Alongside planning your perfect itinerary, your Skipper Tom, will help you choose the Yacht or Catamaran that's perfect for you and your group. We have access to a large fleet of vessels, so can can scale the vessel type and specification to meet our guests requirements. What doesn't change of course, is the service - we'll be visiting the same beautiful destinations, and eating the same delicious food whichever vessel you choose. What's included? Firstly, we don't believe in hidden fees - our charter price is final, so when you get to us, all you have to do is relax and enjoy! All of our charters include the following: - RYA Yachtmaster certified Skipper, to get us to where we need to go, and to ensure that the time you spend at sea is as memorable as the awesome destinations that we'll be visiting - Private Chef/Host there to ensure your stay with us is comfortable, and to prepare food on the go - 7 days and 6 nights onboard - Breakfast and lunch, as well as drinking water, tea and coffee (BYOB) - Lovingly crafted itinerary, personalised to meet your preferences and a new destination (weather permitting!) every night - Bed linen and towels - Showers and toilets onboard Our route: Whilst we can and often do change things up, based on our guests' preferences and factors like the weather, our default flagship itinerary is as follows. We like to alternate between nights spent at anchor under the stars, and nights spent docked in towns, so you can step straight off the boat and explore.. Night 1: Sesula bay, island of Solta: Many charter companies will stay night 1 in the marina, but we like to get out of there and show you as much as possible. So our first stop on the island of Solta is the perfect introduction to Croatia and it's beautiful waters. The bay is approximately 80 minutes from the marina, and once we get there, you'll be free to swim and relax before we head for dinner at the amazing restaurant on shore. The restaurant prides itself on it's traditional woodfire grill, and their freshly caught seafood is to die for. Night 2: Pakleni islands and Hvar: Night 2 we will be heading over to Hvar town for the evening. Our vessel will be docked in marina Palmizana, on the small cluster of islands opposite Hvar town called the Pakleni (or the Devil's) islands, from which we will take a boat taxi in to town. Hvar town is well known for it's partying scene, but to view it only in this light is to overlook it's ancient history! Hvar has it all, so enjoy! Night 3: Gradina bay and Korcula town: Night 3 will take us over to Gradina bay, on the westernmost tip of the island of Korcula. After an afternoon spent swimming in one Croatia's lovliest bays, you will have the option to take an overland taxi over to Korcula town, which is our favourite town on the route, and the birthplace of Marco Polo! Korcula has a more relaxed vibe than places like Hvar, and many of our guests head up to Massimo's cocktail bar on the walled town's ramparts to enjoy a cocktail and the sunset. Night 4: Vis town, island of Vis: By now, you might be realising that the main towns on each island are usually named after the island itself, well Vis is no different! Vis island is about exploring. It was where Mamma Mia 2 was filmed, and has an extremely rich history as a military island. Most recently, it was the lair of the Communist Yugoslavian rebel leader known as "Tito" who, with the help from the allies during WW2, subsequently became the dictator of a united Yugoslavia. The incredibly beautiful island is also riddled with tunnels, gun emplacements and bunkers built during the cold war, which you can explore with local guides. If urban exploring and military history isn't your thing, just grab a scooter and explore the best beaches! Night 5: Garska (Deer) bay: Night 5 will take us across to a real hidden gem, nestled away in the cliffs is a bay now endearingly referred by us as "Deer Bay" due to a population of deer who escaped a nearby abattoir and now call it their home. Garska bay is about chilling, enjoying the exclusive cocktail bar, the amazing restaurant and watching shooting stars. A night to relax and reflect before our final night the following day. Night 6: Stari Grad: Literally means "Old Town" and is one of the oldest towns in Europe. The settlement as we know it today was originally settled by Greek colonists from the island of Paros in 384bc. They came to this place to start anew, and grew olives and grapes in the fertile plans just inland from the harbour. The final night we take our guests to a UNESCO world heritage site called Stari Grad Plan, where the farms that began all those millenia ago are still in use today. Hora Farm has been going continuously since 384bc and as well as still growing grapes, lavender and olives, now operates as winery too! As well as it's breathtaking beauty and sunset, our final night is a great opportunity to try some local wines, and the national dish called "Peka" which is a giant hot pot/stew, cooked in a clay pot under the coals for 4-6 hours. A perfect last evening! How does it all work? Our guests come to us from all over the globe for all sorts of reasons, that's why no two charters are the same - whilst we do have guide prices in our pricing section, to give you an exact quote, we will need the following from you: - Your preferred week(s) - all of our charters run from a Saturday to Friday, and our season runs from mid May to mid September (give or take) so firstly let us know which week(s) you and your group are available - Which type of vessel you'd like to charter with us - we can provide both monohull Yachts and Catamarans. Each have their own pro's and con's, which we have detailed in the vessels section - Number of guests. Whilst this does not impact the price of the charter, it will help us find an appropriately sized vessel for your group size Once we have this information from you, we can send you through some vessel options, which will include an overall price for the week, as well as vessel specifications, and photos of the exterior and interior for you to show you friends and family. If you decide to sail with us, we will require a 30% deposit upon booking. We will use this to reserve your chosen vessel, and confirm as soon as it's done, then we can begin the fun stuff and really get to know you and your group in order to craft the perfect itinerary for you! Getting to us Ours is a circular route, which means that you can fly in and out of the same airport. Getting to us is super easy - we are located in Baotic marina, near Trogir. The marina is a 15-20 minute taxi ride from Split airport. Our rendezvous time on Saturdays is approximately 15:00, and we normally aim to arrive back to the marina on Friday at around 17:00
