Yacht Charter Croatia — The Complete Guide
Why Croatia Is Europe's Most Popular Charter Destination
Over 1,200 islands, short legs, reliable summer winds and a dense marina network make Croatia the most chartered sailing destination on the continent. The main charter bases are in Split, Zadar, Šibenik and Dubrovnik.
The Main Regions
Northern Dalmatia (Zadar, Šibenik) shines with Krka National Park and the Kornati Islands. Central Dalmatia (Split) is the classic launch point for Brač, Hvar and Vis. Southern Dalmatia (Dubrovnik) offers the most dramatic coastline and the Elaphiti Islands.
Pricing and Season
From $1,800/week for a sailing yacht in shoulder season, significantly more at the height of summer. See our Adriatic seasonal guide for the optimal travel time.
