The Dalmatia has many superb coves for free anchorage. The places are easy to navigate but beware of storms which can be violent The cost of living however has exploded with the changeover to the euro and is sometimes more expensive than in France.

ACI Marina everything is professional, the sailing area is very beautiful, but much too expensive as far as port fees and food are concerned.

We chartered for our first time in the region for 1 week. We had a really nice stop off every evening and so many anchorages to swing into for lunch and a swim. We barely scratch the surface in terms of the places to stop and visit. The sailing area also provided us with a variety of options and courses to choose from which was necessary due to the strong winds!

My positive feedback starts a week before the charter when contacted to let me know that we were expected and answered a couple of questions we had in advance of our arrival. On arrival the boat was in good condition as advertised. Everything worked. Handover was friendly and thorough. We had a great time exploring the islands off Split. On return the hand back was equally friendly, fair and thorough. The office staff were helpful and friendly holding some crew bags for a few hours.

We had an amazing catamaran cruise and can wholeheartedly recommend both the skipper and the Catamaran “Mala” for short or longer trips. The boat was clean, very well maintained, and extremely comfortable. Everything was perfectly organized and always on time, while communication was smooth, friendly, and professional from start to finish. What made the experience truly special was the skipper himself — kind, approachable, attentive, and highly professional. From the beginning, he made everyone feel safe and comfortable on board by giving clear instructions and taking great care of the entire crew. He also created a fantastic atmosphere, choosing perfect moments for group photos, sunset stops in beautiful bays, and port visits. The cruise was safe, relaxing, memorable, and incredibly enjoyable. We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for great organization, a welcoming atmosphere, and unforgettable sailing memories Once again, thank you!

Had a really great trip with Domagoj as skipper. The boat was clean and as described, and the company was very accommodating in customizing our trip for a shorter itinerary in the midst of high season, with us showing up on an off day. Domagoj brought us to beautiful, quiet, out of the way places, which was exactly what we hoped for as a family with children. Unrelated to the charter, the only sour note was, we were scammed by the taxi on the way out. He took my wife for a huge detour, charging 48 euros for what should have been a 1 km trip. Then, he actually charged the credit card for 133 Euros. So, avoid Domi i Jela Taxi at Split ACI Marina

We had a wonderful time. The boat was exactly as advertised, the staff were friendly and very helpful and the sailing was great fun. I would thoroughly recommend a charter with Nautika Centar Nava. Croatia is a very beautiful country and the sailing is excellent. I will definitely be back to explore again as the possibilities are endless. Many thanks.

Les Dalmaties présentent de nombreuses criques superbes pour un mouillage gratuit. Les lieux sont faciles à naviguer mais attentions aux orages qui peuvent être violents Le cout de la vie cependant a explosé avec le passage à l´euro et est parfois plus cher qu en France.

If you are chartering a bareboat yacht, be sure that you have a valid license as well as a VHF certificate, as they are both required. Port authorities will check both of these documents along with your nautical CV to determine if you have enough experience. For example, if you charter a catamaran, you will have to prove that you had previous experience with a similar boat.

If you do not hold a valid license or do not have enough experience, you can charter a catamaran with a captain. A huge perk of having your own captain is they are locals and from the region.
