WHY CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

Dubrovnik is one of the most beautiful cities in the world and it should be on everyone’s wish list. With its astonishing history and unsurpassed beauty, you will feel like a king in a castle, walking on high walls and through centuries-old streets. From your yacht charter, you can enjoy a stunning view of amazing fortresses; berth in the Old Town port and chit-chat with locals or anchor next to the mysterious island of Lokrum – located just a few minutes from the city.

I already mentioned the island of Lokrum, but during your yacht charter in Dubrovnik , you can easily visit 13 more beautiful islands that surround it. They are mostly uninhabited with immaculate nature, lovely lighthouses, old monasteries, botanical gardens, sandy beaches and much more .

For movie fanatics, a yacht charter in Dubrovnik is a real treat. Taking photos where Games of Thrones , Star Wars , Robin Hood and many more movies were filmed is amazing – you can play the role of a movie star for a day. Moreover, Dubrovnik is only 30 minutes from Montenegro and Bosnia so you will be able to visit these two countries with ease.

WHEN TO CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

Whenever you want! Dubrovnik is a city with a typical Mediterranean climate, mild winters and warm and dry summers. Winters in Dubrovnik are pleasant, and the average daily temperature is around 10°C (50℉), but for a truly beautiful yacht charter in Dubrovnik, we recommend the months between April and November.

This period we can divide into three parts: The “Heart” of the season – July and August, the middle season – May, June and September and the low season – April and November.

The heart of the season is ideal for those who like to enjoy hot summers and busy cities. What is great is that you can always find a secluded bay with your yacht charter in Dubrovnik and enjoy 100% privacy, even on the busiest day of the year. Furthermore, during this period you will have the opportunity to attend the Dubrovnik Summer Festival – one of the most important cultural festivals in Croatia.

During the mid-season, beaches are not too crowded and the temperature is ideal for both kids and adults. The days are sunny and the sea temperature is perfect. For guests who do not like mingling too much, this is the perfect time for a yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

And the low season is when the temperatures are around 18 to 21°C (65 to 70 degrees °F) which are ideal for charter guests who do not prefer over-the-top weather conditions. Winds in Dubrovnik are mild and the sea is peaceful. This time of the year is amazing if you want to explore the real Dubrovnik and witness every street, cathedral and island in all their glory.

HOW TO GET TO DUBROVNIK

The best way to arrive to your yacht charter in Dubrovnik is by plane or a private jet. The well-connected Dubrovnik airport has a direct line from the USA, as well as from a lot of European cities. Furthermore, your yacht can wait for you in the small city of Cavtat which is just a few minutes away from the airport and a few minutes of cruising from Dubrovnik.

If you decide to come by car, you should ask your local broker – SuperYachts Croatia , to reserve a parking slot for you, since Dubrovnik is swamped by road traffic in the heart of the season. In addition, if you do not want to think about transport, SuperYachts Croatia will arrange everything for you – your plane, car and yacht will be waiting for you whenever you want.

PERFECT ACTIVITIES FOR YOUR YACHT CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

Ride a jet ski next to the centuries-old dubrovnik walls.

Your experienced yacht charter crew will take out all of your water toys so you can enjoy riding near the Walls of Dubrovnik. Have a closer look at its fortresses, beaches and islands. Moreover, you can always ask your crew to set up a camera or a GoPro and capture the scenery and the amazing ride; who knows, you may even be able to spot a friendly dolphin.

Visit each of 14 beautiful islands that surround Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik is surrounded by a small archipelago of 14 islands called Elafiti and you can visit all of them. The archipelago is made of  8 large islands – Olipa, Tajan, Jakljan, Šipan, Ruda, Lopud, Koločep and Daksa, and 6 smaller islands – Lokrum , St. Andrew, Mišnjak, Kosmeč, Goleč and Crkvine.

Lokrum is the closest island to Dubrovnik, but some do not even consider it part of the Elafiti, while the island of Šipan is the largest island of the Elafiti, and also the furthest from Dubrovnik. You should visit Lopud and Koločep – two beautiful islands where you can spend the whole day with your yacht charter party. Palm trees and beautiful vegetation will delight both adults and kids.

Enjoy a 360 panoramic cable car ride to the mountain of Srđ

From your yacht to the cable car Dubrovnik you need only several minutes of walking. After a 5-minute ride with the cable car, you will be well above the town of Dubrovnik . Delight in the magical view of the entire city, with your beautiful yacht anchored in the distance.

Moreover, you can also enjoy a lovely dining experience in the Panorama restaurant with one-of-a-kind dishes and hospitality. Dine or have a drink, walk around, take incredible panoramic photos and visit the historical museum.

Let your stewardess take you on the Game of Thrones tour

If you are a fan of Game of Thrones , Dubrovnik will be a real paradise for you. Since a lot of scenes were filmed in real locations around Dubrovnik , you can visit all of them. Your lovely hostess can arrange a walking tour and you can take magical photos and enjoy a real Game of Thrones experience. Moreover, you can sit on the Iron Throne from the series and complete your yacht charter vacation on, “the most valuable of all chairs’’. 

Dine in the Michelin starred restaurant 360 Dubrovnik, and enjoy the spectacular view on your lovely yacht

This amazing restaurant is focused on modern cuisine based on the culinary history of the region of Dalmatia and the city of Dubrovnik. It is surrounded by the Walls of Dubrovnik , sitting on an open-air terrace, from which the views are simply jaw-dropping, enabling you to enjoy a breathtaking view of the old harbour and your yacht charter.

We can guarantee that you will experience a magical evening with immaculate and helpful staff, delightful food and exceptional ambience.

Capture cool videos of Dubrovnik’s streets with a drone

The most popular pictures taken of Dubrovnik are the ones taken with a drone . Let your SuperYachts Croatia broker arrange a drone for you, or you can bring your own, and take the most beautiful pictures ever. Your social media will explode and you will have amazing photos from your yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

We recommend that you ask the captain to anchor the yacht right in front of Old Town, so you can create stunning videos while also capturing your magnificent yacht and the most beautiful city in the world – Dubrovnik.

Ride a Seabob with friendly dolphins near the island of Lokrum

Dubrovnik is full of dolphins so do not be surprised if you see one. Take advantage of your yacht charter’s water toys and try to spot a dolphin. Utilise the Seabob so you can dive like a dolphin and enjoy the turquoise sea next to lovely Dubrovnik. While diving with your Seabob you will be able to observe a beautiful seabed, full of charming little fish, starfish and other specimens of acquatic flora and fauna.

Walk through the Walls of Dubrovnik

The Walls of Dubrovnik used to be a powerful defence system, but today they are a unique cultural and historical heritage of Dubrovnik . They are the biggest tourist attraction and the most popular part of the city. It is an even better experience when you can explore them in peace, with an easy walk alongside two kilometres of groomed trails, while also watching your magical yacht charter next to them.

The Walls are one of the most monumental fortifications in Europe, and the construction of the first fortresses began in the 8th century. More intensive construction lasted from the middle of the 15th to the end of the 16th century, and although they were hit by an earthquake in 1667, the walls were not damaged too much.

Historic walls surround the city in the shape of an irregular polygon, and you will be able to experience 16 towers and bastions, as well as a total of five fortresses: Micčeta, St.John, Bokar, Lovrijenac and Revelin. The unique and stunning Walls of Dubrovnik were recognized by UNESCO , which included them on the World Heritage List .

Visit the first Croatian underwater winery

Just a few years ago, the first underwater winery opened less than an hour north of Dubrovnik. The town of Drače on the Pelješac peninsula holds a long and rich culture of winemaking. There are also amazing cultural sights and a lot of natural beauty. You can visit from land or dive right in and explore the whole winery.

Furthermore, you will come across various surprising things, and certainly the most interesting is the old sunken ship in the Mali Ston bay. Here, you can buy a bottle of unique wine straight from an underwater winery and enjoy it during your yacht charter in Dubrovnik; it can be one of the best presents you can gift your friends back home.

Watch the sun kissing the walls and the sea from your yacht

Sunsets are a constant source of inspiration for poets, writers, romantics, but also yacht charter guests. Everyone likes them, especially if you can share them with your loved ones during your yacht charter in Dubrovnik. Sunsets around Dubrovnik are truly magical since you can follow the sun as it starts to slowly touch the Walls of Dubrovnik, kissing the sea and making way for the moon.

It is important to state that the most beautiful sunset views are from your yacht or the Srđ mountain . In addition, your private chef can always serve your dinner right before sunset so you can enjoy the spectacular view while tasting the best food ever.

ENJOY AN EXQUISITE FINE DINING EXPERIENCE ON YOUR YACHT CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

360 Dubrovnik – This charming restaurant with a Michelin star is located in the heart of the Old town, which means you will get to enjoy your dinner on a UNESCO heritage site . You can opt for a delicious menu accompanied by excellent wines or you can order a la carte. Whatever you choose, you are not going to make a mistake.

This amazing restaurant has an incredible view that amazes guests; from the open-air terrace, you will be able to see your yacht charter in Dubrovnik. Most of the visitors book a reservation in 360 Dubrovnik one month before, so you should ask your local broker from SuperYachts Croatia to take care of the reservations, so you can truly enjoy this special experience.

Bota Šare – The first oyster & sushi bar in Dubrovnik is located in the Old town, right across from the beautiful Dubrovnik Cathedral. Here you can enjoy fresh oysters from Pelješac and savour a fine dining experience with unique gastro-fusion elements, with influences from Dalmatian and Japanese cuisine.

The atmosphere is very romantic and your loved ones will enjoy every bite, sip and moment while dining in Bota Šare. And best of all, your yacht can berth just 1 minute from the restaurant.

Pantarul Restaurant – feel like a real Croat while sampling delicious domestic ingredients. You can anchor your yacht in Uvala Lapad and just a few minutes of walking will bring you to a lovely family restaurant with delicious food.

What makes this restaurant special is that its menu changes seasonally and all of the meals are prepared by provisioning from excellent local farms near Dubrovnik. Moreover, they have a daily delivery of fresh fish and the meat is sourced from organic and renewable farms.

Panorama Restaurant – this is the restaurant where you will get to experience the most amazing view of your yacht and Dubrovnik in all its glory. On the beautiful terrace, you can enjoy an incredible landscape of the mainland, the sea and the amazing Dubrovnik city.

The professional and helpful staff will always be at your disposal – and the food is amazing too! To get to this restaurant, you can pick the means of your transportation: by a cable car,  a car or quads. Whatever you opt for, you will enjoy the magnificent view of this spectacular city, together with the island of Lokrum.

Restaurant Kopun – in this restaurant, old Croatian recipes were handed down through centuries so you could sample authentic Dubrovnik cuisine, like Jacob’s caps with truffle cream or an amazing seafood stew. This is a place where guests want to come back over and over again.

While in Dubrovnik, you need to try the local dessert – Dubrovačka rožata , which is part of the gastronomic heritage of medieval Dalmatia and survived despite many influences from the Venetian and Ottoman Empires. The first records of the Dubrovačka rožata date back to the time of the Venetians, and in 1300 it was recorded under the name “friar’s pudding”.

The Venetians are long gone, but this dessert is still here, with traces of influences from French cuisine. It is a caramelized shell in which rožata is cooked and the main ingredient is a rose liqueur. But at the end of the day, your private chef can also prepare all the wonderful delicacies and specialities you sampled during your yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

OUR SUGGESTED SEVEN-DAY YACHT CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

A yacht charter in Dubrovnik is once in a lifetime experience, especially with a local yacht broker who will show you the best spots known only to the local experiences, and create unique yachting experiences for you and your charter guests.

Day 1: Dubrovnik – Lokrum island

On the first day of your yacht charter in Dubrovnik, we recommend spending some time near the city of Dubrovnik, where you can explore its surroundings by yacht or on foot. This Pearl of the Adriatic will leave you speechless, thanks to its magical old town.

Moreover, you can anchor your yacht near the island of Lokrum and enjoy a magical view of Dubrovnik`s old town. You will be able to experience a picnic on Lokrum island, which is the perfect getaway place for Dubrovnik`s locals and their guests.

The island of Lokrum is declared a special reserve under the protection of UNESCO, with a botanical garden containing an enviable collection of eucalyptus and cactus, as well as beautiful gardens and parks. Walk slowly through the vegetation and refresh yourself in the shade of black ash or rest under the swaying treetops of Aleppo pine.

Moreover, this island has a salty lake in its centre, in which you can jump from a 10m high rock. This is a perfect Instagramable spot, with rare animal species like protected turtles and peacocks.

Day 2: Lopud island- Šipan island

Lopud is the most developed among the Elaphite Islands , a small archipelago containing several isles located northwest of Dubrovnik. It is also the second-largest in terms of size, while a favourable climate allows for nearly 2600 hours of sunshine each year.

A mild climate has led to the development of lush and rich Mediterranean and subtropical vegetation with lemons, oranges, pines, cypresses and palm trees. Your local yacht captain will want to take you to Šunj – a sandy beach considered to be one of the most beautiful beaches in the Croatian Adriatic sea. The sandy shoal of this beach stretches a few hundred meters from the shore, which makes the bay ideal for a family yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

Day 3: The Island of Šipan –  Pelješac peninsula

The biggest island of the Elaphite archipelago is Šipan, which is also listed in the Guinness Book of Records for the biggest ratio of olive trees to the population of its total area, is a must-see during your yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

A lot of people from Dubrovnik come to this magical island because of the astonishing restaurant Bowa, where you can berth your yacht and enjoy delicious food. This attractive restaurant is located right by the sea, with tables under the canopies set on charming oak and fir constructions which makes it an inviting place for a meal. Swim, sunbathe and have fun with your water toys while waiting for the food.

After lunch, we recommend a visit to the city of Ston on the Pelješac peninsula . The “City of Salt” will amaze you with its rich history and numerous attractions. As soon as you step into Ston, you will feel as if you have travelled back into the distant past; tradition is woven into every stone and building.

While spending time in Ston, visit the famous saltworks, one of the three saltworks in Croatia, and the oldest in Europe, dating back to the 14th century. It was formed after the Republic of Ragusa bought Ston in the year 1333. Ston was surrounded by defensive walls, which are a popular attraction and by length, second only to the Great Wall of China.

Moreover, if you opt for swimming, sunbathing or playing with water toys, we recommend you anchor in the famous Prapratno bay. This is one of the most beautiful bays in this part of Pelješac, with a long sandy beach in an area overgrown with pine forests.

Day 4 – Pelješac peninsula – Mljet National Park

The island of Mljet is the most forested of all the Croatian Adriatic islands, and unquestionably, one of the most attractive. It is perfect for enjoying the beauty of untouched nature that will enchant everyone who visits this enchanting isle. Mljet is an island of mystery, with rich forests, beautiful beaches and an incredibly blue sea, ideal for enjoying pristine nature.

You can ride an e-bike through the National Park or just enjoy an al-fresco dining experience on the Greenest Croatian island. Here, you can explore the Veliko lake, with an islet of St. Mary and a church and monastery founded in the 12th century by the Benedictines of Monte Gargano in Italy. Alternative targets for exploration also are the Malo lake and the Odysseus Cave .

Day 5 -Mljet National Park – Lastovo Island

A small and inhabited island, Lastovo is the perfect place for those looking for a quiet and relaxing holiday, in untouched and beautiful nature. Lastovo island has a mild Mediterranean climate and due to its good position, it has more than 2700 hours of sunshine a year.

Lastovo also has the starriest sky in Europe and if you embark on a yacht charter in Dubrovnik during the summer, you will be able to see one of the most beautiful astronomical phenomena – the Perseid meteor shower . Make a wish and enjoy this beautiful island.

For swimming and snorkelling, we recommend the Porto Rosso beach complemented with a nautical centre and a great restaurant, ideal for yacht charter guests. Lastovo also harbours one of the oldest lighthouses in the Croatian Adriatic.

Day 6: Island of Lastovo – Island of Korčula

You will feel as if you have stepped back in time when you arrive on the i sland of Korčula , which has been inhabited since prehistoric times. This is the sixth-largest island in Croatia and is truly worth visiting and exploring. The city of Korčula is surrounded by 13th-century walls and it is one of the best-preserved fortified medieval towns in Croatia.

Until the beginning of the 18th century, it was forbidden to build outside the city walls, and visitors entered via a wooden drawbridge. Another fun fact about Korčula is that Marco Polo , one of the world’s biggest historical travellers, was born on this island and spent his childhood in one of the houses that are still there.

Korčula is not only a historical place; it has a lot of stunning beaches and bays where you can spend your yacht charter vacation in Croatia peacefully. If you are ready for the perfect Instagram place – swing on a swing on Moro beach. If you prefer sandy beaches, seek out Vela Pržina and Bilin Žal. Finally, for one of the most beautiful islets in the world, according to the New York Times , visit Proizd – only a few minutes from Korčula.

If you are looking for a good restaurant on this amazing island, let your charter crew reserve a table in LD Terrace – a Michelin starred restaurant.

Day 7: Island of Korčula – City of Dubrovnik

On your last day,  cruise back from Korčula to Dubrovnik . You can always ask your yacht captain to stop on a stunning beach or an isolated bay for a swim or one last ride with some of the water toys. When you arrive back in Dubrovnik, your local broker at SuperYachts Croatia can arrange transportation to the airport for you or if you want to stay in Croatia – we can book another yacht to continue your perfect yacht charter vacation.

TOP ANCHORAGES AND MARINAS FOR YOUR YACHT CHARTER IN DUBROVNIK

The best place to anchor your yacht is between Dubrovnik`s walls and the island of Lokrum, from where you can enjoy a perfect view of the most beautiful city on the Adriatic. This is also the area where a lot of celebrities anchor their yachts since people in Dubrovnik are not intrusive and mind their own business; this means that you will enjoy 100% privacy on your yacht charter in Dubrovnik.

The Dubrovnik port and Marina Frapa, located in the centre of Dubrovnik, are marinas that will satisfy all logistical yacht needs. If you are looking for marinas outside of Dubrovnik – there are plenty, like ACI Marina Dubrovnik , Zaton, Kupari, Srebreno, Čista Luka, Uvala Tiha, Cavtat near the shore, and Koločep, Lopud, Bowa, Šipanska Luka, Okulje and much more on islands.

Favourite anchorages among guests are Bowa next to the eponymous restaurant on the island of Šipan and Stupe beach near the island of Korčula.

Located in southern Croatia, the city is best known for its beguiling Old Town encircled with huge 16 th -century stone walls. But it is as much its stunningly preserved. But it’s also Dubrovnik’s scenic coastline that draws huge numbers of visitors here every year – a coastline that entices many to venture out further to explore the glistening waters of the Adriatic. For such people, chartering a yacht around Dubrovnik is the perfect activity – and here are 3 great places to do so.

Dubrovnik Yacht Charters

A unesco world heritage site, dubrovnik is one of the most attractive croatian yacht charter destinations.

Make Dubrovnik a stop on your next Croatia yacht charter through South Dalmatia, and experience all of the history it has to offer. When it comes to Croatia’s splendid Dalmatian coast, Dubrovnik is the crown jewel. (In fact, you’ll hear it called the “pearl of the Adriatic.”) Each year, this preserved medieval city ranks as a top Adriatic destination for yacht charters, and it makes sense. Dubrovnik is an Old World charmer. With its Baroque-style buildings dating to the 13th and 14th centuries, marble-clad streets and ancient city walls, Dubrovnik is wrapped in antiquity, while offering the luxury and Mediterranean comforts of any European city.

Dubrovnik’s Old Town – which earned UNESCO World Heritage Site designation – transports you back in time. Protected by ancient city walls, Old Town’s narrow streets and marble-paved Stradum, one of the most picturesque piazzas in all of Europe, offer yacht charters a chance to people watch, grab a cocktail, or simply to gawk at Dubrovnik’s beautiful sights.

Dubrovnik Yacht Charters: The Gateway to South Dalmatia and Montenegro

Croatia’s 300-mile Dalmatian coast gives Amalfi and the French Riviera a run for their money when it comes to luxury yacht charters, and the southern shores around Dubrovnik might be the most stunning part of the entire coast.

The city is located near to sights like the Lastovo archipelago, the Elaphiti Islands, and Montenegro’s Bay of Kotor (another UNESCO site). In other words, Dubrovnik sits in the middle of the Adriatic’s finest cruising grounds. Fortunately, Dubrovnik remains off-the-beaten-path and still mostly undiscovered, making this an ideal destination for luxury boat charters. A few nearby sights to see include:

• Lastovo : An archipelago of 46 sparsely populated islands, Lastovo is home to many hidden port towns and miles of empty coastline.
• Korcula Island : Located north of Dubrovnik, Korcula is one of Croatia’s most populated islands, and a hub for nightclubs, shopping, and beach parties.
• Bay of Kotor : Just south of Dubrovnik sits Montenegro’s stunning Bay of Kotor, with its preserved medieval towns Kotor and Tivat.

Best Time to Charter a Yacht in Dubrovnik

The Croatian Dalmatian coast offers the best in Mediterranean climate: Warm summer weather, matched with wet winters. In fact, there are more than 250 sunny days per year in Dubrovnik and temperatures are pleasant year-round. That makes for a long charter yacht season.

The official season tends to take off in late spring and runs into late fall. Typically, charter traffic peaks in July and August.

If you’re considering a sailing yacht charter, Croatia is well-known for its westerly Maestral winds – which peak every afternoon throughout the summer. In fall and winter, the Bora northern winds are also common.

Dubrovnik Yacht Charters – Things to Do & See

Dubrovnik offers something for everyone – hidden cocktail bars and enotecas, preserved architecture and museums, hiking, and water sports. What sights and tastes should be on your yacht charter itinerary? Here are a few of Dubrovnik’s must-see attractions:

As you enter the Old Town through Pile Gate, take the winding, narrow streets to the heart of Dubrovnik: Stradun, otherwise known as “Placa.” Bordered by the Franciscan Monastery, Church of St. Blaise and Rector’s Palace, Stradun is a see-it-to-believe-it piazza that’s a center of Croatian history. As ancient as it is beautiful, Stradun is the perfect place for a glass of Dalmatian wine, shopping, or tasting the catch of the day.

Old Town Walls

Dubrovnik might be one of the best preserved cities in all of Europe, and the ancient marble walls that line Old Town prove it. The city’s walls date to the 10th century, and separate Dubrovnik from the sparkling Adriatic. Home to four fortresses, one at each corner – including Minceta Tower, Revelin Fortress, St. John’s Fortress and Bokar Bastion – yacht charter guests can walk along the walls and simultaneously learn about Croatia’s rich history.

Dating back to 1673, Dubrovnik’s main cathedral is a stunning architectural landmark, which houses artifacts of Croatia’s storied past. You’ll be wowed by the centuries-old Assumption Of Our Lady/The Virgin painting, which was believed to be created by Titian, the skull of St. Blaise.

Rector’s Palace

Once home to the Rector of Croatia, Rector’s Palace is, today, the Dubrovnik city museum. Originally designed by Onofrio della Cava, the same man who designed Onofrio’s fountain in Stradum, this building has undergone numerous preservation and restoration efforts, due to the fact that it was nearly destroyed after the 1667 earthquake.

This isn’t your average cocktail bar. Located outside the city walls, on a terraced-cliff overlooking the Adriatic, you’ll find the hole-in-the-wall Buza Bar. A must-visit Dubrovnik hot-spot, Buza might be the most romantic bar in all of Croatia.

Restaurants Galore

Dubrovnik’s many eateries and restaurants showcase the finest in Dalmatia food and drink. Check out Ragusa 2, a chic Old Town restaurant that serves local, fresh-caught seafood with coastal Croatian flair. Wine connoisseurs can sample the region’s finest wines at several Dubrovnik wine bars like Enoteka Terra. Plus, many of the city’s restaurants are converted 13th and 14th-century buildings, providing timeless ambiance.

Dubrovnik’s Cable Car

Since 1969, visitors to Dubrovnik have flocked to the top of Srd Hill for panoramic views of Old Town and the nearby Elaphiti islands. In fact, on clear days, you can see nearly 40 miles out to sea. Looking for an adventure? Hike along the crest of Srd Hill to a secluded neighboring fort for incredible Adriatic views – the perfect spot for an afternoon picnic.

Dubrovnik Yacht Charter: Your Ticket to a Luxurious Adriatic Adventure

Its natural beauty and rich history with the seductive charm of a balmy Mediterranean climate and coastal scenery of incomparable beauty make this UNESCO World Heritage Site one of the most beloved and visited Mediterranean destinations

Dubrovnik seems to be born from the palette of a painter who wanted to use warmer color gradients for creating a landscape that enchants the visitor at the first sight. For many centuries, this Adriatic Pearl was an independent Republic, a proud cultural center, and essential Mediterranean trading power.

From its sun-kissed terracotta rooftops to its emerald green hills, Dubrovnik’s palette is a feast for the eyes. The city’s Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a labyrinth of narrow, cobblestone streets lined with pastel-hued houses and adorned with ornate stonework. As you stroll along the city’s promenade, let the warm Adriatic breeze and breathtaking views of the surrounding hills and islands wash over you.

• FAQ: Answers to Your Adriatic Exploration Queries

Although no longer politically independent, its natural beauty and rich history with the seductive charm of a balmy Mediterranean climate and coastal scenery of incomparable beauty make this UNESCO World Heritage Site one of the most beloved and most visited Mediterranean destinations .

Rare are the cities that can boast a comparable location or equally well-preserved medieval walls. The enchantment starts with the panoramic view of the Old Town of Dubrovnik, from the winding road that brings you to town from the airport.

Dubrovnik is a living museum , a treasure of Baroque, Renaissance, and medieval churches and palaces. Minčeta, Bokar, Lovrijenac are just some of the beautiful forts and towers that surround the city, but for visitors, the City Port with the statue of St. Vlaho, city patron, is the best entry point into this treasure, this former city-state and symbol of freedom.

You will also soon learn really fast that the steps and stairs are part of Dubrovnik’s charm, and we love them, or at least we don’t mind them that much. Believe it or not, Dubrovnik is the city with the most stairs on the Mediterranean. There are 4.343 steps within the perimeter of the city wall and 1.080 steps on the wall itself, making the grand total of 5.423.

For locals, these stairs are a place to unwind with friends on a late summer night, a place to wait before meeting someone. Don’t be surprised if you see them chilling by shop windows, talking and laughing loudly, for this all represents the carefree city spirit.

In the morning, you’ll see the locals visit open markets, not just for food, but also in hope accidentally happen upon a familiar face and have an excuse to sit down for coffee and gossip.

The most luxurious Croatian destination – Dubrovnik: Just for a walk

Another local tradition is going to Stradun – just for a walk, but every evening, starting at Pile, then to Orlando, and then back the Onofrio water fountain… and then repeat for two or three times. Make sure you’re wearing your best clothes, for there’ll be many fashion-savvy eyes on you, judging from the nearby restaurants and cafes.

If catwalk isn’t your thing, there are plenty of backstreets downtown. The alternative is Gundulić square, dominated by a statue of one of the city’s most famous poets. The square is always busy, transforming itself like a chameleon many times throughout the day. The ‘green market’, as the locals call it, offers freshly picked produce and jars of homemade jams, pickles, and spices. Dubrovnik’s famous delicacies are: kotonjata (quince jelly), arancini (sugar-coated orange peel), bruštulani mjenduli (sugar-coated almonds), dried figs.

And as the final bell echoes across the city, endless flocks of seagulls glided down onto the market that was busy just until a few minutes earlier. The reason for this invasion: feeding time. The birds are fed from buckets full of corn whose contents are dispersed all over the square. The feeding frenzy lasts for just a few short minutes, and normality is restored. Every day, come rain or shine, the city’s pigeons are fed in Gundulić Square, always at the same time, paid for by the city council.

As the last feathers fly away, the square enters its afternoon phase, and the clink of coffee cups and the popping of wine corks can be heard as Dubrovnik’s alfresco lunchtime begins. The coolest drink around is the fresh water from the Onofrio water fountains, built in 1440 and designed by Onofrio della Cava.

Italian builders della Cava and Andreucio have two years earlier erected an unbelievable 11-km long aqueduct, bringing water to the city from the nearby Šumet and other forest springs outside the city walls. The two fountains remained the only source of potable water in the city for the following four centuries, and were considered so crucial to the functioning of the city that the punishment for contaminating water was cutting off of a hand.

We assume there weren’t that many attempts. The fountains today are among the most important symbols of the city, especially the Small fountain, right next to the Summer games stage. This event takes place every year from July 10 and August 25, and during those seven weeks of high summer, Dubrovnik gives its heart and soul to the Arts.

Cobbled streets, Baroque palaces and Renaissance piazzas set the magical setting for concerts and live theater performances. The locals have always been savvy merchants and had smart rulers made giving back to the city part of the city charter, which now reflects in the city’s architecture and cultural heritage.

What better way to get to know the culture and history of the country, city , or village you are visiting than exploring the artifacts, arts, and stories shown and told in their museums. The House of Marin Držić is undoubtedly one of the must-visit museums in Dubrovnik. Držić was a world-famous 16th-century playwright, poet, and one of the key authors of the European Renaissance comedy.

His works abound in clashes of the traditional and the modern, fiction and reality, the comic and the tragic, and are an important legacy to the whole European and world comedy scene. They were also somewhat controversial at the time, as he portrayed current events and political situations through comedy and railed against the authorities. In Držić’s honor and memory, his birth house – downtown in the Old Town, in Široka Street adjacent to the Domino Church- is now a museum dedicated to his life and works.

He was a man ahead of his time, and his literary works remain fresh and interesting today, so make sure you visit the museum and the museum shop, where you can find unique souvenirs like English translations of Držić’s books. At the same time smaller than Držić and equally as big is another art or trade honed to perfection by the locals: filigree. The tradition of spinning gold wire into minute jewelry still thrives, and locally made ‘rečini’ (earrings) or ‘puce’ (decorative buttons) you purchase in Dubrovnik will forever remind you of your time there.

Gold, silver and coral jewelry is fascinating for its timeless beauty and artistry, and the local design matches all fashion styles, traditional or modern. At their Old Town workshops, goldsmiths Vierda, Kraljević and Jurišić still manufacture the world-famous pieces using age-old methods. Another local artisan tradition still kept alive are barbershops. In this golden age of the barbershop revival, find old-fashioned atmosphere waiting for you at Placa 15 near Stradun.

As soon as you walk into the shop, you will find yourself fully absorbed in the fragrance of traditional soap, aftershave, various hair and face tonics, oils, neck powders, in this small, cozy, almost familiar atmosphere where friends share all the latest gossip. City beaches are always popular during the hot summer months, and the two with the best view of the Old Town are Banje i Sv. Jakov.

Kolorina lagoon is located between the fortress Lovrijenac and Gradac Park, local people call it Šulić according to the family whose house sits at the beach entrance. Mostly locals enjoy this beach, rare foreigners stray there, which is not a surprise since the entrance to the beach is not easy to find as it looks like a doorway of a private home.

The beach offers amazing vista towards the fortress Lovrijenac rising on the left side of the lagoon and the right side views amazing cliffs of the Gradac Park with intriguing stone houses of the artist Jagoda Buić at the foot of the cliffs.

If you want to cool down with the locals, you’ll have to go all the way to the isle of Lokrum , or to the Šunj beach at Lopud, where you can their summer water polo league, be it as a player, or one of the obsessed spectators. Or you can sail around Dubrovnik and discover beautiful Elaphiti islands .  When choosing a yacht in charter , you first need to decide whether you want to feel the meditative power of silence on board sailing boat and catamaran , or whether you appreciate speed and comfort, with interest to rent a motorboat or luxury yacht . After that, leave all the ‘details’ to us. We will pay special attention to all your needs, to select the boat up to your wishes, to feel safe and comfortable with the crew that will make your time special, organize provisioning and prepare the route that will leave you breathless!

If you find yourself in Dubrovnik mid-August, you should definitely go take a look at this unique demonstration of competitive spirit and adventurous approach to sports. The Wild League, as the call this recreational water polo league, is a summer league that gathers teams representing different Dubrovnik beaches. It has been an essential part of Dubrovnik’s summer tradition since 1949. It is more than a hobby, more than a pastime, more than a sport. It’s something that Dubrovnik men grew up with and something they gladly pass on to their kids.

Thoughtfully selected music, a rustic interior, fine indigenous food and a spacious terrace complimented with natural shade have all secured Sesame restaurant a high spot on the scale of top, Dubrovnik, fine dining establishments. Even though this gastro-paradise is located in the city centre, near Lovrijenac fortress and Danče beach, it is still relieved of the pulsating, tourist turmoil. Sesame used to be a gathering spot for bohemian souls of Dubrovnik, holding jazz parties at the weekends.

Today, it represents a cherished destination for domestic and foreign enthusiasts of good music, food and drink. Furthermore, the restaurant’s interior design boasts an elegant, museum-like ambience. Heirlooms, artefacts, antiquities, framed newspaper articles of yesteryear and photos of the Dubrovnik olden days adorn this lovely place.

Another hot spot enjoys the world’s bella vista – cliff-location, right above the sea surface with a clear view stretching across the Adriatic. At the end of the city’s alley-loop, behind the Dubrovnik cathedral, a miniature gateway in the city walls leads to the bar and the beach at the bottom.

If water polo isn’t your thing, take a stroll to the small soccer and basketball court smack in the heart of the city, crowned as the most beautiful court in the world by Architectural Digest. In Dubrovnik, savoring a cup of coffee can be a form of meditation – part of a relaxed Dalmatian way of being known as ‘fjaka’. Coffee is more than caffeine – it’s a traditional way of life. When meeting Dubrovnik locals, you will often hear ‘ajmo na kavu’ (let’s have a cup of coffee) – even though you may end up drinking something else – an invitation that involves chatting for hours and dressing nicely. So take a seat, enjoy your coffee and enjoy Dubrovnik .

Ride up to the top of the Mount of Srđ and enjoy the Old Town, the Adriatic Sea, nearby islands , and a coffee or cocktail. If you are a sunset lover, the golden hour would be your time to visit. Famous and free. Allegedly cursed. The place of stories, mysteries, and legends. Mother Nature has always reigned supreme here.

Untouched for centuries, Lokrum is a Nature Reserve and a Special Forest Vegetation Reserve, inhabited only by rabbits and peacocks introduced to the island in the 19th century by the Austrian archduke Maximilian. He also started an exotic botanical garden. Once home to Benedictine monks, this island was also a legendary haven for Richard the Lion Heart. Today Lokrum remains a sanctuary – a perfect, crowd-free summer getaway for the people of Dubrovnik.

Rocky beaches lead the way towards the virgin clear waters. A touch of history will leave you breathless with fortress Fort Royal, abandoned Benedictine monastery or a small botanical garden. Lokrum hosts Maximilian’s summer villa, built by the Habsburgs at the end of the 19.ct, becoming popular after serving as a scenario spot in the top serial The Game of Thrones.

Lokrum is an ideal spot for those who seek tourist-free zones providing an undisturbed private nest inside the bare rocks, naturists’ favourable destination. A genuine experience is also floating in the salty lake connected to the sea.

Answers to Your Queries

Dubrovnik is a living museum, a treasure of Baroque, Renaissance, and medieval churches and palaces. Coffeehouses on Stradun, a stroll along the city walls, a visit to the Rector’s Palace or performances during Dubrovnik Summer Games are must-do activities when visiting beautiful Dubrovnik.

We would say that spending 3 days in the Dubrovnik is the absolute minimum. You’ll spend at least 2 days just sight-seeing, 1 extra for museums, beaches and restaurants. If you want to stay longer, charter a yacht and sail to the Elaphiti islands.

High season in Croatia runs from June through August and is the most popular time to visit Dubrovnik. If you want to escape the crowd, April to mid-June and mid-September to mid-October are the best choices.

Croatia - Dubrovnik

The glorious city of Dubrovnik has had writers and poets wax lyrical about it over the centuries. Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw called it “heaven on earth”, as well as dubbing it the “Pearl of the Adriatic”.

Merge this legendary beauty with a luxury yachting vacation in Croatia, and you will most certainly feel like you have had a taste of paradise.

There is a wide selection of marinas in Dubrovnic: Marina ACI Dubrovnik, Marina Gruz and Yacht Club Orson marinas are all conveniently located near the historical city centre. The Rector’s Palace, Pile Gate, the starting point of any old town tour, the ancient city walls and city harbour, are all within easy reach from here.

If Dubrovnic seems somewhat familiar, the reason is probably this: some of the hugely popular, award-winning television show Game of Thrones has been filmed here. King’s Landing, the Lannister family stronghold, is, in fact, to a large extent Dubrovnik. Outer walls, fortifications and the narrow streets of the old town serve as the backdrop to many of the show’s scenes.

From the north of the city walls, you will have sweeping panoramic views of Mount Srdj. If you want an aerial perspective, take a cable-car ride up or tackle the meandering walking trail. In clear weather, you’ll be rewarded with fine vistas of the islands of Lokrum and Elafiti.

A treat at the trop is a meal at the Panorama restaurant, taking in majestic views towards Dubrovnik, the coast, and the endless blue of the Adriatic.

For a culinary cultural immersion – a memorable dinner at a spot favoured by locals — consider Pantarul. It’s a charming, contemporary restaurant in the Lapad area, away from the busy city centre. It’s praised for its friendly service, wide selection of excellent local wines and mouth-watering traditional food made from the freshest local ingredients.

Konoba Bonaca is recommended for its fresher-than-fresh farm-to-table cuisine. You’ll be greeted by intoxicating smells of the fresh bread they bake daily. Azur Dubrovnik, which merges Asian and Croatian cuisines, is known for its prawns, tuna steaks, noodle salads and meatballs. In short, it’s worth visiting Dubrovnik for the foodie experience alone.

Magical as it is, Dubrovnik can be overrun with tourists and cruise-liner traffic, so if you’re after some tranquillity, flee to any one of the many nearby islands — Korčula, Lopud, Mljet or the Elafiti islands, a small archipelago consisting of several islands stretching northwest of Dubrovnik.

Within just a few hours of cruising on your yacht, a whole new world will open up to you: secluded beaches, hiking trails, diving spots, and much more. Island hopping lends a whole new element of fun, adventure and access to any destination — just another reason to opt for a sailing holiday and charter a yacht for your next vacation.

Yacht Charter in Dubrovnik

Dubrovnik yacht charter

Anyone setting eyes on this quintessence town would be jaded by Dubrovnik's limestone streets, baroque buildings, and the Adriatic Sea glimmer. It would be un understatement to say that Dubrovnik has emerged from the ashes since its gruesome shelling in 1991. Since then, visitors have left the city in awe of its magnificent beauty, falling in love with the ancient city wall and the fairytale-like ambiance. Walking through the old town of Dubrovnik feels as if we are roaming through a museum. Embark on a journey to witness the splendid display of Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque churches, fountains, monasteries, and palaces. Dubrovnik is a city of sophistication, elegance, and culture where celebrities have succumbed to the medieval and antic charm.

Why charter a yacht in Dubrovnik?

Dubrovnik's yacht journey is a world where aristocratic palazzi, medieval time, and sturdy fortification govern most of the itinerary. There are millions of reasons to charter a yacht in the iconic capital city of Croatia. Plunge into the splendor of Dubrovnik as you find anchorage in the marina and explore the ancient city. You will be fascinated by the town's splendid architecture, in fusion with the modern and opulent amenities flourishing. Chartering a yacht in Dubrovnik isn't complete without an expedition to the golden sand and shimmery beaches. Two to three kilometers from the western side of town is the Lapad Peninsula, where you could enjoy the beaches, sea kayaking, and scuba diving. Yacht chartering, above all, in Dubrovnik, is a kaleidoscope of sightseeing.

What are yacht charter prices in Dubrovnik?

Dubrovnik's yacht charter is closely linked to the season, usually rising during the high season. Sailing during the high season is, on average, at $500 for a catamaran to $400 for a sailboat. If you prefer motorboats, you will find a wide range for a day-use starting from the hundred to the thousand, depending on the usage, size, and amenities onboard. Dubrovnik is a highly sought destination where yacht charters are rapidly booked. Start looking as early as November for a fleet during the high season.

When is the yachting season in Dubrovnik?

The optimum time to sail in Dubrovnik commences from May to October. As a coveted destination in Croatia, the holiday season, that is July and August, is the busiest month in the calendar. Outside of these two months, you may enjoy the warm weather without the touristic buzz. Located in the Adriatic Sea, Dubrovnik is an ideal playground as the weather is calmer from April through October. The rest of the months, the capital city experiences strong winds, brought by the winter season, and is dangerous for yachting.

Dubrovnik yacht charter for a day

Embarking from the medieval city of Dubrovnik, charter a yacht for a day to the Sipan island. Two miles away from the opulent marina in Dubrovnik town, the Sipan island is a typical Mediterranean figure. A place where fig and olive trees, vineyard, and citrus groves have found their root. In cohabitation with the verdant valley is the historical monument standing in the small villages. As you find an anchor in the port, find your ways to admire 15th and 16th architectural residences, remaining churches, and chapels dating from the Renaissance. West of the Sipan island, you may anchor at Jakljan, admire the luscious green forest's harmonious shade and the blue sea horizon. Jakljan will capture your heart with its heavenly quietness and air of exclusivity.

Dubrovnik yacht charter overnight

Charter a yacht overnight for a two days exploration of the magnificent islands in Croatia. Start at the rich isle of Korkula island and relax at the quiet coves and sandy beaches. Blending with the blue scenic view is the traditional heart in Korkula island. For an authentic journey, get yourself acquainted with the ancient religious ceremonies, folklore music, and dances performed to tourists' delight. For the wine gourmet, Korkula delicately produces one of Croatia's best white wines, where you may sample at Cara and Smokvika. Continue your journey to Lastovo, as the farthest island from Dubrovnik. Lastovo is a historical gem and a place where you could fully admire the architectural intricates in churches and chapels. The island is graced with natural abundance for the nature lovers, and you may find delight in taking a promenade on the soft sandbank, sailing in the turquoise water, or wander through the Lastovo Marine Park.

Dubrovnik yacht charter for a week

Yacht chartering for a week starts at the picturesque capital of Dubrovnik. Timeless beauty and a place where you could admire the relic of the past, Dubrovnik is seasoned with narrow streets, grand harbor, and deep history. On day two, navigate to the fascinating island of Mljet for a peaceful getaway. Covered with a myriad of pine trees, turquoise national parks, and very few inhabitants, Mljet is the hideaway. Pair your escape with the small town of Pomena, where you could ride to Malo Jezero and Yeliko Jezero. This space is ideal for the active wanderers for kayaking, paddling, or cycling through the splendid park. On the island of Lastovo, moor at Luka Velji Lago, an unspoiled haven rooted in the 15th and 16th century Renaissance architecture.

During the summer season, Luka Velji Lago lights up with its famous Carnival and musical festivity. On day four, fall head over heels in love with the splendor of Vis. With an air of Mediterranean ambiance, Vis is a verdant alley, practically free from the massive horde of tourists and a place where you will live spoiled with ancient ruins and secluded beaches. Across the Lastouki Kanal, you will find an island called Hvar. Hvar is a great town with a charming open central plaza that draws most of the attention. Reputed for its lavender fields and jewelry shop, a stop at Hvar is a different melody. Not without a hint of regret, leave Hvar's dock for the mesmerizing town quay of Trogir. With a breath of Venetian architecture, Trogir has an admirable fortified castle and shops influenced by Italian culture.

Wedding yacht charter in Dubrovnik

In symphony with the lush backdrop, yacht charter for a wedding will set you for an unforgettable celebration. For a romantic ambiance, plan a cruise at sunset to observe the sun slowly shedding away from Dubrovnik's mystical city. Sailing along the city walls, share a private moment with your precious friends and family, and explore the city's enchanting panorama.

Luxury yacht holiday in Dubrovnik

On a private tour in Dubrovnik, sail around the Adriatic Sea for authentic and luxury discovery. You will visit the most spectacular hotspot onboard your luxury yacht in the capital city, starting from Dubrovnik. The Adriatic jewel is an invitation to dive in the Ottoman and Renaissance remaining in the city while finding the purest moment in the neighboring islands.

Welcome to a place where your toughest decision will be whether to start your day with a coffee or with a refreshing cocktail. The second hardest thing for us was checking out on Saturday. Thank you Ardura crew :)

Nicholas G.

Last summer we went on a family sailing trip on Ardura, which was the best experience and we have the best memories of each detail of the trip starting from the complete crew. They were all great and gave us all the best service 24 hours a day. They were always happy and willing to give us the best experience. I hope one day soon we shall be able to repeat this trip again.

Victoria I.

Our plan was to charter a motor yacht from Dubrovnik, but it wasn't available for our dates. Pjero helped us find an alternative, and we chartered the Acapella sailing yacht from Dubrovnik to Split. The yacht was brand new, and the trip and the service were outstanding. It was such a wonderful experience.

Thank you for the wonderful experience and smooth communication. Sara made the process painless, and I can not wait to visit Croatia again. Great experience with these guys!

We were two families and rented Nautitech 56 for a day in Dubrovnik. It was one of the greatest holidays. The captain was super friendly and attentive. We visited Elaphiti islands, went cave-diving, and had a great lunch on one of the islands. I give my best recommendations to Dubrovnik Charter and Pjero, the owner.

Croatia Motor Yacht Charters

In recent years, we have seen our clients favoring larger motor yachts for their Croatia yacht charter. Responding to this demand, our Croatia motor yachts have notably increased in size. Our top-tier vessels can now comfortably accommodate larger groups while offering first-class amenities and comforts that were seldom found on yachts a few years back. If you are planning a Croatia luxury yacht charter, a motor yacht will allow you to make the most of your itinerary, taking you to Croatia’s top charter destinations. – Set off from Dubrovnik, Split, Sibenik or Zadar and prepare for an exceptional charter vacation on the stunning Dalmatian coast. Enjoy beautiful national parks, water activities and the historic cities of the Croatian Riviera.

Why Charter a Motor Yacht for your croatia yacht charter vacation

Compared to sailing yachts or catamarans , motor yachts have shallower draft , allowing them to enter smaller and shallower inlets, as well as anchoring closer to beaches. They are comfortable, spacious, well-equipped, and most importantly – they are the fastest on the sea . In our experience, A Croatia luxury yacht charter on a motor yacht is the best way to explore the wonders of the country’s major island chains ensuring you get the most out of your time.

Croatian yacht charter itineraries include island hopping comparable to the  “Caribbean”, commonly lasting 8 days and 7 nights. The efficiency of a crewed motor yacht charter also grants you the ultimate freedom. Not only can you fit more into your itinerary ; if you find yourself in a port you don’t particularly like, you can simply pull up anchor and get somewhere better in a short time . Enjoy the cruise on your private yacht at top speed when island hopping or exploring the hotspots of the Croatian coast.

Additionally, unlike other popular yacht charter destinations where docking space is restricted, Croatia allows charter guests the freedom to drop anchor anywhere they want. For example, right in front of the beaches, granting an exotic experience and allowing direct access to the most pristine swimming   locations.

Croatia motor yachts, typically locally owned , are often captained by the owner himself or the owner’s son. This is a huge benefit guaranteeing a top charter experience based on extensive experience and local knowledge . When you book your Croatia Motor Yacht Charter, you can be sure that you are in the best hands.

$30,000 - $90,000

Unlike many other popular charter destinations, Croatia allows large luxury motor yachts to charter 6-36 guests. Larger motor yachts have custom-built interiors, expansive living quaters, onboard facilities such as fishing gear, scuba gear and water sport toys.

Best time for a yacht charter in croatia.

The high season for Croatia yacht charters spans from July and August . This is by far the bussiest time as well as the hottest. If this does not appeal, you can opt for pre-season or post-season yacht charter. The Croatian climate is warm enough, with mild winters too, giving you a bigger window during which to find the perfect motor yacht for your Croatia yacht charter. The months of May-June and September-October are quieter and less crowded as far as anchorages and routes are concerned. During this time the motor charter rates are considerably cheaper  than during the high season, especially for popular destinations such as Dubrovnik .

How to Book a Croatia Motor Yacht Charter

Ideally, you’d inquire about a Croatia motor charter 12 months in advance . WHY? The best motor yachts are often fully booked  long in advance and it’s not unusual to see popular dates booked  2 summers ahead  for a Croatia yacht charter vacation . Inquiring less than 6 months ahead often means that your first choice is unavailable for charter. Additionally you might find that the motor yacht you want, can’t make it to the port where you wish to commence your yacht charter.

Crewed Yacht Charters for large Groups (12+)

One of our top destinations for large groups charters is Croatia. I you are looking for luxury yachts able to accommodate groups larger than 12 people , or you are looking for more room for the money , Croatia is a great location.

In Croatia, luxury yachts that carry more than 12 people are legally considered passenger ships . Our ‘large group’ -Croatia charter yachts are registered to take more than 12 people per charter. (Some of our largest luxury yachts can accommodate 30 – 70 guests .) Be aware that the crewed yacht charter price ranges significantly. Inquire with your broker to learn about the price of specific yachts.

Old vs New Yachts and how if effects costs

In the world of yacht charters, the choice between a new or an older vessel is not merely a matter of aesthetics or initial yacht price; it significantly impacts the overall fuel consumption , and consequently, the overall cost of your croatian charter vacation and the environmental footprint of your maritime journey.

Newer yachts , often equipped with state-of-the-art technologies and engineering advancements, tend to be more fuel-efficient . Modern engines and design innovations contribute to a smoother, more economical ride through the waves. While the initial charter cost for a new yacht might be higher, the potential savings in fuel expenses can make it a more sustainable and cost-effective choice in the long run.

Where to take your Motor Yacht Charter in Croatia

Croatia is known as “The Land of 1000 Islands”, and has indeed, over one thousand islands, of which only about 50 are inhabited. Previous clients quote it as "a paradise of unspoiled landscapes" due to its pristine beaches and anchorages, picturesque coves, and crystal-clear waters. As well as the islands, the Dalmatian coast on the Croatian mainland offers some of the locations featured in the popular “Game of Thrones” TV show and the James Bond movies, as well as UNESCO World Heritage sites and world-famous scuba diving and snorkeling spots. A few of these spots include Blue Cave (in Biševo Island), Kornati Islands ( variety of marine life, including dolphins, sea turtles, and colorful fish), and Velebit Channel- popular among experienced divers due to its strong currents and abundance of marine life.

• If you are booking for a multi-day charter and your reservation is confirmed more than 30 days in advance, a deposit of 50% of the cost of the yacht is processed immediately in order to hold the yacht. Once your embarkation date is 30 days away, the other 50% is collected for the price of the yacht, plus the APA, plus the taxes due.

Terms of refunds are dictated by the Charter Agreement. Generally, once a payment is collected, it is non-refundable. In certain circumstances, as dictated by the Charter Agreement, credits can be provided so you will be able to enjoy your yacht charter at a future date that is convenient for you.
