Why charter in Croatia
Croatia has established itself as one of the best-value sailing destinations in the Mediterranean — 1,200 islands, crystal-clear Adriatic water, medieval harbour towns, and excellent food and wine, all at prices below Greece or Spain.
Bareboat options
Croatia has one of the largest bareboat fleets in the world. The major operators — The Moorings, Sunsail, Navigare, Ultra Sailing — all operate from Split and Trogir. Boats range from 32ft starter monohulls to 55ft premium catamarans.
Crewed options
A crewed sailing yacht (skipper + hostess) starts from around $4,400–$5,500/week base for a 45ft boat.
Charter bases
Split is the main hub. Trogir is a slightly more relaxed alternative. Šibenik in the north offers access to the Kornati National Park archipelago.
