Seamaster Yachting really took care of us from beginning to end - the skipper was excellent and great fun, the boat perfect (and exactly as described) and the sights of Croatia stunning.

A great family yachting holiday in Croatia. It was exactly as described and the service provided by the charter company was excellent. Would definitely book with them again.

A group of us booked a catamaran and it was just perfect - the organization, the boat itself with lots of space & great facilities. The skipper was superb, letting us know the best spots on the islands... Big thanks to Seamaster!

Everything was great from transfer from/to airport, service at marina and yacht was in spot on condition. I would recommend to everyone who would want to go use Seamaster and I'm sure you will have an amazing time like me and all of my crew!

Yet another amazing trip with Seamaster! They always find us the ideal boat, even with last-minute plan changes. This time, travel restrictions redirected our long-awaited Sardinia adventure to the Ionian, but it was still an unforgettable week.

Our holiday was brilliant. We had the best week. In particular, the crew were fantastic. The chef, Kim, was a very talented lady, and Aggolos the skipper and Dora were the nicest people. They really made our week special.

We just returned from an unforgettable 40th birthday celebration (7 friends) in the Saronic Islands. It was pure freedom and escapism! We had no idea what to expect, but Tim Anderson assured us we'd have the time of our lives—and he was absolutely right!

We had an unforgettable experience, thanks to our amazing skipper… From sailing and letting us join in at our own pace to recommending delicious meals, securing the best sunset views, guiding us home after lively nights, and finding breathtaking spots to unwind—every moment was spectacular!

Words cannot describe enough just how much we enjoyed our first sailing holiday to Croatia. We literally had the greatest time… our skipper was fabulous (Nik) and became part of the family. Nobody wanted to come home!

The best time to sail in Croatia is June to Mid-September. August is the peak month, with school holidays in play. June and July are both wonderful months to visit, with the sea temperature gradually rising as the weeks go by. Early July, and the very end of August and start of September are favourite times to sail outside of the school holidays. If you’re looking for a great deal, then May and October are the months for you!
The dedicated bases for the Kvarner Islands are located around Pula, on the Istrian Peninsula, and include ACI Marina Pula and Marina Medulin. You can also enter the Kvarner sailing area from the south, particularly from Zadar, though it’s slightly further away and better suited to a two-week holiday.
Seamaster offer flight and transfer inclusive sailing holidays to the Kvarner Islands. To fly there, Pula Airport is best, being just 15-20 minutes from the Pula bases. If you wish to sail the Kvarner Islands from Zadar, then Zadar Airport is best.
You should expect hot, settled conditions with light winds from late-May through to mid-September. July and August are peak temperature months, with May and October being early and late season, respectively. June and September offer an excellent compromise of hot dry weather without the blistering heat (and crowds).
There are mooring fees in Croatia. Simply, this is a charge incurred for mooring your yacht in marinas, on buoys, or on town quays. The prices are based on numerous factors including the type of mooring, the time of year and the size of the yacht. We recommend that you budget €400 for an average sized yacht doing a 'normal' mixed itinerary of anchorages, marinas, town quays and mooring buoys. You are ultimately in control and can reduce or increase this cost depending on where you moor. Marinas are the most expensive, while anchoring is often free.
If you’re not availing yourself of one of our exclusive Seamaster crew, to sail in Croatia you are required to have at least a RYA Day Skipper certificate or higher and a VHF (Short Range Radio) license. We recommend having an ICC certificate (International Certificate of Competence). If you are in any doubt, please contact Seamaster and we will advised you or even get pre-approval.
