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

Many thanks to Dora and the Crew of Almissa. A hugely enjoyable cruise, great yoga sessions by Dora with stunning swim stops as we travelled the coast and islands of Croatia. A lot of fun too! Beautiful islands and ports to explore, with the help of Dora’s top tips we had a great holiday and would throughly recommend.

Dora was great, however, the recommended dinner - the one not included- was just *fair* and they over charged us and we were left to deal with paying. I feel like payment is something the cruise director should handle. It was chaotic and a bad way to end our evening. Also, I would have done more yoga, but it was usually just a little bit too early- I was on holiday, so I didn’t want to set an alarm. The only other suggestion: have more drinks for non-drinkers. Don’t run out of Coke Zero. I’m sure non-drinkers are not your normal clientele, but it would have been nice to be offered something else to drink when wine tastings were offered. The last dinner (the one that was included did a fantastic job of that. We felt seen, rather than ignored. Thanks so much. Overall I would recommend this yoga cruise.

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.

Anita and J (Josko) spent time to ensure the guests had a great ride. They are an awesome team. They work very hard to plan and meet challenges that pop up. The surprises to see such interesting people and places was so wonderful and appreciated. They both still seem to have fun - no matter what. I appreciate all they did. The other crew members were also just as dedicated to ensuring everyone had everything they needed. The captain and his crew worked together tirelessly. I will never forget how beautiful Croatia is. What a wonderful experience. Thank you,

We did the sailing/hiking tour around the south islands of Split and every day got better and better! The scenery is spectacular, the water is amazing to look at and even better to swim in! The hikes were such a wonderful way to see the country. Mila and Lola were our fantastic guides and they made every hike incredible. We learned so much and got a great workout in each day. The crew is superb! We had some weather but the Captain did everything he could to avoid it and get us to our next destination. Every other crew member made sure our accommodations, food and drinks were great! ! I would definitely go back and sail/hike with this group of people any day!

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!

The Mali Ante is a beautiful vessel and the crew were amazing. Food was fab and plentiful. Marin and Iliona were super professional and friendly and their knowledge of the areas we visited was amazing. They are a credit to your company.The bikes were great quality and easy to use. Never having e-biked before I was unnecessarily apprehensive however Marin took the time to explain gears brakes and power mode and I was soon flying around. We hit some stormy weather but our Captain was on top of it at all times and made made sure we were all ok. We missed one port of call which was a shame but safety must come first.This is my second trip with Sail Croatia and there will be plenty more. Great company I would definitely recommend having an adventure with them. You won’t regret it.

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!

I can truly say that my week on Sail Croatia aboard the Kapetan Jure, sailing from Split to Dubrovnik, was one of the most magical experiences of my life. Despite a few days of rough weather, Jess, our incredible Sail rep, went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time possible, and she definitely succeeded. Her boundless energy and enthusiasm were infectious, always made sure everyone was having the time of their lives. Jess didn’t just guide the trip, she made it unforgettable. Without her, I wouldn’t have had such an extraordinary experience. The entire crew was fantastic, too! Papi, our captain, knew just how to lift our spirits, and his smile was contagious. The chef’s meals far exceeded my expectations—some of the best food I enjoyed during my entire trip through Europe. Every member of the crew brought so much joy and laughter to our journey. The last night and morning as we said our goodbyes, I couldn’t hold back the tears, I didn’t want it to end! Onto planning the next!

We recently sailed for a group 40th birthday celebration and had the trip of a life time! Can not say enough good things about our experience. This was an excellent way to explore many different places in Croatia. Our group stayed very active, but there were also opportunities to relax on board or at a beach nearby. Our Sail Croatia representative, Vicko, was key to a smooth trip. He met with us daily to go over our itinerary for that day and the next, give us a historical overview of the village/city we were about to explore, and was always there to answer questions or solve any unexpected problems that came our way. We also loved that we had the opportunity to make new friends with our fellow guests. Met people from all corners of the world! The boat never felt crowded, the rooms were comfortable, and food delicious. It will be hard to top this trip!

Our Skipper Duje was wonderful. His excellent sailing experience and regular 'check-ins' to see how we were all doing made for a very relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable week of sailing in beautiful Croatia! I was very nervous about being 'out there on the high seas' but with Duje's confidence in his skills and putting our safety and well being as being the #1 focus each day, I soon felt calm. Our hostess Nola, was lovely and we really appreciated her talent to cook delicious meals! We would definitely recommend Sail Croatia and especially engaging Duje to Skipper a Charter. Warm regards Jenny and Terry

We embarked on a memorable journey aboard the Salve di Mare with friends to celebrate our 40th birthdays, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Our lower deck cabin (#13) impressed us with its double sinks and spacious layout. The boat itself was in impeccable condition, providing ample space for all 40 guests to unwind comfortably. Our Sail Croatia rep, Vičko, was exceptional—friendly, highly accommodating, and instrumental in helping us organize various excursions and dinner reservations. Bartender Marko also stood out, frequently engaging with our group and sharing valuable local insights at each stop. The cruise proved to be the ideal size, fostering genuine connections among passengers. As a discerning eater, I initially had concerns about the 3-course lunches, but the meals were consistently delicious, and I always left satisfied even if I skipped a course. I wholeheartedly recommend Sail Croatia and the Salve di Mare for an unforgettable cruising experience.

Had the most incredible week on Sail Croatia! Completely exhausting in the best way - days filled with swimming off the boat, exploring local towns, sunset drinks and then partying until sunrise. Our host Marin was incredible and absolutely made the trip - such a wonderful human with such great energy and always there to help when we needed. Couldn't have imagined a better week if I tried! Would highly recommend.

We were quite unlucky with the weather on our trip which resulted in us having to skip certain locations and miss majority of our activities. Jess was amazing and was very creative in making sure that we had the best experience possible. Our trip could have gone in a very different direction and I couldn't be more grateful to have her as our Rep. Our crew was also amazing and provided the best food. It blew all of our minds how great our chef was. I will definitely be recommending to my friends.

I had an incredible week with Sail Croatia and have nothing but positive feedback. I was fortunate to sail with a fantastic group of people, making lasting friendships and feeling welcomed as a solo traveler. Lauren, my representative, was exceptional—highly organized and always able to lift our spirits. The crew was outstanding, the food impressive, and everyone was approachable and eager to help. I thoroughly enjoyed all the activities, including canyoning, biking, and buggies. Overall, the experience was perfect and ranks among the best things I’ve ever done. Thank you, Sail Croatia and Lauren—I highly recommend this experience!

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.

This was our very first bike and sailing trip and did we ever pick right!! Sail Croatia and the crew working our boat the "Mali Luka" worked hard to make this experience stress free and truly wonderful. Each island we had the privilege of visiting provided some of the most beautiful scenery and exhilarating rides of our lives. We are extremely grateful and highly recommend this type of vacation for anyone who craves a different and special type of holiday. Ride a bike, take a swim in the clear, warm waters of the Adriatic, meet people from around the world on your boat and explore a different village each day. Wow!!

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.

Sail and ride was a great tour. I really can’t fault anything. Organisation was good and always on time. The rides were well planned and the guides were terrific. The ebikes were excellent quality and handled the hills with ease, which made getting through the week a breeze. The food was good, the cabin was comfortable and the crew was extremely efficient. When we hit bad weather and the itinerary was modified these changes were relayed to us in a timely manner and with appropriate explanation. I’m very impressed.

Our Sail Croatia hosts, Anita and Jay were amazing! The bike routes were beautiful and we loved the little surprises Anita and Jay had for us along the way. Also, the whole crew of the Priceza Diana did a fantastic job with hospitality, preparing and serving the delicious food and keeping us safe while on board. I would recommend the Sail Croatia bike trip to anyone and would also recommend the e-bikes unless you are a great cyclist since there are many hills. Everything was so beautiful!

The food served onboard was excellent with a range of tasty well presented dishes.

This was my first sail and cycle cruise so I wasn’t sure what to expect. But I have to say - it was fantastic. The meals were delicious, the cabin was spacious enough for two adults, the captain and crew were hardworking and kept us all safe and comfortable for the entire trip. The guides were absolutely the best - Joško and Anita were so good at communicating each ride, any changes, places of interest and keeping a group of 30+ riders safe every day. If you are looking for a seven day sail/ride (classic or e-bike) I would recommend you look at Sail Croatia first. Can’t thank the crew and guides enough for the excellent friendly and helpful service 👍😀

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.

On Sept 13 we boarded Afrodita with Marija and Tonka as our guides. They were wonderful. Always pleasant and available. We were loving it. On September 12 I had a rather serious accident and that's when they really shone, especially Tonka. After the hospital she found us a room. The next day she took us to a private clinic for more care. She went out of her way to be there for us and I can't say enough. Please be aware that you have a very special employee and both my husband and I will always be grateful for her.
