Croatia Catamaran Charter
We recommend Croatia catamaran charters for guests who want smooth sailing, stability, and the best value for money. The Dalmatian Coast offers almost “Caribbean” quality island hopping. Its short distances and protected waters make it perfect for catamarans, especially for families and first-time charterers.
Most crewed catamarans in Croatia have 3–5 cabins for 6–12 guests and come with a Captain and Chef at a minimum. Meals are tailored to your preferences, with fresh seafood, local produce, and Croatian wines.
Expect days of relaxed island-hopping, swimming in remote bays, exploring UNESCO-listed towns, and trying out new water toys like Seabobs, jet skis, and efoils.
Why Charter a Catamaran in Croatia?
- Stable Sailing: Twin hulls mean minimal rocking—ideal for families and first-time charterers.
- Spacious Layout: A 55ft catamaran often has more usable space than a 70ft motor yacht.
- Lower Fuel Costs: Sail when there’s wind, or cruise efficiently on engines–great for APA savings.
- Shallow Draft Access: Anchor closer to beaches and hidden bays all along the Dalmatian Coast.
- High Value: Less fuel, lower APA, and shared cost make catamarans the most budget-friendly way to charter.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the Best Time to Charter a Catamaran in Croatia?
The best months to charter in the Adriatic Sea are May, June, and September – good wind, warm weather, and fewer crowds. July and August are peak season with higher demand and prices. April and October are cheaper but less predictable weather-wise.
Where do most Croatia catamaran charters start?
Should I choose a sailing or power catamaran?
Sailing catamarans offer a classic sailing experience, lower fuel costs, and the option to harness the wind. Power catamarans trade sails for speed, extra space, and motor yacht-style comfort–without the high fuel bills of monohulls.
