Our Sail Croatia experience was above and beyond our expectations. The boat Adonis was perfect and had great space and facilities, but what made the trip was the amazing crew: Marin, Dina and Petra as well as captain Rocco and our lovely rep Lauren.

We had an absolute blast. We did the tour for my husbands 30th with some friends and the crew even baked a cake one day for him. The crew and Calum our guide were really great, always so helpful, organised, friendly and engaging. The cruise is a perfect blend of explore, swim, resting and reading and Ill recommend it to anyone. We were also privileged with great group of other travellers and made loads of new friends :) Thanks to Sail Croatia and Calum and his crew for a memorable holiday!

Being on sail was one of the most memorable weeks of my life. I met so many new people and had the best guide Nour she was so kind, friendly and accommodating she definitely made the experience. She taught us so much about each place we were going and did her best to help us with anything we needed. She encouraged games which allowed us to all get to know each other and become so close by the end of our experience. I will definitely be referring sail to all my friends and appreciate having Nour as my guide and hope to have her again.

Mia our guide and the entire crew of the Katarina worked so diligently to give their guests an unforgettable experience. The ship was beautiful and was kept in pristine condition. The food was gorgeous and catered very well also for we vegetarians. We enjoyed the daily swims, and of course the excursions on the islands in the fabulous weather. A highlight for us was meeting very interesting and lovely people from all over the world. The holiday of a lifetime!!

Had to go on a Sail Croatia because honestly, I’d have no friends left, it’s all anyone talks about and now I get why. It was genuinely the best week of my life, and my only regret is not booking a longer sail. Not only was the whole experience amazing, but the crew made it feel like home. Despite how busy they were every day, they always had time for a chat, and I got to know them all personally, which I absolutely adored. Even after the sail, Nour still took the time to show us her favourite spots in Dubrovnik. I feel like I’ve made a friend for life because she treated us all like friends, not guests. I’ve never had a host go so far out of their way to make our experience better. All up, I’m so grateful I got the chance to experience a sail Croatia and think I will be talking about it for the rest of my life.

The week I spent with sail Croatia was beyond impeccable, from the delicious and generous meals onboard to the many wonderful activities and excursions offered at every stop. That being said it was truly the honest and passionate work of our boat manager/guide Nouraïa which made the whole experience unforgettable , her extensive knowledge of history along with her unwavering kindness and playfulness tied the group together. I made many friends during the last week and it’s all thanks to sail Croatia, would highly recommend!

The most amazing week. Our boat manager Nour was incredible - she was well organised, fun and kept us up to date with everything in the day through our boat what’s app group. Andrej our bartender was also fantastic. This week wouldn’t have been the same without the Afrodita crew. Would recommend this trip highly to all.

I did the Split to Dubrovnik trip end of June 2025 and had an amazing time. Noura our guide and the boat staff (particularly Andrej) made the experience an extremely memorable one and I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about booking. Noura was very knowledgeable about local history and had a relaxed and friendly vibe that made her feel like one of the group rather than staff. Her and Andrej went above and beyond to make sure we all had the best experience.

Sail Croatia was an amazing week. Incredible swim spots. I was on the boat Afrodita, the crew were amazing. The bartender Andrej was a superstar and our tour guide Nour was great! Nour had great recommendations on local restaurants and activities and had good knowledge on each towns history. Thankyou Sail Croatia

I was with a friend on the tour in a small group of 10 people and we had the best time sailing around the Dalmatian coastline and seeing the beautiful towns and islands of Croatia! Our skippers Matea and Dino made us feel so welcome in their space and joined in the party vibe which made the tour so much more fun! One week on the boats and such great memories and many more friends! Only a couple lost items along the way.

We sailed on the Katarina from Dubrovnik to Split. This was our second Sail Croatia trip on the same route, but a different ship last time. The ship is family run and you can tell it's their passion. The Katarina is a great ship, plenty of sun beds, and seating areas, perfectly working air conditioning in the cabins and a good shower. Of particular note were the excellent crew. The Captain Ivan and the girls Ivanka and Angela serving us particularly need a special mention. They were all great fun at the Captains Dinner and seemed to be having as much fun as we all were! Cleanliness on the ship could not be faulted. The sailors were always cleaning, and we usually had the shiniest cleanest ship in the harbour. The food was excellent - quite large portions but that's hardly a complaint by most! The Tour Manager was Mia and she was absolutely fabulous, she was knowledgeable and friendly, with an excellent sense of humour. We will definitely be back!

My friends and I booked the SailCroatia trip together and we had the best time. We loved the early morning coffee and quiet time above deck each morning to begin our days. Our daily bike rides through quaint little villages were definitely the highlights of the trip. We always had time to look around and enjoy a delicious iced coffee. Our guides took our safety seriously and always made sure we were comfortable and confident while riding. Spending time in the cities where we docked nightly was also a blast. Our guides provided information on local favorites and arranged private tours to wineries and family dinners. These experiences were awesome and allowed us a look into the daily lives of the people we met along the way. I highly recommend the sailing/biking cruises.

We had an excellent trip, that was faultless. The crew and guides were very attentive, and kept us up to date with information and options for excursions. The food was great, vegetarian options were flavourful. I would highly recommend this trip.

We’ve just returned to the UK after what can only be described as a fantastic holiday experience onboard the Katarina. The boat was lovely as were all the staff who went out of their way to make us so welcome. Mia our Sail Croatia representative was very helpful and knowledgeable. The holiday was out of this world and we don’t believe you will find a better experience anywhere else. We will be back.

The staff of our boat, including Dino as the key organizer and communicator, created a unique, fun-filled, and memorable trip! There was structure, but also flexibility infused, and the overnights in the beautiful ports were helpful for each group to make the trip their own - exploring, eating, indulging, etc. Loved everything and would highly recommend!

I can’t recommend Callum enough – he made our Sail Croatia experience absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we stepped on board, he created such a fun, relaxed, and welcoming atmosphere. His energy was infectious, and he always went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having the time of their lives. Whether it was helping us discover hidden swim spots, hyping us up for the night ahead, or making sure we were all safe and comfortable, Callum was the ultimate host. Thank you for the memories – already planning the next trip!

I recently returned from a cruise in Croatia. From start to finish, it was the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and jaw-dropping beauty. Scenery: Absolutely stunning. The Coast is everything you’d imagine—crystal-clear turquoise waters, dramatic cliffs, charming old towns, and lush green islands. Staff: The crew was incredible—friendly, professional, and always going the extra mile to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Food: Delicious! Every meal was a treat, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients and a variety of options. From fresh seafood to Croatian specialties, everything was beautifully prepared. There was always something new to look forward to, and they catered well to dietary needs, too. Activities: One of the highlights for me was e-biking around the different islands. It was such a fun and effortless way to explore off-the-beaten-path villages, vineyards, and scenic coastal roads. All in all, this Croatian cruise exceeded my expectations in every way.

Had the most incredible week with Explorer Sail Croatia, made even better by our amazing guide, Callum. From day one, he made the experience feel personal and unforgettable. He struck the perfect balance between fun and chill, tailoring recommendations to suit everyone – whether you wanted to explore or just relax. Callum’s local knowledge, energy, and attention to detail truly set the tone for the whole trip. He created a great vibe, made sure everyone felt included, and took us to some unforgettable spots we never would’ve found on our own. It felt more like travelling with a good friend than being on a tour. Highly recommend – and if you get Callum as your guide, you’re in for a real treat!

What an awesome way to see a beautiful country whilst simultaneously meeting great people with similar lifestyles and values to yourself. 1. The crew The crew were so accommodating. The bar services was consistently great, the food significantly exceeded expectations and the activities they organised (quiz, bing, etc. were good fun. 2. Our host Francesca was amazing! she was able to foster a community and play a part in turning strangers into friends. As someone who previously worked in a similar role with university students, I admired the way she was able to balance between being our friend and our guide. Overall, loved the trip and was very grateful for all the people (the crew, Francesca and our fellow ‘Sail Croatiaers’) who contributed to making it such a success.

The ship was fantastic, roomy and stylish! The cabins and in particular the bathroom was also very spacious! Much larger than I expected. The staff were so happy, professional and friendly 100% of the time. Our cruise coordinator Ana needs a special mention! She was unbelievably welcoming and extremely helpful and professional. I was unfortunate enough to have my suitcase not turn up in Split. Ana was unrelenting in trying to locate it and have it returned to me!! I can’t thank her enough - she was amazing! I will definitely be recommending Sail Croatia to everyone! It was one of the best experiences of my life!! Thank you and I hope to be back again with your company! Simply wonderful!!

hi! unfortunately, the experience didn't align with what i expected. a few examples... - we were on a sailboat chartered by a company named Sail Croatia, I expected we'd sail at some point. I was disappointed to learn upon boarding that the sails hadn't been raised in years. Instead, we awoke to a running engine every morning. - I expected lots of swimming and time in the water along the Croatian coast. Instead, swimming was limited to just an hour or two per day. - Because the boat didn't have a tinder, we couldn't pull up to beaches on those swim stops and could only exit the boat in larger port cities - Instead of offering hot breakfast for an hour and continental breakfast beyond that, passengers could only access food from 8am-9am and were told to snack on a banana if they missed that short window. the boat captain was wonderful and the crew exceptional,the itinerary and schedule were not.

Hi Gina, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you had a positive experience with the captain and crew, they will be very happy to hear your kind words. We're however truly sorry to hear that your experience didn’t meet your expectations. As per our website, our vessels are traditional-style sailboats and they primarily operate under engine power for reliability and scheduling purposes. That said, we do offer sailing holidays with our Private Yacht Tours. On these tours, you will use a dinghy to go ashore, to the beach and within secluded bays, so perhaps this was more the experience you were looking for rather than one of our cruises you had booked. In terms of swim stops and beach access, we aim to offer daily swim opportunities, where possible. The ships do need to keep to a schedule, and take into consideration sailing times, weather, port traffic and other activities planned, so the time guests have to swim from the ship does need to be limited. Once the ship arrives into port, the islands have many beaches and locations for swimming, so guests can go for a further swim if they choose to do so. As for the breakfast timing, we’re sorry you felt it was too limited. I will be sure to pass these comments onto our Operations Team in Croatia. Thank you again for your review Gina!
The crew were amazing and so knowledgeable, made the experience that much better seeing all the wonderful parts of Croatia

Me and my friend travelled with Mala Kate and the crew last week and to say it was fantastic would be an understatement. Elena and our crew were the absolute sweetest people we could have asked for. Not only were they crew they were friends with everyone which made our experience so much better. We would not change a single thing about our week with sail and who we met and shared memories with. Elena is one of the nicest girls I’ve ever met and the most incredible rep. All up sail croatia was an unforgettable experience and one that will be sadly missed. To all the crew, you guys made our week unforgettable, We will miss you so much :(

I have just ‘completed’ my sail Croatia, where unfortunately our boat Tvrdi broke down on day 3/8. This was unfortunate butI could not have asked Sail Croatia to handle it any better. Their customer service was amazing, so although we ended up missing more than half of our cruise, they still provided us with a partial refund, some free activities, free transport from Dubrovnik to Split and an amazing representative on our boat, Emma. It was unfortunate circumstances that we didn’t get to complete the cruise, although I was still able to enjoy my time and create wonderful friendships in the positive environment Sail Croatia made for us. Thank you Sail Croatia

Being able to cycle and see the places we visited with local knowledge guides. E Bikes makes it much easier and open to a wide variety of abilities. Stopping at every port and trying out local restaurants was also nice.

Ana was amazing about coordinating events/excursions and making sure that we were all having a great time, and the crew of Esperanza made sure that we all felt so taken care of the entire week onboard, This will be such a hard vacation to top. The swim stops every day were beautiful and each port in Croatia was unique and fun in their own ways. 10/10 would recommend.

From the beginning of the trip Ceili and the crew were so welcoming and so accommodating to everyone’s needs, they made it feel like we were apart of a family! Marijan was great behind the bar and looking after everyone in the lunch and breakfast times, such a gentleman! Ceili became everyone’s friend she felt like an older sister to me by the end of the trip, such a kind and caring person who made the experience 1000 times better! The crew and the captain were also so great and kind to everyone and great at their job! The chef was amazing and so was the food she cooked, every meal was outstanding! I would recommend this crew and this boat to anyone and everyone as you are destined to have the time of your life. I was so sad to have to leave when the trip was over especially to leave my new best friend Ceili. 1000/10 experience, what a week Thankyou so much to all the staff Ceili our rep and everyone else who does so much work to make these trips possible.
