Dalmatian Coast

Croatia

A thousand islands, short hops, lively harbours

Croatia is the easiest place in Europe to start sailing. Islands sit a couple of hours apart, the water is clear and calm in the mornings, and every evening ends in a stone harbour town or a quiet bay with a konoba on the beach.

  • Hvar and the Pakleni islands
  • Vis and the Blue Cave
  • Korčula old town
  • Krka waterfalls from Šibenik

Skipper

To sail without a skipper, one person needs a sailing licence (such as the ICC or RYA Day Skipper) and a VHF radio licence.

No licence? No problem. Add a skipper and they handle the sailing while you relax.
