming on sailing boats and catamarans. For the ones longing for some peace and quiet, we suggest avoiding such nights on Hvar (usually on Sunday and Monday night). ACI marina Palmižana is an option to spend the night in. For more romantic setting, there are number of well-protected bays to provide shelter for the night. Be aware of the shallows and rocks under the surface.

DAY 4: ISLAND OF VIS

After a good nights sleep, it's time to set sails. We recommend sailing to the southern side of island Vis, towards the small islands of Budikovac and Ravnik. Before getting there, you can make a stop at Stončica bay with beautiful sandy beach and a lovely restaurant. Perfect time to get to know „picigin“, Dalmatian beach sport. Coming to the beautiful Budikovac you can sail into the lagoon where you will find an amazing pebble beach, but bear in mind that it's quite shallow and there are some underwater rocks on one side of the Laguna. The tour continues with the Green cave on Ravnik island, and Stiniva cove, nature's works of art. Winds and waves have carved in the amazing sights inside and outside of hard Dalmatian rock making astonishing color patterns. Keep your jaws and phones checked in order not to fall into the sea. Sailing on, you will reach the town of Komiža, small town with a long maritime tradition. We recommend spending the night here, enjoying the calm evening and tasting the Viška Pie, island specialty made of dough, sardines, tomato, olive oil, and onion. 

DAY 5: ISLAND OF VIS

Rise and shine! Early in the morning sail towards the island of Biševo and one of the most famous sights of the Adriatic, Modra špilja (the Blue Cave). Situated only five nautical miles south-west of Komiža, this nature's wonder is unforgettable. It is highly recommended to come early, before the tide, as the entrance can be flooded or, due to a high number of visitors in boats, jammed, making you wait for your turn even for a couple of hours. The main part of the cave is an open space under the sea which, in combination with the third opening in its roof, about three meters above the sea, creates the most extraordinary and beautiful light effect. After the wonderful “blue experience” you should start sailing along the northern side of the island, making short swimming stops in bays along the way. Heading up, you will come to the town of Vis, typical Dalmatian town, beautiful and full of history. We recommend staying overnight and seizing the day by going on Vis – Military tour (the island had an important role in World war II and afterward was isolated for more than 50 years by being a Yugoslavian naval base till the latest war in Croatia). Other options such as Discovery Tour (tour of ancient Roman excavations, numerous sites that have taken away the breath of Romans and Greeks in ancient times, including modern museums and churches), walking on wine roads, mountain biking, free climbing, paragliding, fishing, diving, and swimming, of course, can play a part in entertaining you as well.

DAY 6: ISLAND OF SOLT

So long Vis! Time to start going back direction Split. On your sixth day, we recommend taking a bigger chunk of sailing and head for the island of Šolta, without a doubt one of the must-see destinations on your nautical chart. You can pick your favourite to spend the night choosing among the bay of Nečujam, marina Rogač, get the feeling why sailors love Stomorska or visit the Maslinica. Spend some time in the beautiful marina in Maslinica, once small fishermen's and now a touristic and nautical centre of the island. Along the way enjoy the beauty of southern bays of this picturesque island and get to know the beaches.

DAY 7: SPLIT

Last day of your journey should be reserved for relaxation. We recommend dropping anchor in front of Blue Lagoon, site of Krknjaši, on a small island Drvenik. White sand combined with the crystal blue water and sun gives a perfect setting to enjoy in swimming, kayaking, paddling, making a memorable charter even more unforgettable. If there's still time, as you are to come to ACI Split before the evening on Friday, you can visit the historical town of Trogir (can be crowded), or make a stop on the nearby island of Čiovo. ...and you're back with us! Take a good nap in ACI Marina Split and see you in the morning. Don't forget to refuel the boat!
