This is how it is going to be...
You step aboard, and the dedicated crew greet you with a warm smile. This yacht is your home. Your cabin is spacious and luxurious, with ensuitebathroom. The yacht itself is a work of the shipmaster's art, and as you unpack, this trim little vessel is straining at anchor to whisk you off to exotic places. The captain and crew know and understand this cruising ground, and are delighted when you take the helm. They are content to let you relax and unwind. You savor the delicious meals prepared especially for you by your crew asyou move each day to a new anchorage, another new adventure. There is no need for taxis, no worry about cars. You let the crew arrange activities, maybe a sightseeing excursion or any other pleasure for you. A good amount of your cruise is spent at anchor, and you take your time and explore the sandy beaches and clear, blue waters, or simply relax on board. All you have to do is enjoy. You will be allowed to change plans, routes and itineraries according to your desire and captain's recommendation.

Croatian coastal islands
"The gods wanted to crown their creation and on the last day they turned tears, stars and the sea breeze into the isles of Kornati" so said George Bernard Shaw of just a part of the spectacularCroatian coastal islands. These 140 islands, islets and reefs make up the northern part of the cruising grounds available to the yacht charterer. The larger islands between Split and Dubrovnik entice with beautiful tree lined coasts, villages steeped in history, gorgeous beaches and bays, all within the background of coastal mountains dropping straight into the sea. It is no wonder that Croatia is the crossroads of East meetingWest and Central Europe meeting the Mediterranean. The ubiquitous myriad historical towns show ancient Rome, Byzantine, Romanesque, Renaissance influence. Such is the experience of the charterer in these crystal clear and remarkably clean waters. Tourist facilities are in full operation, including modern marinas, and the larger towns ofSplit and Dubrovnik offer some of the best of European cultural events but there are plenty of opportunities to visit the tiny, unspoiled villages with a window on an older way of life. The Croatians will open their hearts to you, showing their welcome with a shy friendliness that is warming and genuine. Language is not a problem as English is spoken to a great extent along the coast and coastal islands.

Sailing Conditions
The waters are deep, clean and welcoming. Winds are moderate for the most part of the spring, summer and fall. There is an occasionally strong north wind called the"Bora" but this only blows for a day or so at a time. Along the coast and on some islands are a series of modern marinas that offer pierspace, electricity, fuel, water, laundry, shower and shopping facilities. Other docking facilities include town piers or bays for dropping anchor. And then there are the numerous beautiful beaches for solitude..... The most crowded period is July and August when sailing enthusiasts from Europe flock to the coast but the months of May, June, September and October should not be overlooked for quieter visit to this unspoiled coast.
