Discover Croatia by sea

Croatia has captured the imagination of Australians with its blend of natural beauty, friendly people and culture steeped in history.



And now holidaymakers looking for the ultimate Croatia experience can sail the entire Adriatic shoreline with Sunsail Yacht Charters.



The world's leading sailing holiday company has just opened a fourth base, in Pula, meaning guests can now sail all the way from Pula in the north, down the coast to the Kornati archipelago, on to Kremik with its breathtaking forests and waterfalls and from there to the famous Medieval walled city of Dubrovnik.



With its gentle 5 to 20 knot winds, calm, clear waters, secluded beaches, quiet anchorages and 1,100 islands and islets to explore, Croatia offers idyllic sailing conditions.



"Croatia has become more and more popular with Australian holidaymakers," said Sunsail's marketing manager Kim Lehmann.



"We have gone from two bases - in Kremik and Dubrovnik - to four bases in the past few years with the opening of our flotilla base Sibenik and now Pula.



"Guests can choose to explore the waters surrounding just one or two bases, or they can take advantage of the fact Sunsail now has four bases and sail the entire length of the Adriatic shoreline.



"In fact, there is so much to see in these waters that some guests return again and again to explore somewhere new each time."



Sunsail's fleet of high-specification luxury yachts and catamarans cater for every kind of sailing experience and holiday.



Guests' comfort is as important as the safety and performance of the yachts, which can be hired with or without a skipper.



The best time to sail in Croatia is during the northern hemisphere summer, between April and October. For more information call 1800 803 988 or visit www.sunsail.com.au
