Sailing in Croatia - an amazing experience It is easy to capture favourable winds among such a number of islands as exist in Croatian territorial waters - whether blowing from the land or the sea. The strength of wind and waves is not unusually excessive, but should you have had enough just sail for the nearest sheltered bay. When the wind dies down - continue to enjoy the calm of the sea! Fully equipped sailboats of various categories (with or without a skipper) can be hired from any one of the dozens of marinas situated up and down the coast and on the islands. Yachting clubs and marinas are numerous and well equipped. We are reccomending sailing regio at Zadar, Sibenik und Dubrovnik . |
