The main reason why the nautical tourism develops rapidly in Croatia lies in the fact that Croatia has many advantages to offer as a sailing destination: beautiful nature, a long chain of islands along the indented coatsline, plenty of hidden anchorages and mild climate are just some of the factors that make Croatia nautical paradise.

To support this large inflow of yacht charter tourists, Croatia has created a prestigious maritime association, the Adriatic Croatia International club which has marinas all over the Croatian coast that ensure some of the highest standard of quality services and also strong ties with the european and worlds sailing associations. Besides the marinas from the ACI Group, we have also several marinas that do not belong to this group and have very high standards of quality (Marina Dalmatia-Zadar, Frapa marina, marina Kastela ...)

Most of the marinas in Croatia are new and official data show they can hold up to 16000 boats on water and 5500 more on land (dry berths). With those kinds of data, you’re sure to find a mooring place for your Croatia sailing trip, even during the high tourist season.
