Yacht Charter Croatia - area informations
Croatia has an indented, rocky coastline with hundreds of medium-sized, small and very small islands. Numerous bays. Almost consistently high coastal mountains. All along the coast there are smart marinas, picturesque harbours and little ports with long histories waiting to be discovered on your next sailing holiday in Croatia.
It is the best way to discover a string of offshore islands which provide stunning scenery and quaint towns. Modern marinas provide safe overnight harbours and reliable afternoon winds make sailing a pleasure. Fortified castles and Byzantine palaces reflect Croatia's great trading history and the towns come alive at night with harbourside restaurants and street cafes emphasizing Croatia's strong cosmopolitan nature and a sophisticated cafe society.
Marinas, harbors, anchorages
Croatia has a relatively dense network of marinas, small town and fishing harbors. Service and supply in the major ports are good. In the smaller ports, the supply is limited. Quite high prices can be found in the larger marinas. An alternative are the "Konobas", small owner-operated bars directly on the shore, which hosts sailors "who eats at me can stay for free". But also there are many good anchorages in bays along the coast. In many bays are now fee-mooring buoys for yachts. We try our flotilla a healthy mix of bays and marinas and go about 1-2x per week in a marina.
Wind and Weather
The Summer Wind "Maestrale" (Mistral) brings mostly moderate, north-westerly winds to 4 Bft. If the Adriatic is under the influence of an Atlantic low pressure, can from the south the Yugo, or even called sirocco, strong blow to 8 Bft. Especially in Dalmatia, between Island of Murter and Split and the Makarska coast, the Bora can come from the northeast. She is strong gusty, often reached gale force and their short gusts use with no visible sign. Along the coastline you can easily see the main arterial corridors: bare rock with no trees and shrubs. The current sailing weather Zadar area.
Passport, driver's licenses, taxes
For yacht charter in Croatia a driving licence is required. That means the skipper must have RYA Day Skipper Practical certificate or RYA ICC qualification. These can be obtained from RYA sailing schools in the UK. All sailing yachts in Croatia must have a VHF telephone system features. As a result, at least one crew member must have a VHF radio operator's certificate. This certificate (incl. croatian driver's license) can be purchased at the local port authority. We recommend to do a radio license in your Home country.
