Our top pick. The Lagoon 47 hits the sweet spot between luxury, performance, and value, and the first in the range to feature a true flybridge, a dedicated crew cabin, and direct access from the saloon to the forward cockpit.
The forward cockpit has a table and full benches. Aft, the sliding bay opens the saloon to the rear cockpit. The covered flybridge has a side helm, close to both decks. Below are 4+1 ensuite cabins: four for guests, including a VIP, and a separate crew cabin, so guest space stays private. Groups of 10 can also use the crew cabin, with the captain in the small front-right cabin. On confirmation only; no hostess in that case.
Check-in documents, final cleaning, bed linen, towels, a dinghy with a motor, bathroom essentials, kitchen essentials, beach towels, marina eco fee.
From handling the boat to uncovering hidden bays and the best local tables, captain takes care of everything. And for those who want to learn, he's happy to share the ropes.
Fresh breakfasts, relaxed lunches, handcrafted cocktails, provisioning, a clean boat - all taken care of. Not obligatory, but highly recommended.
We believe in fair pricing for a well-maintained yacht, a good marina and a great crew. Cheaper boats will always exist, but not with the same quality and care. Found a better offer for a comparable yacht? Send it our way and we’ll review it and aim to match it.

With a fully equipped galley, she's less hostess, more private chef. Expect quality local dishes, fresh ingredients, and meals that hold their own against the best restaurants ashore. On a still evening in a quiet bay, dinner on board is often the best meal of the week.
Avoid the crowds and get a head start on your adventure. Starting a day early means you'll enjoy peaceful bays, uncrowded restaurants, and empty marinas. Since 99% of charters begin on Saturday, your route will stay calm and uncrowded. It's a true game changer that you'll love.
Enjoy great extras for a perfect trip: 2 free SUPs, snorkeling gear, a hands-on sailing course, and a high-speed dinghy for hidden coves. Plus, a private buoy in Bol, Brač, and convenient online and early check-in without any extra fees.
The Lagoon 47 offers a fifth cabin. A feature rarely seen below 55 feet. The crew has their own private space and bathroom, keeping a clear separation between guests and crew. A well-rested, comfortable crew means better sailing, sharper decisions, and more energy for you. Everyone wins.
The Lagoon 47 has a door from the saloon straight onto the forward cockpit. That used to be a 60-foot Lagoon feature. Step straight from the interior onto a 12 m² foredeck with a fixed table and bench seating, creating an effortless flow from stern to bow. Three distinct outdoor spaces, connected without barriers.
The Lagoon 47's flybridge offers the best of all worlds. A generous sunbathing area to soak up the day, a shaded lounge with a table for relaxed dining or drinks, and a dedicated helm station for the skipper. Guests enjoy their space, the captain focuses on the passage. Everything in its place, nothing in the way.
The Lagoon 47's cockpit comfortably seats up to nine people. Shaded, sociable, and open to the saloon for an effortless indoor-outdoor flow. Whether it's a sundowner, a lazy afternoon at anchor, or dinner under the stars, there's room for everyone. Steps away, the flybridge is always within easy reach.
A watermaker means you don’t need a marina just to refill. Filtered water anytime, and you can stay at anchor as long as you like.
We’re proud to offer over 1.3 kW of solar power, giving you silent, eco-friendly comfort without using the generator. Enjoy full independence with everything running on solar energy.
If this is your first time visiting Croatia, we wouldn’t recommend a one-way sailing trip. It often means longer travel times and missing out on some of the most charming nearby destinations. A one-way is possible, but it is a longer, less convenient week. Dubrovnik has no marina close in, and you lose time on the main island circuit. Better to see Dubrovnik before or after the charter. The taxi from the base is about three hours.
However, if you’ve already experienced the classic routes and are looking for a bit more adventure, action, and variety, then a one-way sailing trip can be an incredible choice. It allows you to cover more ground, discover hidden coves and lesser-known islands, and enjoy a real sense of journey and accomplishment as you sail further along Croatia’s breathtaking coast. It’s perfect for experienced sailors or returning guests eager to explore something new and exciting. Price is 600€ + marina fee, but please contact us for the best option.
Marina or buoy fees typically range from €50 to €200 per night. Anchoring is free, and many seaside restaurants offer complimentary docking, allowing you to avoid most of these charges. Fuel costs are usually around €300 per week, though you can easily reduce this by anchoring more often and enjoying time under sail instead of using the motor.
72-hour free cancellation: if you cancel within 72 hours of booking and your charter starts at least 60 days later, we refund everything you paid.
After that, you can cancel free of charge in case of a border closing (or any other force majeure). Under normal conditions we give you a credit note for your week once we manage to re-sell your boat and dates, and you can use it for a future reservation. Travel insurance from your own insurer is cheap and recommended.
May and October. Quieter bays and better value: fewer boats, lower prices, a slower pace on the water.
June and September. The better middle: reliable weather, lively ports that are not packed, and prices that are still reasonable.
July and August. Peak season: warm water and a busier coast. Popular spots fill up, but a good captain still finds quiet bays. A Friday start helps you leave before the Saturday rush.
Croatia is one of the best destinations in the world for family sailing. Yes – the distances between the islands are short, making navigation easy and relaxing even for beginners. The Adriatic Sea is usually calm, and the countless islands along the coast offer excellent protection from winds and waves, ensuring a comfortable cruise for everyone on board.
Kids usually love it: jumping into clear bays, swimming, and finding beaches you can only reach by boat. Each day brings a new adventure, whether it’s discovering a charming fishing village, spotting dolphins, or enjoying fresh seafood in a seaside restaurant. With warm weather, safe waters, and plenty of places to stop and swim, Croatia offers the perfect setting for an unforgettable family holiday at sea.
You can pay via IBAN bank account, US (Checking) bank account, credit card, Paypal or Crypto. The deposit 30% – 50% is paid at the reservation, and the rest 30 days before the check-in date.
SECURITY DEPOSIT:
No security deposit if you book with our crew. Deposits apply only to bareboat charters. The refundable deposit is paid at the base (in cash or by card) before departure and returned after the boat is inspected and confirmed undamaged by our base team.
We do not offer anything less than 7 days in the full season. Also, it is impossible to see the best islands, as you need at least 6-7 days, to get the full experience and see the best places. 6-7 days on a boat passes very fast, as you have a new island for every day. All of the charters are operating the same way, especially in the full season.
We always recommend to take a hostess. She will take care of everything, from provisioning, cooking to cleaning. If not, you are always advised to make basic shopping before arriving to the base or after the check-in procedure. Please note that before the check-in procedure is done on boat, you are not allowed to bring your luggage or groceries on boat. While sailing you will probably moor on some of the island, and you must know that most of the villages and cities on the islands have shops and small markets, so we recommend you buy fresh local food.
In Croatia, upon arrival at the marina, proceed to the office to finalize your paperwork. Once your boat is cleaned, prepared technically, and checked, it’s ready for you to embark! You will be accompanied by a technician and a video check-in will take place. After the inspection of the boat, you are ready to sail away.
For all other destinations, check-in is performed by the skipper and one crew member together with someone from our base staff. They inspect the boat from stem to stern, and check that all the equipment is in place and functioning properly.
During check-in, you will also receive instructions on the operation of the specific yacht model you’ll be chartering. You and your crew will be given instructions regarding the use of toilet, septic tank, and propane for cooking. Should you have any questions or concerns, please ask our staff! If you detect any malfunctions, just call our service team! When you sign the takeover, ensure that any existing damage has already been written down. At check-out you will go through the boat again and be given the chance to rate our service.
A sailing license is required to charter and operate a yacht in Croatia, along with a valid VHF radio certificate.
Croatia recognizes many international licenses, so your existing one may already be valid. To be sure, check the official list published by the Croatian Ministry of the Sea.
No license? Book a local skipper at checkout. You stay legal, and you can just enjoy the week.
If you’re unsure which license you need, our charter team will be happy to help and guide you through the process.
