Croatia Yacht Charter
We are happy to announce that our Agana marina is now open. Please be aware that additional entry requirements and restrictions may still apply for this destination.
Overview
The Dalmatian Islands in Croatia are among the most famous in the Mediterranean region. Wild, rugged, and hiding a thousand-year history, many are protected as national park and and offer a varied and diverse cruising ground for an Agana yacht charter holiday. The cruising is splendid, encompassing long and short passages to charming anchorages amid rocky islets, ancient villages steeped in history, and translucent waters.
An Agana yacht charter typically focuses on the more than 30 islands off the central Dalmatian Coast near the city of Split, including lovely Šolta, Hvar, Vis, and Brač. The Kornati National Park lies to the north, with a mostly barren landscape. So many small and large islands are in the park that it has been likened to a maze of unparalleled natural beauty. Pristine beaches, lively nightlife, fine cuisine, secluded coves, fascinating historic sites, and an unspoilt natural setting make an Agana yacht charter an unforgettable adventure on the water.
