The Charter Experience
Charter this Bavaria from Sukosan and explore the Adriatic's most compelling waters. The Dalmatian coast rewards careful seamanship with anchorages ranging from the limestone cliffs near Dubrovnik to the island-studded channels north of Split. The bareboat model demands confidence at the helm and rewards it with complete autonomy. Sail to Hvar's protected bays, navigate the narrow passages between Korcula and Lombarda, or establish a homebase among the Elaphiti Islands and explore at leisure. Summer thermals and consistent northwesterlies make July and August peak conditions, though shoulder months offer fewer boats and equally memorable sailing.
Suggested Itinerary
A week from Sukosan typically unfolds as a progressive traverse southward. Days one and two establish rhythm among the Sibenik archipelago's protected channels. Mid-week sailing reaches Hvar or Korcula, positioning you for the Adriatic's most photographed sunsets. The return journey northbound allows flexibility for unexpected discoveries, whether that's a particular island's restaurant or an unscheduled overnight anchorage in crystalline water.
