Sailing Itinerary from Skradin, Croatia

Depart on your 7-day sailing holiday from ACI Marina Skradin. It is the perfect starting place for a week-long sailing itinerary, with plentiful amenities. Sail the Dalmatian coast towards the town of Primošten and its picturesque peninsula. As you approach Primošten, its white limestone houses with red-tiled roofs will be visible in the distance. Anchor or moor in one of the secluded bays or berth in the marina. Step off your boat and explore the town's ancient churches, including the 15th-century Church of St George. We highly recommend a visit to the Bucavac stone-laced vineyards, an illusion of "stone lace" wrapped around vines from Bucavac hill to the deep blue Adriatic Sea. Relax on Mala Raduča Beach, one of the best beaches in Croatia, to end the first day of your yacht charter.

Continue your yacht charter towards Šolta, known for traditional fishing villages, honey with therapeutic properties and olive groves. Soak in the scenic coastline and the panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea on your sailing holiday. Anchor in one of Šolta’ sheltered bays, Šešula, Uvala Necujam, or berth in Stomorska or Rogac marinas. Explore the charming village of Maslinica and its Romanesque churches, and Renaissance and Baroque buildings from Venetian times. Visit one of its many beach bars or dine in an authentic Greek restaurant.

Hoist the sails and head towards the island of Hvar, renowned for its vibrant nightlife and stunning landscapes. Admire the rugged cliffs and hidden beaches on the Dalmatian Coast. Visit the Pakleni Islands, a group of islets directly across from Hvar; they have beautiful beaches, quiet harbours, and many excellent restaurants. Navigate around the islands until you find the ideal location, then drop your anchor and take in the tranquillity of the sea. Explore Hvar's historic landmarks, such as the Hvar Heritage Museum, the Cathedral of St. Steven and Hvar Theatre. Continue to Palmižana and discover its beautiful bays, crystal clear water and excellent restaurants, to end day 3 of your yacht charter.

Set sail towards Brač, boasting the highest peaks of all the islands in the Adriatic Sea. Hike to the highest peak on the Vidova Gora trail and be rewarded with stunning panoramic views of the Adriatic. Explore the white-pebble beach of Zlatni Rat (Golden Cape), located near Bol, a popular spot for windsurfers. Visit the postcard town of Supertar and its horseshoe shaped beach. Snorkel or scuba dive to see many marine species, such as vibrant fish and sea turtles, in the Adriatic's pristine waters. Divers can explore several diving sites on the island, including shipwrecks and underwater caverns.

On day 5 of your yacht charter holiday, sail to Rogoznica, a fishing village in the southernmost part of the Šibenik-Knin County. The coastal village is renowned for the mystical Dragons eye lake. Visit the lake, that contains several layers of water, each with different colours. You can also swim in the saltwater lake! Explore the beaches dotted along the 50km coastline, such as the pebble beaches of Šepurina or Miline.

Sail towards the historic city of Šibenik. Dock at one of Šibenik’s many marinas or anchorages, such as Marina Preko or Brgulje. Explore the city’s ancient fortresses, including St. Michael’s Fortress and St. Nicolas’ Fortress. Do not miss the opportunity to visit the architectural wonder of the Cathedral of St. James, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy a Šibenik sunset from your boat to end your sixth day of sailing.

Conclude our sailing itinerary with a return journey to Skradin. Don't forget to tidy the boat before you complete final check out! Do not miss the chance to visit Krka National Park. Although sailing is prohibited in the national park itself, as the low Skradin bridge blocks the entrance, you can take a boat tour or discover the park from land. One of the most beautiful destinations in all of Croatia, the park boasts lush greenery, wonderful waterfalls and turquoise rivers. Explore Skradinski buk, a group of 17 spectacular waterfalls to end an amazing yacht charter in Skradin!
