With Sail Croatia it is really for those aged between 18-28. Anyone above 30 and you feel a little out of place. These days everyone is traveling in groups of 2-6. Gone of the days of solo travellers from my recent sail where there was only 4 of us solo travellers. It does make it a little harder to meet people but I guess at the end of the day it really is a luck of the draw. It definitely is a good experience. Just prepare to be oboard with a bucket load of aussies haha

This is a well organised & experienced company who deliver what they claim. We visited scenic port villages, ate well, did some cycling (not as much as we wanted due to inclement weather) and made new friends from around the world. The crew & guides worked really hard to meet the varied needs of the guests.

My Sail Croatia trip was great. My trip manager Marin did an incredible job, he was efficient, organised, helpful and caring. He made sure we were all looked after and always had everything sorted so we never had to figure anything out on our own. We were given great suggestions for each place and I felt he personally got to know us all individually which meant a lot. An experience I really appreciated was when I wanted to go home early from a night out and Marin personally went with me and helped me get home, it meant so much to me. The trip itself was great and the team accommodated us with the changing weather well and always had our best interest in mind. Thanks so much for all the hard work!

What made our trip so great was the country of Croatia! It was our first time visiting, and it was amazing. Our sailboat, Morpheus, was beautiful and spacious. And to top it off, our captain Marko, was phenomenal! He was very experienced and incredibly knowledgeable. The arrangements he made for our group were the best! Without being over-the-top, our safety was his first priority. He shared his love for sailing and for his country with us, which was very pleasing to hear. Our group enjoyed each stop and his recommendations were spot-on. We would definitely recommend this trip to others. Thank you.

Our vacation experience with Sail Croatia was excellent and memorable. Having cruised in Europe, Caribbean and Alaska on much larger ships we were looking for a new cruise experience: Sail Croatia delivered a new, higher level of cruising intimacy to us. The yacht Salle Di Mare was unique in terms that it is a mix of traditional design coupled with modern elegance. There were plenty of areas to relax and enjoy a tranquil cruise around the Croatian islands. It's a very intimate experience unlike the large cruise liners. You get to meet the crew and see them working every day. You mingle all the time with fellow passengers and make new friends. And you have this against a backdrop of picture-perfect islands, historic sites, and blue (clear) water. Plus, our cruise had 6 out of 7 days of sunshine, and on the day without sun we had indoor wine tasting :-) As an endorsement, we are already planning another Sail Croatia cruise!

What an amazing trip. Our group of four couples chose Sail Croatia due to its unique vessel size (16-20 cabins) and itinerary. Our expectations were exceeded by Vicko, the Sail Croatia representative on the trip, as he made sure all of our problems were solved, and we had an amazing trip - he is one of a kind and absolutely the Croation fixer! The crew of the Salve di Mare was fantastic. The boat was clean, the room sizes were surprisingly large, and they all worked to make sure we had everything we needed - plus great food and drink. Make sure to take opportunities to go off the beaten path - find unique experiences and take advantage of the ones the Sail Croatia team provides where it suits your interests. We were able to discover so much - we ate a fish the owner of a restaurant speared that morning and cleaned on the dock. We took a rowboat to a monastery on an island. We climbed a mountain (ok hill) overlooking a beautiful town on the Adriatic. Take this trip!

We came back a second year to sail with Ivan and Luce and were once again very pleased. While the weather was not as wonderful as last year (so bay swimming from the boat limited), Ivan took care to get us into the best ports with the best protection from the weather. He is an excellent skipper. Luce gets 5 plus plus plus as hostess. Her cooking was outstanding, as well as her help on dinner bookings and island activities. All very well worth it!

Had a great time on the trip. Jasko, Anita, Nikolina and Nino were all fantastic. Darrio is the hardest working man I have ever seen. Captain was attentive to the weather conditions and made educated changes to the itinerary with minimal inconvenience.

What a great trip and sail, Crew did an amazing job, and we're always happy and friendly. Food was great, our cruise director Nikkos was always ready to help, and did a great job organizing our excursions. We will highly recommend sail Croatia and the ship Katerina to my friends and family. 😀

A comfortable ship crewed by an exceptional team and hosted by lovely knowledgeable hosts. The itinerary with cycling included was and varied and just the right distance and the information provided by our hosts prior to and during the rides was relevant, helpful and interesting. Although we had weather interruptions towards the end of he week, our crew and host did all they could to ensure we still had a fulfilling trip. The food was superb and plentiful prepared by an excellent chef who was a wonderful character and served by a most well mannered and delightful waiter who kept a clean and tidy salon. All crew were friendly, helpful and for whom nothing was any trouble. These are great holidays for meeting and spending time with new people who become friends. This is the second time I have taken a holiday with Sail Croatia and have loved both trips. I would book again in a heart beat if there was an itinerary that gave greater variation from the two trips I have now done.

Marco our Skipper was outstanding and very in gauging. He was very knowledgeable of where and what we wanted and ensured that everything we needed was taken care of. He made our trip so pleasurable that we would most definitely request him personally again. Thank you Marco!

I recently had the pleasure of spending an incredible week sailing through the stunning Croatian coastline aboard the Kapetan June, and I can confidently say it was an experience I will cherish forever. From the moment we set sail, the adventure was nothing short of extraordinary. Our week was guided by the amazing rep, Jessica. From the very first day, Jessica's enthusiasm and professionalism made a big difference in our experience. She was always available to answer questions, share local insights, and organise fun activities that brought the group together. Her passion for Croatia and its culture was infectious, and she genuinely cared about ensuring that everyone had the best time possible. Thank you, Jessica, for making this trip so memorable! The crew on Kapetan June were friendly, attentive, and worked tirelessly to ensure our comfort and enjoyment. Their seamless teamwork helped create a relaxed atmosphere that allowed us to fully embrace the beauty of our surroundings.

We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise on the Tempera. The staff and crew were fantastic keeping us fully informed of the daily itinerary and working hard to make our holiday as comfortable as possible. The food served onboard was excellent with a range of tasty well presented dishes. Dino our Sail Croatia cruise director was friendly and polite with an excellent knowledge of the local towns we visited. The boat was looking a little tired in places but this did not spoil our holiday in anyway. Would we use Sail Croatia again ? Absolutely!😁

Had a great time. My highlight was the spots the boat stops for swimming at in the morning are amazing, the boat generally stops at a peaceful spot where no others are and the water is beautiful. The chef catered fantastic to a vegan diet, the food was always delicious and well thought out. If you are looking for the party experience you will find that, generally you are docked with other boats and there is music and drinking into the night. If you aren't looking for the party experience, this might not be for you, but probably ask as there may be options to dock away in more quiet areas. There is generally plenty of time at each port you dock to explore the location if you are inclined. The guide will have a list of activities you can sign up for that may take all or some of the day, but you can also go your own way.

I had no expectations with coming to Croatia. I was pleasantly surprised to be greeted by such a wonderful place (Split & surrounding Islands). The food & wine surpassed my expectations. France & Italy are synonymous when it comes to food and wine but I would say Croatia is just as good if not better. Sailing with Sail Croatia on Manilo was great. Ivan our Skipper was very experienced & knowledgeable and was such a pleasure to have him show us around the islands and recommend excellent places to visit, eat & swim. Thank you Sail Croatia for such a wonderful experience and big thumbs up to Ivan our Skipper. We will be back at some point.

The whole experience for the week was incredible, the staff on board were fantastic with the guidance for excursions and places to go and not to go at night. Along with that, they joined in with conversation and were very easy going, at times forgot they were even staff on the boat and felt they were just more mates of ours on the boat. The stops for swims and day events we had went awesome and wouldn’t change a thing for the week we had! Was an incredible week.

This trip could not have been so well run and awesome without the support of the trip guide Marin. Marin was so knowledgeable, patient, and understanding with our group and really made the whole trip flow smoothly. This was my first experience with sail Croatia and it was one of the best travel experience of my life between the sightseeing and exploring and nightlife. The crew was also super nice and the chef was excellent, Lunch everyday was so good! All around this was such a fun trip and I highly recommend it for those traveling solo or with a friend!

I did Sail Croatia (Split return South route) on Pacific with Saša as a tour guide. Given Saša is a local, he was able to provide the tour group with first hand knowledge and tips regarding the destinations, optional excursions and things to see and do to enrich our sail week. Saša was also able to ensure all of the tour were involved, welcomed and accounted for within daily sail life and group activities. Saša’s sense of humour and understanding of foreign (especially Australian) culture also enabled him to easily relate to and bond with all of the tourists on board. In my opinion, Saša is the PERFECT tour guide for sail Croatia and I could not recommend him more!

Everything was well organised and I didn't have to think or make decisions and after having solo travelled it was a nice change. The guide was really good at her job as well as the crew. They parked the boat is unbelievable spots to have a swim each day, and the boat was always really clean and immaculately looked after. There was a good age range of people on the boat, and all kinds of travellers from couples to people doing it solo.

Our host, Dino, was fantastic. He and the Captain made the necessary adjustments to our route so we could see the significant sites yet be protected from the weather. Dino was outstanding at communicating the daily agenda and making recommendations. He was very engaging and a key reason for the fun we all had. The group size was ideal for giving us all an opportunity to meet one another.

Sail Croatia needs a boat dedicated to solo only travellers. My experience was fun and thoroughly enjoyed it although it was somewhat difficult to socialize with others as they were glued to their friend until roughly day 5 where everyone started to branch out and really connect as a group.

She brought great energy and made it easy for us travellers to know what was going on for that day and provided great recommendations for things to check out at each destination! Sail was a great week of partying and chance to meet new people who I will never forget!

Our yacht is well maintained, modern, clean and spacious. Hosts, Crews, and guides are friendly polite and knowledgeable. Meals are delicious. Croatia coast sea is calm. Sleep in the yacht is pleasant. No worries for sea sickness. Every night in different towns, different beaches without packing, unpacking and bus around. A truly must have experience.

I was on big blue. The environment the entire week was exceptional. All people bonded almost instantly which made things so much more fun. Jess continually helped the culture of the boat by pushing for family dinners and events to which we could all do. These memories are irreplaceable: The crew were incredible too, boat was exceptionally clean and everything was beyond expectation.

Bartul and Miranda were the best guides! They did a great job discussing the history and culture of the areas we were biking through. They were charismatic, patient, fun and genuinely interested in everyone on the ship. The presentations of the upcoming bike rides were informative and prepared us well for the difficulty of each ride. Bartul and Miranda went above and beyond to make our vacation amazing!

Mother Jessica was an incredible tour manager, brought great energy and was always there to answer questions and find us fun stuff to do like drinking games (Rabbits). She went above and beyond the Call of Duty, and didn't at all look like a 12 year old boy. She's also a good person (despite being an only child), an excellent dancer (below average bike rider) and very knowledgeable. If she's not the CEO of the company by the time I return, you will have to answer to me, and my particular set of skills. Big Blue was crewed by a bunch of absolute legends, who were always ready to get the party going, and were always accommodating of our needs (1 million beers at 9am) and wants (food). All in all, would give 6 stars if I could Meow

As a group of 4 mates from England, we wanted a holiday where we could travel around some of Croatia’s best places in the most enjoyable & sociable way possible. So we chose SailCroatia - and I’m so glad we did! There was 35 of us on the boat - a mix of UK, US, Australia & New Zealand - and everyone had a memorable time. Going into the trip, the only things I was nervous about was the accommodation and the food - but I needn’t have worried. The rooms were comfortable with power showers, and then the food was delicious every day. The crew did such a good job cooking; there wasn’t a bad meal all week. Thanks so much to Lucia & the team. We started in Split and ended in Dubrovnik, but my personal highlights were Korcula & Hvar. Our rep Callum took us to all the right places and was such good fun all week. He did a great job. Besides the places we visited, I also loved the swim stops each morning👌 Overall, I would 100% recommend Sailcroatia. I wish I could it all over again.
