Our Commitment to Sustainable Tourism
In 2016 Sail Croatia founded Green Sail, a non-profit organisation that promotes and supports sustainable tourism in the Croatian nautical industry.
"We started Green Sail as a way to lead initiatives that will protect and promote sustainable tourism along the coastal communities we rely on" - Grant Seuren, Sail Croatia Director
