More about this part of the Adriatic Sea

Plenty of superyachts and luxury travellers visit Zadar, especially during the summer months. This makes Zadar the unofficial converging point of yacht charter sailors and holidaymakers. Majority of tourists that come to Zadar are from Germany and the UK, and because of this, German and English are considered as the unofficial languages in Zadar.

The city lies on an important maritime route, making it a favourite jump-off point for tourists who want to spend their Croatian holiday on board a luxury motor yacht or sailing yacht of their choice.

Zadar is the perfect starting point for any yacht charter holiday in Croatia as you can conveniently set sail and reach other important tourist destinations in the region, including the cities of Rijeka and Dubrovnik. On top of this, Zadar is also an ideal jump-off point if you want to access Italy’s Ancona city, which lies on the opposite end of the Adriatic, and Venice to the north is another iconic city that many choose to include in the group's luxury yacht itinerary.

Moreover, with Italy on the western side of the Adriatic Sea, gelaterias, rich chocolates and some of its best and most iconic savoury dishes have integrated into modern Croatian culture, which has long had influences from Rome.

Zadar Yacht Charter Experiences

Zadar and the northern Istria coastal region provides a great sample of everything that is worthwhile and stunning about Croatia. A holiday in this popular yacht charter destination alone will almost be a complete experience of the best of authentic Croatia: A leisurely walk along the narrow Zadar streets is already an experience to remember, as you can already get a clear glimpse at the rich culture and history of Croatia. In Old Zadar there are Roman and Venetian landmarks teeming with opulence and grandiosity.

Notable landmarks and places with historical and cultural importance include the cathedral of St. Anastasia, the Roman Forum, the Archaeological Museum, Riva’s famed Sea Organ where music is made by the sea (be sure to pass by during the day and the evening), and the University.

A stroll through the city waterfront will also reveal numerous boutiques and market stall vendors selling authentic local crafts like woven textiles, handcrafted laces and traditional sleepers made from sheepskin. A more contemporary souvenir can be found in the galleries and jewellers before you head to the nearby islands for peace, quiet and the alluring beaches and coves just a short cruise away from the city. Dugi Otok stands out for its beautiful coastal caves, clear snorkel and Scuba diving sites and picture perfect villages set within a rugged pastoral landscape.

If you choose to venture farther inland, the Nacionalni Park Plitvička Jezera features numerous stunning waterfalls that have UNESCO World Heritage status.

Things to Consider:

Yachting seasons & climate:.

Zadar has hot summer with little to no rain and mild winters that are the most likely time of the year for rainfall, but still have enough dry days and indoor amusements to attract yacht charter groups. The sea temperatures are a warm 25°C/77°F during July and August where there is also the most daylight summer hours.

The shoulder seasons of spring and autumn are also excellent for cruising as well as visiting the local villages and other land-based attractions, and at 17°C/63°F, guests can comfortably relax outdoors in the sunshine on the sundeck.

Clothing to Pack For Your Charter:

Away from the beaches visitors and locals typically opt for smart-casual attire, and visits to religious sites should cover thighs and shoulders - tank tops, short shorts and flip flops are generally not acceptable.

Air conditioned buildings can feel chilly after the hot summer outdoors and visitors might want to carry a long lightweight layer for this purpose, and to keep off the coastal winds after sundown.

Main Ports and Marinas:

Zadar Marina, Borik Marina, Dalmacija Marina, Kornati Marina

Famous Restaurants & Clubs

Kaštel Restaurant, Foša Restaurant

A Must See Attraction:

Museum of Illusions, Church of St. Donatus, Roman Forum, Archaeological Museum Zadar, Dugi Otok, Nacionalni Park Plitvička Jezera

Best beaches to visit in your yacht:

Prasna Beach, Dugi Beach, Brbinjšćica Bay

Local Yacht Events:

Easter Regatta, Kornati Cup, Croatia Coast Cup, Adriatic Regatta

Best time to go:

Summer is the Mediterranean yacht charter season and it peaks around July and August, however as Croatia has warm temperatures from May until October, the shoulder seasons are just as viable for those looking to avoid the crowds.

However, July and August have the most sunshine hours and warm sea temperatures hovering around 24°C/75°F, making it ideal for groups with young children and those who have an aversion to cold. If you ever want a moment to yourself, simply sail off to the islands and relax on a fine sand beach.

Saint Donatus' Church and Roman Forum : Standing proudly as a symbol of Zadar's rich history, Saint Donatus' Church offers a captivating journey back in time. Dating back to the 9th century, this architectural marvel is the largest pre-Romanesque structure in Croatia, a testament to the city's enduring spirit. Many of its intricate ornaments are remnants of the Roman Forum, a sprawling complex commissioned by the legendary Emperor Augustus. As you wander through the forum's ancient ruins, you'll be transported to a distant era, where temples and colonnades once stood tall. 

The Sea Organ : Embrace the symphony of the sea as you visit Zadar's renowned Sea Organ.

Who are we to argue with the master of cinema?

Five Wells Square : This Renaissance Square was built in 1574. during the siege of the Ottoman Empire army when the defensive ditch, previously excavated in the Middle Ages, was covered. In its place, a large cistern for drinking water was created with five decorated wreaths or wells. Parts of the aqueduct that brought water directly from Lake Vrana were also preserved. This square stands as a symbol of the city's resilience and commitment to providing clean water to its inhabitants. Today, it remains a cherished spot where visitors can explore Zadar's rich heritage.

The Cathedral of St. Stošija (St. Anastasia) : This masterpiece of the Romanesque period, stands as the largest church in Dalmatia. Its bell tower, constructed in the 15th and 19th centuries in the neo-Romanesque style, stands as a dominant and unmissable landmark of the city of Zadar. Atop the tower sits a statue of an angel on a rotating platform, serving as a weathervane to indicate wind direction. Visitors can ascend the tower for a breathtaking panoramic view of the city and its surrounding islands.

Zadar's city walls : Once part of the Republic of Venice's extensive defense system, Zadar's city walls are now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Among its notable features are the impressive land gates, serving as the main historical entrance to the city, built in 1543 by the renowned Venetian architect Michele Sanmicheli. They are considered one of the most beautiful Renaissance monuments in all of Dalmatia, notable for their triumphal arch, central passage, and two smaller side arches for pedestrians.

WHEN TO CHARTER IN ZADAR

The charter season in Zadar begins in April and lasts until November. The sailing conditions are exquisite, and the weather is excellent all year round. We recommend booking your yacht charter in Zadar at the end of June and first 2 weeks of July, so you can enjoy ideal weather conditions.

The most popular time for a yacht charter in Zadar region is during the summer months i.e. between June and September. Summer in this region means that you will be blessed with 13 hours of sunshine per day and temperatures between 25 and 30 C ° (77-86 Fahrenheit).

The Mediterranean climate promises a dry and warm summer with winds of no more than 10-20 knots. The peak season for sailors is July and August, with an insanely high number of sunny days and a great number of yachts on the water, while June, September, and October offer equally satisfying sailing conditions but fewer crowds.

For a truly tranquil yacht charter in Zadar, April, May, and November are ideal for exploring the 300+ islands, islets, and reefs. Thanks to the low boat traffic, the underwater world is at its peak during these months. You will have the opportunity to explore the region in all its glory, without the summer crowds. Imagine waking up on your yacht in a peaceful, pristine bay and seeing curious dolphins jumping around your boat.

The winds are particularly reliable during the yachting season when local yacht lovers claim they can set their watch by relying on their frequency. The mistral wind blows during the day, peaking between 9 am and 12 pm, then taking a break for a couple of hours before returning at 3 pm (“after lunch”) for a few more hours until dusk, when the winds die down to a light breeze.

Zadar has mild winters and warm summers, but the temperatures are never too extreme. In the yacht charter season from May to September, conditions are practically perfect – the temperature is somewhere between 20 and 25 C °   (68-77 Fahrenheit) which means swimsuits, light clothes and bare feet are the order of the day.

The Adriatic is very well protected and enclosed, so temperatures never drop below 15 degrees, and the sea is swimmable all year round. By the end of May, swimming in the sea becomes pleasant and refreshing at around 20 degrees, and by the end of August, at 25 degrees, it feels like you are swimming in a pool.

HOW TO GET TO ZADAR

Zadar is a picturesque historical town in southwestern Croatia, considered to be located in the “Heart of Dalmatia”, with its roots dating back to the time of ancient Roman emperors. The city is separated from the islands of Ugljan and Pašman by the Zadar  Sea Channel, meaning that this town is the ideal base for your yacht charter holiday, because it has a natural deep-sea harbor protected from harsh weather by the dotted islands and the Velebit mountain range. You can reach Zadar very easily, by air, sea, and land.

Zadar airport is located in Zemunik Donji, 9 km southeast of the city. The airport is well connected with the whole of Europe and other international destinations. You can easily find a direct flight to Zadar from any major European city, especially during the summer months. Once you land, the SuperYachts Croatia team can arrange a VIP transfer for you and your charter guests.

Zadar is also excellently connected via highway to all major cities in Croatia. You can reach Zadar by driving on the A1 or enjoy the scenic route along with the Velebit Mountain range by way of the famous Jadranska Magistrala (D8).

If you are arriving by sea, your yacht charter in Zadar will be awaiting your transfer! Yachts can moor on the peninsula next to Old Town, giving guests the possibility to enjoy all the amenities of the attractive Old Town, as well as transfer quickly between vessles.

PERFECT ACTIVITIES FOR YOUR YACHT CHARTER IN ZADAR

Island hopping around nearby islands.

Enjoy island-hopping adventures by sailing between nearby islands in the greater Zadar region. Discover unspoiled nature, crystal clear sea, and secluded bays, only 2.5 km from the city centre! Along the way, stop at the smallest inhabited island in the country – Galevac. On your next stop, take a moment to soak in the view of the lush scenery on the “Island of Olives” – Ugljan. Visit the ancient island of Pašman and discover the heart-shaped island of Galešnjak. Also, do not miss “The Island of Diversity” – Dugi Otok.

Visit the “Island of Olives” – Ugljan

On Ugljan island, you will discover rich vegetation and more than 200,000 olive trees. While cruising along the coastline, explore the 7 “Island jewels” of Ugljan; seven authentic and traditional villages surrounded by lush Mediterranean vegetation. On Ugljan, you can also escape from the crowds and enjoy complete solitude in charming fishing villages.

This majestic island is also perfect for nature lovers, as well as various outdoor activities. You will enjoy peaceful walks in unspoiled nature, hikes under the shade of pine trees and relaxing bike rides along its 24km long coastline.

Moor in one of the countless natural lagoons around Ugljan island and immerse yourself in various water sports around pristine bays. If you are looking for wonderful coves with a hint of privacy and excitement around Ugljan – try Mulina bay, which offers suitable moorings for yachts and a secluded corner for naturists.

Cruising around a nautical paradise – Kornati Islands

Escape to Kornati Islands and explore countless private islands, with an interesting history.

Above its rich history, the Zadar region has so much natural beauty including national parks and lovely beaches. With a sailing holiday, you can explore the entire Adriatic coast, leaving you with unforgettable memories.

How much does it cost to charter a private yacht in Zadar?

As you search through yachts on Scansail, you will find a range of prices.

Should I charter a private yacht with or without a skipper?

It is possible to book a private yacht without a skipper, however, having one on board can provide many benefits to your overall experience. For example, a skipper will take care of the sailing, docking and anchoring of your vessel. This will leave you with more time to relax and enjoy the sights of the Zadar archipelago. Moreover, a skipper will be familiar with the region, so they will ensure that you see the very best beaches and attractions. Ultimately, a skipper will help you have a more luxurious experience.

What to do in Zadar?

Centre of zadar.

Zadar is a city with a 3,000-year-long history. In Roman antiquity, it became an urban centre and remained so for two millennia. Its alleys, squares, seawall, churches and monumental heritage reveal the city's antiquity and continuity at every turn, while its modern facilities show the vision of modernity and inspire new travellers. You can take a journey through time by visiting the Roman Forum and diving deep into the history of Croatia. You can also visit the Church of St Donatus from the 9th century. The church is the largest pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

Veli Rat lighthouse

Want to reach high and enjoy unforgettable views? Then you must marvel at the tallest lighthouse on the Adriatic locally. The 42-metre-high structure is located just 35 kilometres west of the city of Zadar on the north west cape of the island of Dugi Otok. Fun fact: The lighthouse's specific bright yellow colour is because 100,000 eggs were mixed into it during construction.

Are you a fan of art? Then we recommend visiting this architectural object that is simultaneously an experimental musical instrument. Located in the western part of the Zadar peninsula in Croatia, the Sea Organ consists of a group of pipes running under a large marble staircase. The sea waves create air pressure that produces random but quite harmonically arranged sounds in the pipes.

Kornati Islands

Are you attracted to pristine islands with a dreamy character? Sail to the Kornati Islands, where you will find 140 uninhabited islands. You can begin your journey from Marina Borik or Zadar Marina and then navigate with your boat rental to the islands. Circling around these islands with your private yacht charter is a great opportunity to see all the fantastic bays and rocky cliffs of the landscape. Make sure to take your snorkelling goggles! The crystal clear waters offer a great chance to admire the unique marine life of the area that hides within the caves and grottoes.

Explore nearby destinations on your private yacht charter

One of the many advantages of chartering a yacht in Zadar is that there are so many beautiful destinations nearby. This way, if you have the time, we highly recommend island hopping or taking several days to explore more of the Mediterranean! For example, you can of course travel west until you reach the eastern coast of Italy. Alternatively, if you have more time, you can head south to the Ionian Sea and visit southern Italy or Greece. No matter where you decide to go, you are sure to have an unforgettable boating holiday!

Even if you have a valid sailing licence, we always recommend opting for a skippered vessel to enhance your experience on the water. Skippers are nautical professionals that will dock, anchor and sail the vessel for you so that you don’t have to worry about anything but enjoying your holiday to the fullest extent. If you have a sailing licence and want to take on the challenge of navigating the boat, do not worry!

A skipper can simply serve as an extra set of hands in an emergency. But perhaps the best part about having a skipper present is that they are locals of the area and can take you to see everything on your sailing itinerary and more. They will show you all the most sought-after sights and some hidden gems you might not have known about otherwise. For an all-inclusive and personalised yacht charter, rent a boat in Zadar with a skipper!

If you have sailing experience and prefer a bareboat charter for your sailing adventure, you can rent a boat without a skipper in Zadar . However, you must provide the necessary certifications  demonstrate proficiency in handling the chosen vessel. Keep in mind that sailing in unfamiliar waters can be challenging, so thorough preparation and navigational skills are a must.

What season is the best to charter a boat in Zadar?

The best time for a yacht charter in Zadar is between June and September because of the low rainfall and hot summer sun. The average sea temperature is at its highest for those wanting to dive off their yacht charter into the beautiful Croatian waters. Zadar hosts various cultural events and festivals throughout the year. The summer months are particularly vibrant with music festivals and cultural celebrations.

During the shoulder season in May and October, you will find cooler weather but much quieter streets as there are fewer tourists. Boat renters can also benefit from lower prices during the mid-season compared to the high season. Therefore, the best time to charter a boat in Zadar largely depends on your preferences and interests.

What type of boat is best for Zadar?

The type of boat you should for your Zadar boat rental will depend on the sort of holiday you want. If you only plan to sail for a few days, we’d recommend a daily rental, such as a motorboat or a RIB.

However, if you’re after a longer holiday of a week or more, we’d recommend a more spacious and comfortable vessel such as a catamaran. This boat is ideal for family holidays or a trip with a group of friends, and it comes fully equipped with all the necessary accommodations onboard, such as a kitchen, bathroom and cabins.

For a more traditional sailing experience, we’d recommend a sailboat rental however, you should always choose one with a skipper since these boats can be tricky to navigate. The best boat type depends on your group size and preferences.
