The Dalmatian coast is a yachting destination that has it all, with the perfect mix of laid-back luxury, island authenticity, outstanding cuisine and customs, and striking yet secluded seascapes. Dalmatia dazzles yachters from around the world who gather in droves to the southern part of the Adriatic Coast in the summertime. Croatia’s most famed region for luxury yacht charters has an abundance of islands and islets, hidden coves and bays, culinary prowess, and tried-and-true traditions that come together to form a genuine experience of this coastline. Your Dalmatia yacht charter will have a taste of it all, whether you’re into UNESCO heritage and history or outdoor adventures and opulence.
When is the best time to visit Dalmatia on a yacht?
Thanks to the agreeable Mediterranean climate, the hot and dry summers mean there is no better time to book your Dalmatia yacht charter than during summer. As most travelers flock to Croatia from June to August anyhow, this is no surprise. And thanks to mild and wet winters and pleasant off-season weather, your cruise of the Dalmatian Coast can begin as early as April and continue well into October when the never-ending summer weather lasts a bit longer than it should. That is not an uncommon occurrence in Dalmatia, after all.
Must-visit destinations on your Dalmatia yacht charter
Explore Dalmatia’s most famous town Dubrovnik, one of Croatia’s most-visited destinations, where beautiful medieval walls captivate anyone on vacation in Croatia. Move up the coast to the enchanting Elaphiti islands archipelago, onto the ‘mini Dubrovnik’ island town of Korčula, and unearth the mostly untouched island of Vis. The famed Hvar and Pakleni islands archipelago are a luxury yachter’s dream, while the seaside city of Split has so much more than Diocletian’s Palace and is the perfect starting point to explore the nearby islands of Brač and Šolta. Šibenik sits on the coast as the only town in Croatia with two UNESCO heritage sites and prime access to the well-known Krka waterfalls. And then there is Zadar, a popular summer city from which you can discover the nautical paradises of Kornati National Park and Telašćica Nature Park, with the chilled islands of Dugi Otok, Pag, and Ugljan within reach.
Your Dalmatia yacht charter impresses with some of Croatia’s best bays and beaches, from Sakarun and Veli Žal in the north to Zlatni Rat and Stiniva in the south. It is a region with UNESCO heritage, ancient architecture, and cuisine founded upon the revered Mediterranean diet. Whether looking for casual homestyle meals at traditional tavern restaurants, relaxed island lunches, or fancier Michelin-star dining along the coast, Dalmatia offers something for all tastes.
Take the day to explore the best of the Adriatic Sea, or hop off and head inland for an adventure into Dalmatia’s hinterland. No matter which coastal town, tiny village, or remarkable monument you meet on your Dalmatia yacht charter, your vacation will surprise you with authentic hospitality and a charming look into local life dressed in a Mediterranean landscape that’s hard to beat.
