Where you'll sail.

Croatia is known for clear water, gentle winds and islands made for slow sailing. Some days you’ll swim in hidden coves; others you’ll wander stone-street towns full of cafés and markets. You choose the route, and we help you prepare for every step.

Featured route

Kornati Islands Loop

Eighty-nine islands, yours for a week. Crystal water, empty anchorages, no queues, the route we'd choose ourselves.

From the first message to the last goodbye on the dock, the same local team looked after every detail. The yacht was immaculate, the briefing thorough, and Pirovac is the perfect launch point. We’re already booking 2027.

Markus & LenaHamburg · Blue Dream · Aug 2025

"Best charter company we've used in 15 years of Croatian sailing. Honest pricing, no surprises, and they know every anchorage worth knowing."

James F.Cambridge · June 2025

"The personal service really shows. Phone answered immediately, problem solved in 10 minutes. The yacht was newer than our last three charters combined."

D
Dario & ElenaMilano · Sept 2024

"Our first bareboat week and they made it effortless, a calm handover, a marked-up chart of their favourite bays, and a text mid-week just to check in. Faultless."

S
Sophie & MarkBristol · July 2025

"Spotless boat, fair deposit, and genuinely warm people. The kids still talk about swimming off the back in the Kornati. We'll be back with friends next year."

B
Familie BeckerMünchen · Aug 2024

"Pirovac is a brilliant base, sailing within the hour, no marina chaos. Ante knows every anchorage worth knowing and isn't shy about the ones to skip."

Anders L.Oslo · June 2025

The crew, day three

Everything to start your week, from one quiet marina.

Marina Pirovac sits closer to the islands than the big bases at Split or Trogir, so you skip the Saturday charter traffic and start sailing on day one. The Kornati National Park is a 3–4 hour sail away, you can be swimming off the boat by lunchtime. About 50 minutes from Zadar airport, an hour from Split, with transfers on request. When you arrive, our team is right there, we explain everything patiently and help you plan the start of your route.

Before you sailGetting ready
Do I need a sailing license?
Yes, Croatian maritime law requires a valid sailing license for the skipper of record, plus a VHF radio operator certificate. We accept RYA Day Skipper and above, ICC, and equivalent national licenses. Bring originals to check-in. Without a license, we can refer a professional local skipper.
Can you arrange airport transfers and provisioning?
Yes to both. Airport transfers (Zadar ~50 min, Split ~1 h) are arranged via trusted local drivers, send your flight details and we'll quote a fixed price. Provisioning is handled by a partner who delivers your shopping list to the boat before arrival, so you can sail straight away.
On the waterYour week afloat
What happens at check-in and check-out?
Check-in: Saturday from 17:00 at Marina Pirovac. Bring originals of skipper licenses, VHF certificate, and IDs for all crew. We do a documents check, full briefing, and walk you through the boat, allow 45–90 minutes depending on the yacht. Check-out: back in berth by Friday, off the boat by Saturday 09:00, boat in the same condition you found her. Final cleaning is included.
Is the Adriatic safe for first-time charterers?
Yes. The Croatian coast is one of the world's friendliest cruising grounds, short hops between islands, well-marked anchorages, predictable wind patterns, and reliable VHF coverage. Our briefing covers local conditions, your route, and what to do if weather changes. We're on the phone all week if you need us.

Two free guides.

Two free guides to get you dreaming: our on-board cookbook of easy recipes for sailing in Croatia, and our pick of the top anchorages in Dalmatia. Good food tastes better at sea, and the right bay makes the week.
