Croatia

It is as if the Croatian coast was specially created for yachting. Whether you’re looking for a reason to take up sailing or looking for the perfect spot to express your sailing prowess, Croatia welcomes you with plenty of emerald green islands, rocks artfully stretching out of the water, sandy and pebble beaches, and the cleanest water of the Adriatic Sea, the shades of which range from gentle turquoise color to dark sapphire. Add numerous historic towns and cities, which have survived ups and downs of civilizations from Ancient Rome and Byzantium to the Austro-Hungarian Empire and Yugoslavia, and you’ve got yourself an all-star vacation.

Each era has left its unique mark on the landscape of Croatia. Explore these treasured sights at the Arena in Pula, the Palace of Emperor Diocletian in Split, the Euphrasian Basilica in Poreč, the Old Town in Dubrovnik and Trogir, and many more. Like admiring a fresco in a museum, a sea cruise allows you to view all the richness and splendor of the local coast from a perfect distance. Take advantage of this ideal vantage point.

Popular sights

The most famous, the most popular, the most splendid city of Croatia is certainly Dubrovnik, it’s not without reason that UNESCO included it in the three most beautiful places in Europe together with Venice and Amsterdam. The stonewalls of the Old Town, numerous architectural monuments, museums, palaces, cathedrals, and residential houses under orange tiled roofs rise above the turquoise-coloured waves of the Adriatic Sea. The coast here is full of comfortable beaches and cozy bays, and snow-white yachts slightly roll in a dignified manner by the piers. If you find yourself in Dubrovnik, you should definitely walk along Stradun, which is the main pedestrian street, the Luža Square, and along the old harbor. Pay a visit to the Prince’s Palace, the Cathedral of the Assumption of Virgin Mary, the Franciscan Monastery, and the Sponza Palace. After sightseeing, you can enjoy a meal in local restaurants where you should definitely try home-made wines and seafood dishes like oysters and mussels from the bay in the town of Ston.

There are two things to know about the island of Brać: the first, involves white limestone and the second, regards a rather peculiar beach. The white limestone, known as Brać limestone, is mined in local quarries. It was used to build the Palace of Diocletian in Split as well as to face the White House in Washington D.C.. Zlatni Rat is the name of the most unusual beach on the Croatian seacoast. It is located in the small fishermen’s village of Bol and has a unique feature – its southern end can change shape depending on the waves and wind. The beach stretches out into the sea for 300 meters, welcoming bathers from both sides. If vacation time on the beach is not included in your program, you should at least drop into the town of Supetar and buy a bottle of famous local wine Bolski Plavac.

The history of Zadar consists of a chain of conquests, destructions, and restorations. You can see traces of many eras everywhere you look: ruins of the Ancient Roman forum, the Church of Virgin Mary in Roman style, Byzantine era Orthodox churches, and the Loggia from the time of the Venetian rule. The city’s advantageous location on the Adriatic Sea coast, mild climate, and numerous islands in the vicinity made it highly desirable land. Today you should visit Zadar for its Old Town, Široka Street, and the Church of St. Donatus, which has become the symbol of Zadar. The Sea Organ built in 2005 adds some modernity to the local architecture; each time it creates a unique melody with sounds made by underwater pipes. Zadar hosts many festivals and concerts all year round, most of which take place in summer.

Among a variety of Croatian cities, one should visit the medieval city-museum of Trogir. Uniquely situated partly on the mainland and partly on the island, Trogir’s fairytale streets are dotted with old cathedrals, ornate palaces, and stoic temples. Trogir is a brightly coloured magic box, unlike any other city. The historical center of the city earned a spot on the UNESCO World Heritage List thanks to the exquisite mix of Baroque, Renaissance, Gothic, and Roman styles. The old basilica, Cathedral of St. Lawrence (Lovro), serves as a primary sight of Trogir. Its bell tower may become a fine orientation point in the maze of narrow medieval streets. For an aerial view of the city, climb to the top of the Kamerlengo Fortress. Nowadays, the fortress serves as a venue for theatrical and musical performances. It’s highly recommended to try local delicacies at the Fishermen’s Nights - the longstanding city festival.
