Yacht charter in Croatia
A thousand islands along the Dalmatian coast.
Why Croatia
Short hops between stone harbours
Croatia's coastline is one of the most indented in Europe, with more than a thousand islands. Distances are short, the water is clear and every evening ends in a charming stone harbour.
Between Split and Dubrovnik you'll find lively Hvar, wild Vis, medieval Korčula and the national park of Mljet, an easy one-way week by yacht.

Korčula
A walled medieval town on its own peninsula, said to be Marco Polo's birthplace.

What a yacht charter in Croatia costs
In Croatia you pay a weekly fee for the yacht and her crew, which changes with the size of the yacht and the month. Fuel, food, drinks and marinas come out of the APA, paid in advance and accounted for by the captain, and VAT follows Croatian rules. A one-way route may add a relocation fee; we show it in the proposal.
