Costs of Yacht Rental in Croatia
The cost of yacht rental in Croatia varies depending on several factors, including the size of the vessel, the location, the time of year, the number of people, and whether you opt for a bareboat or skippered charter.
On average, renting a sailboat in the high season ranges from €2,500 to €6,000 per week. Catamaran charters in Croatia range from €6,000 to €10,000 per week, for those seeking more space and luxury. Sailogy offers flexible options, allowing you to hire a skipper for an additional €1,200 per week or choose a bareboat charter if you prefer to captain the vessel yourself.
When to Charter a Boat in Croatia?
The best time to charter a boat in Croatia is during the summer months, from May to September when the weather is warm and the sea is inviting. During this period, you'll experience steady winds, typically ranging from 10 to 20 knots, perfect for sailing. The gentle Maestral wind in the afternoon provides ideal conditions for a smooth and enjoyable sail.
However, if you prefer a quieter experience with fewer crowds, consider chartering in the shoulder seasons of late spring (April to early May) or early autumn (late September to October).
