Croatia sailing cruises
With dozens of islands scattered off the Dalmatian Coast, Croatia was simply made for sailing
It’s no mystery why Croatia has become the darling of Europe, what with its perfect blend of Old-World charm and youthful exuberance. After all, this is the place where tumbledown villages still make wine by hand, ancient royal palaces become breezy open-air piazzas, and a pulsing underground night scene means you can shout ‘zivjeli’ till sunrise. It just so happens that your best ticket to see all of this is also at the prow of a boat, hopping from island to island and closing out the day with drinks by the Adriatic.Â

Croatia sailing highlights
Get lost in Split’s Diocletian Palace
Once the ancient palace of Roman Emperor Diocletian in the 4th century AD, this tangle of cobbled streets and narrow lanes is ripe for exploration. Get lost searching for the perfect gelato, rub shoulders with the locals in trendy closet-sized bars and climb the steps of the Cattedrale di San Domino for spectacular views over town. In the warmer months, the sound of live opera and classical music rings through the city’s whitewashed squares. Â
Walk the walls of Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik’s biggest claim to fame might be its starring role in the cult TVs series Game of Thrones, but when you’re done walking the ramparts you’ll find the city’s real charm rests in the details. There’s laneway restaurants still serving family recipes, cliffside bars to while away the day, literal underground nightclubs thumping till the wee hours and centuries of history to be unearthed at every corner.
Live the high life in Hvar
Come summer expect to see this luxurious port brimming with fancy yachts and fun-loving partygoers. At 20,000 visitors a day, Hvar is undoubtedly one of the most popular islands in Croatia. But what more can you expect from an island that also holds the official title as the sunniest place in the country? Find out for yourself at the marina’s swanky restaurants and trendy restaurants, or escape the fuss and soak up the views from Hvar Town’s iconic hilltop fortress.
Wine and dine in Korcula
If Hvar is the domain of glamour and decadence, then Korcula is the quiet retreat for those seeking a different pace. This is where you’ll find time-honored traditions and folk music, secluded coves are dotted along the southern coast and a thriving viticulture that’s a treat for budding sommeliers. Spend the day eating your way through the island’s laneway cafes and, come evening, try and catch a performance of the island’s unique Moreska sword dance (usually seen between June and September).

Our Croatia sailing adventure was an amazing experience. I’ve never felt so relaxed and content so quickly while travelling. I’d say this was all thanks to the incredible Ante who was the best skipper and trip leader imaginable.

this trip was very fun and quite often relaxing! all of the spots we visited were very beautiful and our skipper Ante was very lovely and knew all the best places for swimming and eating. this trip is loadsa fun and would definetely book a similar trip in the future! Disclaimer- i do not recommend this trip for anyone who is not willing to be sharing spaces in close quaters with anyone, including bedrooms, or visiting during July/August if you do not do well in the heat- cabins were often toasty at night.
