Why Sailboat

Sailboats are perfect for more interaction with the winds, waves, and your crew. Sailboat charter in Croatia might be your best vacation ever.

Peace and Quiet

Once you turn off the engine there’s just the sound of wind pushing the sails, and the boat cutting through the waves.

Nature and Relaxation

Get up close and personal with the dolphins, seagulls, or snorkel around fish, starfish, octopus, urchins, etc. When at anchor in a small cozy bay enjoy the crickets’ song.

Fuel consumption

Sailboats consume the least amount of fuel and are therefore the most sustainable.

Sailboat charter is a wonderful option to explore Croatian at your own pace.

There are several Croatian island sailing areas, each quite different from the other, but every one of them is uniquely gorgeous, speckled with impressive landscapes, rock formations, and/or amazing vegetation. Sailboat charter in Croatia takes you to traditional sun-bathed ports, modern marinas with all the necessary amenities, and plenty of historical and fascinating places Croatia is famous for.

Super charter company. Josip, Dino, Jure and the rest of Nava team helped out with everything. X-yacht 4.3 was amazing from marina Frapa. Super fast and comfortable. Catamaran with crew looks tempting for the next time.

Joost

Very professional and agile team. The X-Yacht X4.3 – JUNIBAX was in top condition and equipped well beyond average. Generous storage space. Plenty of room for personal equipment.

Andreas

We had lots of fun and the boat was really nice. Plenty of sailing and swimming opportunities. We spent three weeks on the boat and only visited a marina once! It was a great vacation living our fairly remote life on the boat.

Bareboat or skippered charter

First time sailors, or less experienced sailors, even with proper licenses, still might be more comfortable with a crew on board.

Our professional skippers, deck-hands, hostesses, babysitters, and chefs are happy to guide you and cater to all your needs. Depending on their job description, they take care of the safety on board, the route, weather, anchoring, and docking, supplying the boat, preparing meals and snacks, cleaning up, keeping the kids entertained, etc.

Hiring a hostess or a cook is great even if you are a truly experienced sailor because he/she could be your local “guide”. They’ll introduce you to all the excellent places to visit and tips on how to avoid crowds. Giving you a hand on board is also part of their duties. Hiring a skipper is for those who love to enjoy their vacation to the fullest and want only that.

All of our crew members are nautical professionals. And they are here to make the difference between a good holiday and an amazing one! They make sure you are safe and enjoying the time of your life. Read more on what the tasks of the crew are in our blog on crewed charter and what you can expect.

Sailing Routes and Itineraries

Set sail from one of our bases in Dalmatia and discover all the gems Croatia has to offer.

It’s so easy to explore the Adriatic Coast on a chartered sailboat. Croatian islands are close together, so it only takes an hour or two to reach the next one. It may take up to a maximum of 3 hours to reach the most distant ones. The Croatian coast is adorned with historical places and fishing villages, where there are impressive historical structures to explore, friendly locals to meet, and delicious and authentic food to savor.

Sailing according to preferences

You’re into culture and history? Visit numerous historical cities on the coast, from Dubrovnik and Hvar to Split and Sibenik. You’ll see dozens of UNESCO World Heritage sites in whatever direction you set your sail.
If nature is your thing, you’ll be enjoying a paradise with over 1000 islands bathed in pristine water, with hundreds of bays, coves, and beaches to explore. National Park Kornati near our Rogoznica base or Paklinski islands near our Split base are just a few impressive places that might take your breath away.
But if you venture on land you’ll discover more national parks and protected areas with gorgeous lakes, waterfalls, mountains, and valleys. For instance National Park Krka Waterfalls, Biokovo mountain or Vidova gora – perfect for downhill biking, etc.
If you’re more into parties, we’ll guide you to vibrant places along the coast where you will have the best time of your life, day and night. Think of partying in Split for a night then heading over to Carpe Diem beach near Hvar island. Head on all the way to the most famous party beache where all the party animals go in the summer – Zrce beach on the island of Pag.
For gastronomy lovers, sailing gives you access to many hidden restaurants, unapproachable by car, so you can enjoy peace and quiet while tasting some of the best fish plates in the world. We’ll tell you about them in person, they’re so secretive.
Croatia has ideal calm waters for novice sailors looking for a relaxing introduction to bareboat chartering. But paying attention to weather forecasts is important since you there are super windy days, even during the summer.
More accomplished sailors seeking adventure can enjoy the open sea around islands Jabuka and Palagruza, all year round.
We offer support and advice to all our sailboat customers. Our base teams are on hand from the start of your charter and will be waiting to catch your lines at the end.

FAQs about sailboat charter in Croatia

Here are some of the most common questions we get on sailboat charter in Croatia. If you’d like to learn more, head on over to our full FAQ page or Terms and Conditions.

How to book a yacht in Croatia?

Let us know the expected dates of your trip, preferred timing for the charter, and all your expectations for the cruise, together with the total number of guests.


Feel free to share your suggestions and everything will be taken care of. We will recommend the perfect yacht and turn your holidays in Croatia into a dream come true.

What’s the booking process like?

Once you send an inquiry, we reply as soon as possible with a booking confirmation. In order to secure your booking, a bank transfer or credit card payment of 30% of the charter price is required within 7 days after booking, 20% is due 6 months before the charter starts, and 50% four weeks before embarking.

How to choose a charter yacht in Croatia?

Knowing which type and size of a boat is right for you, what options are available, and what to consider when chartering a yacht might seem like a difficult task. If it feels overwhelming, contact us and we’ll make the process much easier by recommending several great options for you.

How much is the deposit for the yacht?

You need to pay a refundable amount in cash or by credit card before the charter starts. It is reimbursed at the end of the charter after the boat has been checked and confirmed as undamaged, by our base manager and staff.

What extra expenses do I need to pay for?

Every person on the boat has to pay a local tax for the number of days traveling. This is payable in cash or by card at the marina. It’s 1.33 € per person per day for every person over 18, and 0.66 € for every person between 12 and 18, whereas kids under 12 are free of charge. All boats have obligatory extras: final cleaning.

Additionally, include full fuel tanks and mooring fees in your budget. We will provide the vessel with full fuel tanks. However, guests must return the vessel with full tanks before arriving back to one of our bases in Split, or Rogoznica for the check-out. Important: A fee is applied if boats are not returned with a full fuel tank. This applies to the fuel tanks onboard of both the engine and the generator in case the boat has one. We provide fuel for the outboard engine, as part of our service. Moreover, the outboard engine for the dinghy is included in the charter price of Nava sailboats, e.g. free of charge.

What yacht activities are available on board?

Nava Boats offer plenty of optional adrenaline-pumping activities. Rent water toys and keep your crew, kids, teens, and everyone entertained. Read more on all the options we offer in our blog on water toys.

What are best sailing cruise routes in Croatia?

You can set sail from three of our bases in Split or Rogoznica, which are all great places to start exploring different sailing areas.  Start by heading over to our sailing routes page, or ask us or your skipper for a suggested cruise itinerary based on the number of days and your expectations.

What is included?

The Yacht is fully insured and we charge a refundable security deposit for each charter. But we highly recommend getting travel insurance for your vacation program. It’s a great additional way to keep everyone on board safe and to have peace of mind.
