Croatia Yacht Charter
Croatia yacht charters have skyrocketed in popularity, becoming a top choice for Mediterranean yacht vacations. With a rapidly growing fleet of Croatia luxury yacht charters, motor yachts, and a well-established catamaran charter scene, Croatia is no longer just a haven for bareboat enthusiasts—it’s now a premier destination for fully crewed yacht charters.
What makes Croatia so good? With over 1000 islands in close proximity, you can see a lot in a shorter time. (An attractive alternative to Greece’s very weather-dependent Cyclades) It’s home to incredible UNESCO World Heritage towns like Dubrovnik, Split, Hvar, and Korčula, and the stunning Kornati Islands.
Croatia also has friendlier yacht charter legislation. If you’re traveling with more than 12 guests, this is hands down the best place to go, with options that simply aren’t available elsewhere.

Types of Crewed Yacht Charters in Croatia
The Croatian yacht charter fleet consists of a long-established catamaran fleet, the traditional gulet charter fleet, a rapidly growing luxury motor yacht charter fleet with an increasing number of 50+ meter superyachts, and a unique motorsailer fleet, derived from the gulet but larger, newer, and more luxurious.
On any crewed yacht charter in Croatia, you will have a minimum of a captain and a chef on board. For high-end charters, the crew can outnumber the guests and include specialized staff such as spa therapists, masseuses, and sports instructors
Croatia Yacht Charter Highlights
We don’t pull highlights from travel blogs—we get them from captains, crew, and personal experience on the water. These are places where a yacht charter makes a true difference: stunning anchorages in national parks, historic ports best approached by sea, and remote islands that are inaccessible without a boat.
⚲ Southern Dalmatia
SAIL INTO KINGS LANDING IN DUBROVNIK
Sail into Zaton Bay in UNESCO-listed Dubrovnik and walk the medieval city walls of King’s Landing — Climb Fort Lovrijenac (the Red Keep from Game of Thrones) for amazing sunset views. Crowded? Yes. Worth it? Always.
⚲ Central Dalmatia
DISCOVER VIS ISLANDS & BIŠEVO BLUE CAVE
Voted #1 island by charter captains — and we agree. Vis is raw, relaxed, and real. Deep bays, Komiža town, WWII tunnels. Sail west to Biševo for the Blue Cave — go early to beat the crowds. We always recommend a stop here.
⚲ Northern Dalmatia
CRUISE THE KORNATI ISLANDS NATIONAL PARK
140+ islands of raw, untouched nature. Steep cliffs, deep bays, clear water, no crowds. Just you, the boat, and the sound of cicadas. No fluff — this is the wild side of Croatia, and it’s one of the best places to drop anchor.
