Trogir Sailboat Charter

Three reasons to charter a sail boat in Trogir

Captivating scenery all week long

Trogir’s appeal is split between its amazing architecture and stunning Mediterran vegetation full of rural charm. Why not charter a yacht one of National Geographic’s most beautiful island cities? Spend the day discovering the vineyards, olive trees, and wild flowers of the Pantana side of Trogir. Make sure you wake from your cabins early and leave the marina to take in the crisp morning air of Croatia, sailing the beautiful coast and taking in the details, smells, and sights of the budding and blossoming nature of Trogir. Although you may not want to set an alarm for your yacht charter holiday, it is a small price to pay to see the most breathtaking scenery of Croatia aboard your Bavaria cruiser, catamaran, or whichever boat you charter. Ask your skipper for recommendations on where best to appreciate the natural landscape or, if you choose a bareboat charter, get some information before your yacht leaves the marina!

The best marina at a great price

When you charter a yacht in Trogir, you will more than likely stay in the berths of the marina on the northern side of the island, just across from the old town, which is open all year round. With 162 berths and 35 places on land for any boat, the marina will easily facilitate your yacht, whether you have chartered a catamaran, Bavaria cruiser, or luxury yacht. Each of the berths in the marina is equipped with water and a power supply included in the price (details on the marina website), and there is wi-fi available onshore. You can also avail of the grocery store, a gas station, numerous supermarkets, toilets, showers, a laundry service, cafes, and restaurants. Choosing to charter in Trogir means you can benefit from a competitive price for services compared to other marinas in Croatia including Split and Dubrovnik, yet you can still have an amazing week sailing the Adriatic with your skipper or on your bareboat rental.

Sweet climate of Croatia

With an average temperature of 30 degrees every week in summer in Croatia, a yacht charter in Trogir is certainly sunny and bright. Explore the dazzling Adriatic waters and romantic Riviera coves and bays, sailing under a cloudless sky. The Maestral wind, which averages at 16-20 knots, is light and breezy meaning you can gently cruise along in your boat charter with ease. These azure seas are perfect for trying your hand at snorkelling or another type of water sport during the day. The best months for sailing and swimming in Croatia are June-September but you or your skipper should check details of the weather forecast regularly on VHF watch channels before you leave the berths of the marina in Trogir.

Festivals in Trogir

Trogir Cultural Summer Festival

This famous summer festival takes place in the streets of Trogir and consists of a series of classical and chamber musical ensembles. Popular among locals of Croatia as well as tourists who are visiting for a week yacht charter, this festival details the town’s rich history, culture and tradition. Split your time between sailing and a party every night until you have to return to your cabins in the berths of the marina, and make sure to ask your skipper for recommendations on the best bars.

Trogir meets techno in this vibrant award-winning festival of techno and electronic tunes in Croatia. The town opens its doors to an extraordinary 10,000 guests every day (including those sailing on their boat for the week), yet the festival still manages to attain a vibe which is intimate. Perhaps the Trogir setting contributes to this; like the name suggests, you dance away to funky bass tunes and hypnotic electric beats under the light of the moon in the grounds of the enchanting Kamerlengo Fortress. Be sure to check for details on dates and price of the festival, as this is one thing not to miss during your yacht charter in Croatia.

When you return to the cabins of your boat in the marina, you may still hear the music in your ears.
