We recommend our private sea tours to those who love Croatia as a holiday destination and want to enjoy it from a new, never-before-seen perspective. It is an excellent opportunity to avoid the herring parties of Croatian beaches and the noise and crowds of apartments / hotels. This way, your holiday will be more personalized and more enjoyable for all ages. We always provide a captain for these tours, so you don’t need to have any sailing experience, so you can still take part in a 1-week sailing tour even if you have never rented or sailed on a boat before. If you are interested in the world of sailing, the captain will teach you the basics of sailing and sea navigation during the week. This way, you will get to know how to handle the boat, sails, knots, mooring methods, anchoring techniques and water rules.
The Adriatic Sea in Croatia has 698 islands, 389 islets and 78 reefs, which you can explore on a sailboat. Every day we anchor at a different island and port or in a romantic bay, so we have the opportunity to visit a given Adriatic area from island to island.
Since this is a private tour, we offer several tour routes based on your preferences, depending on the base port of the chartered boat. However, you can modify this even while you are on the go, nothing is mandatory, if you want to stay longer at a given point one day, that is also possible.
Croatia is full of national parks and its crystal clear sea water is a guarantee that we will encounter wonderful wildlife during our tour: dolphins, turtles and fish in all the colors of the rainbow will make your trip an experience.
Selectable boats
Our selectable boats are adapted to your needs, so you can choose from a monohull boat or an extremely spacious catamaran for your vacation. We recommend a monohull if your group does not exceed 6 people + a maximum of 4 children. Although the boat has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, it is worth considering that the places are less spacious, so it may be uncomfortable if it is not used by a family or a close circle of friends.
In the case of catamarans, the places per cabin are more spacious, similarly to the monohull, there are 4 bedrooms available, but each has its own bathroom. The living area is also suitable for 1-2 people to sleep, so up to 10 adults can comfortably sleep and travel for 1 week. The cockpit and bow area are extremely spacious and can comfortably accommodate all passengers on the boat while sailing.
If you do not have sailing experience and knowledge, we would recommend choosing a catamaran because seasickness can develop more easily on a monohull.
The kitchens of both types of boats are fully equipped, although with daily docking, it is not necessary to cook on a daily basis, but the opportunity is there. We provide clean bed linen and towels during the trip.
Tour dates – 2021 spring/summer/autumn
Boat rentals in Croatia run from Saturday to Saturday. Since this is a private family / friends tour, the date is chosen according to your own needs. We organize it as much as you want and are available as you wish.
