The Charter Experience
Charter Patriot on your own terms across the Adriatic. The Croatian coastline offers sheltered sailing between the Dalmatian islands, with frequent anchorages, small harbours, and established provisioning stops. Bareboat sailing here suits confident sailors seeking independence without the constraints of a crewed itinerary. Summer conditions favour steady breezes and visibility; spring and autumn bring lighter winds ideal for leisurely coastal passages.
Suggested Itinerary
Sail from Dalmatia south towards Kolocep, Lopud, and Sipan in the Elaphiti Islands, where shallow anchorages reward careful piloting. Continue to Dubrovnik's protected waters, then explore the Peljesac Peninsula and the dramatic limestone cliffs around Bol and Brač. Return northbound via Hvar's sheltered harbour or push west to the quieter Vis archipelago if conditions and experience permit.
