On our way back down you will enjoy the sparkle below of the seaside settlements.

Sail Croatia Boat Types

Sail Croatia Standard Boats

Sail Croatia CruisesOur Standard Boats are a great option if you want excellent value for money and don’t mind sharing showers and toilets. Operating exclusively on our Croatia Navigator Cruises they are most popular with our groups and younger travellers. Similarly they are very popular with our budget conscious independent travellers on extended travels throughout Europe.

Sail Croatia Ensuite Boats

Sail Croatia CruisesOur Ensuite boats are great if you want the extra privacy and convenience of a toilet and shower in your cabin. The boats are typically a little bigger than our Standard boats in size and because of this take an average of 30 travellers. These boats operate on the Croatia Navigator Cruises as well as our Croatia Traditional Cruises.

 

Sail Croatia Premier Boats

Sail Croatia CruisesOur Premier boats are, as the name suggests, a cut above in terms of space, elegance and comfort. Each cabin has shower and wc, as well as air-conditioning*. Taking an average of 36 guests the Premier boats are larger and newer in design than the ensuite boats. Premier boats operate on selected dates on the Croatia Traditional Route 2 Cruise.
