Overview of yachts available for charter in Istria

You must remember that Croatia is a typical sailing country, so when organizing a yacht charter in Istria, it is worth considering what type of boat will be best for you: a monohull yacht or a catamaran.

Theoretically, it is also possible to charter a motor boat, but most people choose sailing. A sailing yacht is an ecological choice and at the same time provides wonderful sailing experiences, the opportunity to be in close contact with nature and a pinch of romance. The situation is similar with a catamaran, which, however, is more troublesome when mooring and slightly more expensive, but offers much more space. Therefore, it can be a great choice for larger crews or families with children.

Sailing season in Croatia: When to plan a yacht charter in Istria?

One of the reasons why many sailors choose yacht charters in Istria is probably the long sailing season. It lasts from the beginning of May until October - when planning a cruise in local waters, you have several months to choose from.

Of course, the peak season (and therefore the highest prices and the greatest crowds in ports) falls on holidays. However, if you decide to charter a yacht in Istria in May or September, you can count on attractive discounts and much lower tourist traffic.
