Croatia Catamaran Charter – Largest Selection of Crewed Catamarans
A Catamaran Charter in Croatia reaches almost “Caribbean” quality as far as island hopping goes. The Croatian Coast has many smaller islands in close proximity to each other, which is exactly why many clients prefer Croatia to Greece, where the distances are much more dramatic.
A typical one-week crewed catamaran charter in Croatia includes visits to popular destinations like Hvar, Trogir, Brač, and Korčula and the more secluded destinations like Mljet and Kornati National Park.
The catamaran fleet keeps growing in Croatia, with more people moving away from simple bareboat catamaran rental and looking for the elevated experience of crewed catamarans—a compelling alternative to staying ashore in overcrowded, overpriced towns fully booked months in advance.

- With its double-hull design, a catamaran charter is more stable than a monohull, making it a safer option for first-timers, kids, and elders on a luxury boat trip.
- The Catamaran layout grants more spacious interiors and exteriors great for families and larger groups.
- Shallow drafts are best for navigating shallow waters and anchoring closer to the beaches.
- New Catamarans are built with luxury amenities matching motor yachts but are much more affordable.
- Catamarans have a much smaller fuel consumption than motor yachts, significantly reducing the overall charter price.

Catamarans vs Sailing Yachts & Motor Yachts
When comparing a power catamaran to motor yachts in terms of onboard space, a power catamaran often provides a living experience comparable to that of a motor yacht that is 15-20% longer.
This means a 70-foot power catamaran would typically be matched against an 80 to 85-foot motor yacht when it comes to the amount of usable space.
During these times of rising fuel costs, catamaran cruises stand out with their ability to sail, which results in far smaller fuel costs. Not to mention the opportunity to completely shut the engine off and enjoy a smooth sail with only the whoosh of the wind and the waves parting as a soundtrack.
Catamarans also have a unique feature called the trampoline, a squared net at the bow that reduces the risk of capsizing and increases handling and performance.
It allows water to pass through quickly and reduces the weight forward of the mast. Trampolines can also be used as a place to sit and relax, and in our experience, kids absolutely love them!
Power Catamarans – A Good Half-Way Option
If you are not completely sold on the sailing vacation, a power catamaran might be for you. With a power catamaran charter, you get the best of both worlds:
- Better stability than motor yachts and sailing boats.
- More space (extra now there is no space occupied by mast and winches)
- Better fuel efficiency
- A power yacht for a cheaper rental cost

What Does a Catamaran Charter in Croatia Cost?
The price range for a charter catamaran Croatia is wide, starting at around €10,000 per week and reaching over €450,000 for a high-end luxury charter catamaran (such as ‘THIS IS IT’, a 2024-built 143-foot Tecnomar) with a large crew and all the facilities of a superyacht.
Note that these charters are nothing compared to a simple catamaran rental, where you have to do and know everything yourself. A crewed catamaran charter in Croatia is a next-level vacation stay with a captain, chef, cleaner, and knowledgeable guide, all included! It’s a dream vacation!
To give you an idea, let’s take a look at two sailing catamaran rental offers:
Mala
If you are looking for a low-range catamaran in Croatia, Mala is a popular one that starts from just €13,900/week and can accommodate up to 6 guests.
“…their hospitality was exceptional.“
★★★★★
“Our one-week sail with Sanja and Zoki was spectacular and far exceeded our expectations. The boat was comfortable, Sanja’s cooking was superb, and their hospitality was exceptional. As for the boat owners, they kept the boat in tip-top condition and tried and managed to please us in every way. Not only do I recommend Cat Mala, but I look forward to rebooking soon! It was the trip of a lifetime. Croatia’s coast is magnificent!“
7X – SUNREEF 80
7X-SUNREEF 80 is one of the most popular luxury catamaran charters. It comes with state-of-the-art facilities and high-end amenities. Here is what the guests of 7X had to say:

When is the Best Time to Charter a Catamaran in Croatia?
July and August are the high seasons, with heat and hubbub all around the Croatian coast. If this does not appeal, keep in mind that you can opt for pre-season or postseason to rent catamaran, as the climate in the area is warm enough, with mild winters too, to consider a wider time window during which to find the perfect yacht for your Croatia charter.
The months of May-June and September-October are quieter and less crowded as far as anchorages and routes are concerned for any yacht rentals, also the charter rates are considerably cheaper than the high season, especially for popular destinations such as Dubrovnik. It is advised to book well in advance to rent a yacht charter, some of the most popular dates and luxury yachts are booked two summers ahead.
Where to Go on a Croatia Catamaran Charter?
A typical Croatia catamaran charter will start at Split International Airport. Cosmopolitan, colorful Split has a rich history and culture, with over 20 museums and galleries.
Conveniently, most of the marinas are located just a short distance west of Split, making them easily accessible from the airport. These include Marina Baotić, Marina Agana, and ACI Marina Trogir, all of which are specialized in catamaran charters.
From your starting point on the Croatian Mainland, you will then set off to the Croatian Islands, and you are in for a treat!
One of the highlights is The Kornati Archipelago, located just off the Coast of Croatia in the Adriatic Sea. It is home to the Kornati National Park, one of the densest island clusters in the Mediterranean, consisting of over 150 islands, most of them very small and very close to one another.
Note that to visit the Kornati National Park, every visitor needs to obtain a ticket in advance for the particular time and duration of the visit. Tickets can be purchased online and at mobile reception desks at key points of the park, and their price can range from 20 euros to several thousand, depending on the size of the sailing yachts. – When you rent a crewed catamaran in Croatia, we take care of this for you.
Mainland Croatia also has a lot to offer, among which the medieval city of Dubrovnik, Trogir, a Unesco World Heritage site, which, for reasons that will become obvious at first sight, is also called the Little Venice of Dalmatia.
OUR FAVORITE SPOTS
Here are some of the MUST-VISIT destinations for a Croatian Yacht Charter, including Hvar, Dubrovnik, Split, and the Mljet National Park. Each of these destinations offers unique experiences, from the lively nightlife of Hvar to the rich history of UNESCO World Heritage Site Dubrovnik’s Old Town. Split offers a great mix of ancient architecture and modern amenities, while the National Parks provide secluded anchorages and stunning landscapes.
Check out our recommended Sailing Itineraries:
Kornati National Park
The Kornati archipelago is a must-visit destination for Croatia yacht charters. With numerous secluded bays, crystal-clear waters, and untouched nature, the Kornati Islands offer a unique sailing experience. Many of the islands are uninhabited, providing a pristine and peaceful environment.

Louis was great from beginning to end and walked me through the whole process. He helped me find a great boat that fit within our time and cost preferences. He explained the differences between the different builds and the pros and cons. Once we selected the boat, he explained and walked me through the whole booking process and answered all my questions. Finally, he checked in with me before, during, and after the charter to make sure everything met our expectations. I can’t recommend Louis enough if you are planning a charter, and I will definitely be in touch for our next trip!
