Primošten

The old town of Primošten is built on a hilly peninsula. We moor our yachts after the sailing day at the little port 50 meters away from the main square. There is a perfect sunset watching spot on the northern side of the town, a juggling ice cream man and a few Konobas. The panoramic view from the top of the hill is also worth a 10 minute hike!

Kaprije

On the island of Kaprije no vehicles are allowed. The local community lives from fishing, tourism and growing olives and capers. It’s a short sail from Primošten, so we have a chilled day with lots of swimming, snorkelling and relaxing time while anchoring for a lunch break. The night stopover location we choose from a selection of buoy fields with restaurants nearby. One of our favorites is the Babalu Grill Bar, where the grilled Seabass knows no equal! Well maybe the mussels do match it! Kaprije Archipelago is also the place where we have the highest chance in Croatia of spotting Dolphins! Keep your eyes wide opened!

Kornati

I always think of Kornats as though they were islands on the moon, combed by a giant. Characteristic layers of stone create regular patterns which make the background for an arid environment with the occasional settlement or a single restaurant. Incredible underwater life can be found at the depth of only a few meters! We anchor at a Modra (Croatian for blue) bay and create a yacht raft once more. A hike to the nearby hill (190m high) pays off with an unforgettable sunset view and a dive in the night reveals a spectacle of nature: glowing plankton (remember the movie The Beach?). As you can imagine there are not many lights on the Kornati islands, so we count on the Milky Way being visible at night!

Vrgada

Vrgada is a beautifully forested island with a large sandy beach (not common in Croatia), a little settlement and a large uninhabited bay in which we anchor and raft our yachts together. This way we create a little village afloat where we get to know each other better by sharing a meal cooked on board, admiring stars, listening to music and enjoying night swims. It’s an evening for unwinding, sinking into the tempo of yacht life and finally detaching from life back in home.

Šibenik

Šibenik is a Venetian stronghold built on the coast of Dalmatia. It stands at the place where the Krka river flows into the Adriatic sea. Today it’s the 3rd largest city in Dalmatia and well worth a visit. There are four fortresses to be seen, each of which provides a spectacular view of the sea, the city and the nearby islands. We walk through a maze of narrow stone-paved streets and visit the best sights: St. James cathedral, St. Lawrance monastery gardens, the town square and we finish at one of the traditional restaurants serving dishes from locally produced ingredients. To finish the evening off we enjoy a drink or two in one of the bars nearby our yachts which are waiting moored at the town pier. The pure joy of life’s essentials!

Regatta

On Friday, the last day of our sailing trip, we have a regatta. Skippers will have taught you enough by now to let you sail the boat yourself. They are there to observe and help in emergencies but it is you and your crew who competes against the other crews.

Once the rush and excitement is over, we call to an island nearby, Trogir, and spend the last night there. We have the captains dinner with all the crews and enjoy recalling stories from the last week, toasting for the regatta winners and savoring the last moments in Croatia.

Keep the connection

Day 8 is the day to say goodbye. All the miles sailed, saunas visited, skills gained and time shared with others will make us bond and build relationships. Cherish these, keep in touch and remember that your sailing tribe is there. See you another time!
