Yachts were new and clean, staff was helpful and always one call away, provided weather forecasts. Fast and easy check-in and check-out, yachts were available even upon our late-night arrival. Property left onboard was shipped to us for free. We highly recommend the collaboration with Bruneko Charter. Sailing Club of University of Warsaw, Poland

We had a very pleasant trip with an Elan E4. The boat was very well maintained and in very good condition, the welcome and service by Bruneko was perfect. They are clearly customer oriented and are wonderful hosts. To me one of the top charter agencies in Croatia.

This was my 5th charter with Bruneko over many years and if starting from Zadar again I will surely do the 6th one :) Well maintained boats, moderate prices and a very friendly staff is a visit card of Bruneko. They are focused on customers, and you may be sure to be treated well and fair. The base is perfectly located in Tankenkomerc marina, just 10 minutes’ walk from Zadar old town. See you again Vedran and Bruneko team!

Grzegorz B.

Thank you Bruneko! It was perfect week on your Elan 45 Princess Tena. The boat was clean, equipment was working. During the check-in I got all necessary instruction and answers on my questions. All was ready on time (SUP, baby net). The check-in and check-out process was quick and in friendly atmosphere. During the trip I got support in every question. Bruneko, you are the best! Best Regards from Poland!

Check-in was done quickly and efficiently. We had no problems with the boat, Antares 9, which we rented for a week. The boat was clean, tidy and everything was as stated when booking. Edi and Marijana helped us with every question during and before the rental. Also, we didn't have any problems when checking out. Congratulations to the charter and the team!

I chartered yacht Bavaria 34 NEO from Bruneko Company during my summer vacation. I am absolutely impressed and satisfied with literally everything. Contact with company before arrival was perfect, staff and positive attitude was more than I accepted. Boat Bavaria 34 NEO was new and astonishing. It wasn’t just regular charter boat, but it had really everything, including AC, lightening under the boat. All instruments on boat were new and in perfect shape. I am demanding customer but at that case I cannot say anything more except: THANK YOU BRUNEKO!!! And definitely see you next time.

Despite the very mixed weather, we had a lovely week on the Elan E4 Stella Mare. A beautiful, handy ship for a small crew like us. Check-in and check-out were problem-free, and when the bow thruster fuse blew in Biograd, a technician was at the boat the next morning with a replacement. Great service, very nice staff, I can only recommend Bruneko!

This Charter is way beyond Croatia Charters standards. Very pro-client attitude in communication same as services. Modern equipment of boats same as overall technical condition. We had Elan E4 which I can absolutely recommend.

Here, the sea is not merely a body of water, but a living entity that sings the songs of ancient mariners and dances to the rhythm of the wind. To rent a yacht in Zadar is to embark on a journey into the heart of the Adriatic, to explore a world where the boundaries between man and nature blur into a harmonious dance. In this exploration, we shall delve into the reasons why one might choose Zadar as a sailing destination, the considerations that must be borne in mind, and the vessels that might become trusted companions on this unforgettable voyage.

Why Rent a Yacht in Zadar

In the heart of the Adriatic Sea lies an ancient coastal city that whispers the tales of its rich history. An embrace of serenity, Zadar, Croatia, offers a mesmerizing canvas of crystalline waters that yearn to be explored. It is here that one may delve into a nautical journey, punctuated by islands and inlets that seem to have been painted by Nature's gentle brush.

❑ A Landscape of Unparalleled Beauty

Beneath the warmth of the Croatian sun, the waters around Zadar are filled with a life of their own. The turquoise sea dances with the wind, reflecting the sky in a play of shadows and light. To set sail on these waters is to become a part of an ever-evolving painting, a dance of elements that is everchanging, yet eternal.

Each island possesses a unique charm, a secret history etched in rocky shores and hidden coves. The echoes of the past still linger in the olive groves and ancient ruins, while the fresh breeze carries the scent of Adriatic flora, teeming with endemic species.

❑ A Symphony of Culture and Tradition

To rent a yacht in Zadar is to immerse oneself in a world where the ocean meets human innovation, where old-world charm mingles with modern luxury.

Exploring Zadar's Nautical Treasures: Specific Places to Visit with a Yacht

The allure of Zadar's coastline is not confined to the city's ancient walls or its sun-kissed shores. Beyond the horizon lies a world of islands, bays, and hidden coves, each a unique jewel waiting to be discovered. Renting a yacht in Zadar is akin to unlocking a treasure chest, offering access to some of the most breathtaking destinations in the Adriatic. Here are specific places that call out to the sailor's heart, promising enchantment, adventure, and a glimpse into the timeless beauty of the Croatian seascape.

🚢 Kornati National Park

An archipelago of over 140 islands, Kornati National Park is a paradise for sailors and nature enthusiasts alike. The stark contrast of rocky cliffs and crystal-clear waters offers a landscape that is both rugged and ethereal. Exploring the Kornati islands by yacht allows one to find secluded beaches, dive into underwater caves, and witness the vibrant marine life that thrives in these protected waters.

🚢 Dugi Otok

Dugi Otok, or "Long Island," is a destination that captures the essence of the Adriatic's tranquil beauty. The island is home to the stunning Telascica Nature Park, where pristine bays meet dense pine forests. Sailing to Dugi Otok's Sakarun Beach, one can indulge in the soft, white sands and turquoise waters, often compared to those of the Caribbean.

🚢 Ugljan Island

Known as the "green island," Ugljan is covered in olive groves, fig trees, and Mediterranean vegetation. A yacht excursion to Ugljan offers opportunities to explore charming villages, hike along scenic trails, and enjoy local gastronomy infused with the flavors of the sea.

🚢 Pag Island

The island of Pag is a world of contrasts, where barren landscapes meet rich cultural traditions. Famous for its lace-making, cheese, and unique moon-like terrain, Pag invites exploration both on land and sea. With a yacht, one can discover hidden coves and private beaches, each a silent witness to the island's centuries-old history.

🚢 Sestrunj Island

For those seeking solitude and a deep connection with nature, Sestrunj Island offers an escape from the modern world. With only a handful of inhabitants, the island retains an untouched beauty. Sailing to Sestrunj allows one to immerse in the tranquil waters, hike through wild landscapes, and gaze at the stars, unspoiled by artificial light.

🚢 Pasman Island

Located near Ugljan Island, Pasman is known for its dynamic currents and ever-changing sea colors. Its numerous pebble beaches and charming fishing villages create an ideal destination for a relaxed yachting adventure. A must-visit is the Franciscan monastery on Ćokovac hill, a historical site offering panoramic views of the surrounding archipelago.

🚢 Molat Island

Molat, with its serene bays and lush landscapes, offers an escape into tranquility. It is a place where time seems to slow down, where the melodies of nature take precedence over the noise of civilization. Exploring Molat by yacht provides a peaceful respite, an opportunity to connect with the elemental beauty of the Adriatic.

🚢 Silba Island

Known as the "pedestrian island," Silba is a car-free oasis that invites exploration on foot. Yachting to Silba provides access to untouched beaches and crystal-clear waters, ideal for swimming and snorkeling. The island's relaxed pace and artistic atmosphere make it a perfect destination for those seeking inspiration and renewal.

🚢 Vrgada Island

Vrgada is a small island characterized by sandy beaches and dense pine forests. It is a secluded paradise, ideal for those seeking privacy and communion with nature. Anchoring a yacht in one of Vrgada's sheltered coves allows one to enjoy sunsets and sunrises in perfect solitude, a romantic escape in the heart of the Adriatic.

🚢 Olib Island

A sparsely populated island, Olib is rich in history and natural beauty. The island is home to ancient olive groves, historic churches, and sandy beaches like Slatinica. Yachting to Olib offers a glimpse into a world untouched by mass tourism, a place where the echoes of the past still resonate in the wind and waves.

Though not an island, the town of Skradin is a unique destination accessible by yacht. It serves as the gateway to Krka National Park, home to stunning waterfalls and diverse wildlife. A journey to Skradin reveals the richness of Croatia's inland wonders, a blend of natural and cultural heritage.

The shores of Zadar are like the pages of an unending book, each destination a story waiting to be explored, each island a world unto itself. To rent a yacht in Zadar is to embark on an odyssey that transcends the ordinary, a voyage that delves into the heart of a landscape that has captivated sailors, poets, and dreamers for generations. In this dance of sea and land, one finds not just beauty, but a profound understanding of what it means to be a part of this extraordinary world.

What Should I Consider Before Renting a Yacht in Zadar

Renting a yacht is no small undertaking, especially in a place where the sea is a complex tapestry of currents, tides, and weather patterns.

⛵ Knowledge of the Waters

The waters of Zadar are both gentle and wild, calm and tempestuous. It is a landscape that demands respect and understanding. A potential mariner must be aware of the local maritime regulations, as well as the unique challenges posed by the Adriatic's tides and currents.

⛵ Type and Size of the Vessel

The decision to embark on this journey is not one to be taken lightly. The vessel chosen must be a harmonious match with the sailor's skills, the nature of the voyage, and the capricious personality of the sea itself. One must consider the size, the amenities, the strength, and the very soul of the yacht.

⛵ Environmental Responsibility

Zadar's sea is a living entity, filled with creatures that call it home. Renting a yacht in Zadar is a privilege that comes with responsibilities. Care must be taken to preserve the pristine beauty of the environment, to tread lightly, and leave no trace behind.

Which is the Best Yacht for Zadar Waters

There is no simple answer to this query, for the best yacht is a reflection of the sailor's own desires, needs, and understanding of the sea.

⛵ For the Adventurous Spirit

For those seeking the thrill of the open sea, a vessel that is both robust and agile is the key. Perhaps a sporty sailing yacht that can dance with the wind and weather the storm, offering an intimate connection with the ocean's many moods.

⛵ For the Seekers of Luxury and Comfort

Should one desire a voyage of leisure and indulgence, a motor yacht equipped with the finest amenities and luxuries might be the vessel of choice. The gentle hum of the engine, the spacious decks, the gourmet cuisine—all of these create a symphony of pleasure on the serene Adriatic waves.

⛵ For the Environmental Steward

In an age where the preservation of Nature's treasures is of paramount importance, an eco-friendly yacht might be the vessel for the conscious traveler. Advanced technologies that minimize pollution and promote sustainable navigation practices allow one to explore Zadar's waters with a clear conscience.

In the end, the best yacht for Zadar waters is the one that resonates with the sailor's heart, the one that becomes a faithful companion in an extraordinary voyage across time, culture, and the ever-mesmerizing dance of the sea. Whether for adventure, luxury, or conscious travel, Zadar's shores await, promising a journey that is as profound and enriching as the ancient city itself.

Renting a boat with or without a skipper?

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?

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.

Zadar yacht charter

Sailing holidays in Zadar …with catamaran, sailboat, motorboat, luxury yacht or gulet Abundance of national parks!!!

As part of the Adriatic culture, Zadar is no exception to the specific local lifestyle in which the love for good food plays an important role in everyday life. The local people are passionate about everything in their lives, but especially about gastronomy. They will gladly inform you their cuisine is among the best you will ever try. It is therefore inevitable to dive into the inviting mixture of enchanting aromas, waken your senses and enjoy some truly amazing dishes.

Zadar is proud of its Dalmatian heritage, visible in every aspect of their culture, including the local cuisine. Based on simple principles of food preparation, Dalmatian cuisine is considered to be among the healthiest in the world. The locals can thank than their vitality to light, predominantly cooked or grilled fish meals accompanied by the fresh seasonal vegetables with small amounts of spices and with a touch of inevitable olive oil. Every such meal is concluded by the glass of quality wine from the rich local vineyards.

As a modern tourist destination, Zadar has an immensely rich gastronomic offer, managing to satisfy even the most demanding of guests. From fast food objects, patisseries and trattorias over to praised local taverns and exclusive fine dining venues; you can find them all in Zadar. The majority of restaurants are conveniently incorporated into the romantic city architecture and situated in the immediate city center.

If you prefer to try something different and exotic, there are two restaurants serving dishes of the Far East; Pearl of Siam is a Thai restaurant and in the newly opened Shanghai House you can try some of the most recognizable Chinese specialties. One of the best fish restaurants are Niko and Fosa; if you’re into fine dining be sure not to miss Gourmet Kalelarga, Pet Bunara and Lungo Mare; and if you prefer to enjoy the true Dalmatian atmosphere while tasting the local specialties, visit one of the city taverns (e.g. Konoba Trata).

But, the majority of Zadar visitors are interested to try the local cuisine. We warmly recommend you explore the endless choices of fish specialties ranging from grilled fish, seafood risottos, fish stews, various delicious shrimps and clamshells. And if you are more of a “meat person”, don’t miss to taste pasticada, the traditional Dalmatian beef stew marinated in lemony vinaigrette, slowly cooked in wine and served with the homemade gnocchi.

There are several gastronomic delicacies typical for Zadar, designed through the centuries of foreign influences and local specificities of climate and available groceries. Be sure to try the cheese from the Island of Pag, one of the best cheeses in Croatia and winner of many international awards and acknowledgements. This cheese is best if accompanied by the aromatic prosciutto dried in the streams of bura, the strong local wind blowing from the mountain ridges. Encircle the exquisite tastes of the local delicacies with a glass of quality wine from the fertile vineyards of Zadar. And as a desert, try Maraschino, original sweet liqueur of Zadar made from the indigenous variety of cherry.

Zadar is a town that has antique origins with the most researched Roman forum on the eastern side of the Adriatic and late Roman church – the cathedral of St. Stošija [St. Anastasia], Sv. Krševan [St. Krsevan] and the famous Sv. Donat [St. Donatus]. With its valuable collections, libraries and archives, Zadar is proud of the fact that the foundations of the oldest Croatian university were laid here in 1396.

Recently made even more famous for its Sea Organ, an architectural miracle on the Zadar riva (sea front). Alfred Hitchcock was so impressed with Zadar and its sunset that he said that from the Zadar riva ‘one can enjoy the most beautiful sunset in the world. If you go to the nearby old town of Nin, you will find the smallest cathedral in the world – Crkva svetog Kriza (Church of the Holly Cross), that is only 36 paces long.

Attractive sailing destinations:

Dugi Otok is an island located close to Zadar on the mainland, and is the largest among the islands located in this part of Dalmatia. Its name literally means ‘long island’ – for it is indeed of this description (it is 45km long) – and is known for its vineyards and orchards, Saharun beach in the north, and Telascica Nature Park that covers the south part of the island. With a population of just 1,500 people on Dugi Otok, the main villages are Bozava and Sali.

Dugi Otok is a wonderful place to stay if you’re looking to get ‘off the beaten track’! Despite Croatia’s obviously popularity, even in the summer months this island well and truly provides travellers with some peace and quiet, although there are still some wonderful things to see and do here.

It is very easy to take a swim on Dugi otok as wherever you turn you’ll have fascinating clear, blue sea attracting you with its beauty. The hidden coves where you can find charming, untouched beaches, represent a challenge for researchers, but also to all those who want privacy and peace.

The beauty of Dugi otok, the beach Sakarun, will fascinate many with its beauty and satisfy those who want crystal-clear waters and white sand at their fingertips.

Sakarun, like many other coves on Dugi otok is a safe harbour for sailors, and thus makes Dugi otok an ideal place to find shelter from the powerful forces of sea and wind. Beaches on Sali are, for the most part, pleasantly calm, lacking the crowds of Croatia’s top beaches. You’ll find several pristine, quiet spots, like Lojisce Beach, in Telascica Nature Park.

At the other end of the island, a small beach on Veli Rat offers great views of Dugi Otok’s lighthouse. Standing 42 meters high, the lighthouse at Veli Rat is the tallest in the Adriatic. It was built in 1849, when, according to legend, 100,000 egg yolks were used to give the facade its unique yellow color. Today, the lighthouse provides accommodation for visitors seeking a romantic getaway.

Sakarun is the island’s most well known – and most crowded – beach. A sandy bottom and shallow waters make this calm cove popular among families, while a couple of beach bars cater to the younger crowd.

Ist Island is a small island whose shape resembles a butterfly. It is ideal for holidays in unspoiled nature away from the stress and bustle of cities. Car traffic is not allowed on the island so you can freely enjoy the peace of the island and fresh air.

Explore the island and take a walk through the vineyards and olive groves to the highest point of the island where you will find a small the church, a gazebo and enjoy in the panoramic view of the islands in the area. Discover sandy beaches and clear waters in quiet coves and relax in the shade of pine trees. It is interesting that during the day you can move from one side of the island to another and experience a different, perhaps more peaceful wind. Ist is a favorite destination for navigators, divers and fishermen. In addition to its beauty, its kitchen also attracts tourists. There are restaurants that serve dishes of freshly caught fish, crabs, mussels, wine and cheese.

The Island of Ist, with a town bearing the same name, is a true destination for a peaceful and quiet vacation. The waters around the island abound in fish; this being the reason it attracts many recreational fishermen, though the underwater world is no less interesting for divers. The peaceful island of Ist and its main settlement of the same name placed in a bay with a small marina are ideal for those who prefer quiet, somewhat secluded outdoor holidays. The island has barely 250 inhabitants.

There are hills, olive groves and vineyeards in its interior. Ist and the neighboring islands of Molat and Skarada, with their sandy beaches, bays and sandbanks are ideal for sports fishing, diving and nautical tourism. Anchorage is available in the Mljaka bay where guests are offered accommodation in private holiday houses.

Pasman is an island located in the Zadar archipelago, separated from the mainland by the beautiful Pasman canal which contains ten smaller islands. Pasman covers the surface of 60 km2 and has a 70km long, indented shore which is why it is considered one of the largest Croatian islands. There are eleven settlements on the island, the population of which is engaged in fishing and tourism. The sea current in this area changes every six hours, which makes the sea the cleanest in the entire Adriatic.

Pasman is famous for its beautiful beaches and pine tree forests. The north side of the island is the only one populated, while the settlements are small and typically Mediterranean, ideal for a quiet and relaxing vacation. The south side of the island abounds in beautiful intact nature, beautiful coves and old fishermen houses overlooking one of the most beautiful group of islands in the Adriatic – Kornati.

The population of the island of Pasman is traditionally engaged in agriculture, fishing and, more recently, tourism. Recreation enthusiasts can enjoy on the footpaths and biking trails; we also recommend the hiking-biking tour to the hill of Veli Bokolj which offers the view of neighboring islands, the Pasman canal and the Kornati.

The most important island center is Tkon, which is developing faster than any other settlement on the island because of its large harbor and quality connection to the mainland. The population calls this place “Kun”, but is also known as the “Door to Kornati”. Kraj is a beautiful place surrounded by vineyards and olive groves which stretches along two beautiful sandy beaches. It holds the gothic Franciscan monastery of St. Dujam from the 14th century with the image of the Madonna with baby Jesus from the 15th century, as well as the exponents’ museum which reveals the history of the island of Pasman.

Vrgada is a small Adriatic island, surrounded by much larger isles such as Pasman, Kornati and Murter. Being less than 2.5 km² in size, and having a scarce population of 250 inhabitants, it’s a great spot for visitors seeking peace and an easy-going vacation.

Vrgada is full of wild plantlife, which can be used for stews, spices or even medical treatments. The local beach of Janica is known for huge blocks of stone, found on the bottom of its sea, which are actually the remains of Dijana, an archaic harbor of the classical period.

Other points of interest include pusevbrus, a stone attached to one’s house which was used for sharpening the agricultural tools of villagers. The local church is a home to statue of St. Andrew, patron saint of fisherman. Interestingly, the statue was brought to Vrgada’s shores by sea waves, and nobody really knows who made it and how it ended up in Adriatic.

Another small place for an interesting holiday, Vrgada might be just the kind of island you seek to rest your nerves and experience true tranquility.

The island of Vir is located 26 km from Zadar and it is connected to mainland by a bridge which makes it easy accessible because it is not tied with ferry lines. The largest settlement on the island of Vir is located in the bay Sapavac. It was first mentioned in 1069 in the document of King Petar Kresimir called Ueru i.e. Vera, meaning pasture. Along the coast, in the bay Sapavac, you can see the remains of the fortress Kaštelina from 17th century which was built by the Venetians in order to protect themselves from Turkish attacks. Only one wall and two towers are preserved from the entire fort. The arms of the Venetian family and a winged lion that was the symbol of Venice are visible on the tower.

The island is ideal for families because it is surrounded by coves with sandy and pebble beaches and clear sea. Along the beaches you can see pine trees so you can relax in the shade. Besides swimming and diving, you can try water sports and sail, surf, ride a jet ski or simply explore the island on foot. The area is ideal for mountain biking. In summer the wind is blowing, which relieves summer heat and creates perfect conditions for surfing and windsurfing. On some beaches on Vir, especially in the bay n Sapavac ear the fort Kaštelina, you can find medicinal mud (peloid mud) which is good for the treatment of rheumatic diseases.

On the island you can taste the local cuisine in the restaurants and taverns, and nightlife can be found in bars, some of which are open until late at night. Every year Vir traditionally organizes ‘’Vir summer’’, cultural and musical event, which lasts from June to September. Among the other events Dalmatian ‘’klapa’’ singing and Days of the island of Vir are organized.

The island has great location because you can go on a trip to the countryside and visit the National Park Plitvice lakes, Krka waterfalls, or Kornati.

Murter is a small place situated on the north-western part of the eponymous island which is connected to the mainland by a mobile bridge. The town was formerly known as Veliko Selo and Srimac. It received its current name in 1715. History lovers can visit the remains of the roman buildings (remains of an ancient settlement Colentum) located at the foot of the Gradina hill, as well as the church of Our Lady in Gradina and the parish church of St. Mihovil.

This town is surrounded by numerous islands and part of them create the beautiful National park – Kornati. Be sure to visit this breathtaking national park. You can cruise around the Kornati labyrinth, dive or snorkle, observe the flora and fauna, explore the amazing islands or try to live among Kornat families. Murter is rich with sandy beaches, such as Slanica, Cigrada, Podvrske and many others. During the summer, you can attend classical and fun music concerts and enjoy local church singing. This is a place which has a rich tourist offer, in which everyone can find something to their liking. Gastronomy enthusiasts can savor the delicacies of the island in the restaurants “Skalinda” and “Runje”, as well as in the tavern “Balarina”.

Although relatively small, Island Murter boasts a rich variety of picturesque coves and beaches dotted along its coast. Island Murter may actually be considered as one long beach, which transforms as you circumnavigate the island from the peaceful, isolated, private, nudist beaches to the more lively, fun-filled beaches resonating to the frantic red-hot pace of summer. Whether you choose to unwind in the peaceful isolated bays or search for a party, one thing is for sure – you have chosen your place in the sun.

Client testimonials, katrin hofmeister, anders nissen.

Our family had a fantastic day with Karlo as skipper on the great boat from Alpha Boats. Communication - pre rental - went smooth and with quick response from Karlo. Karlo send suggested tours with full flexibility to adjust on the day.

A special thanks to Karlo for jumping into the water to assist our 12-year old who is not a great swimmer - she ended up standing on the shipwreck and swimming into the cave. Something she never had experienced without Karlo. We got a very happy, proud (and tired) girl with us from this great day.

Biggest recommendation to Alpha Boats and Karlo - this company is bookmarked for our next trip to Zadar.

Renting a Boat in Zadar

Zadar is a less popular holiday destination than some other Croatian cities such as Split, but definitely a must-see destination. If you prefer to explore a calmer and less crowded city with unmatched architecture and long history, plan your next trip to Zadar. In the city, there are multitudes of churches and historic cathedrals, one of them being the St. Chrysogonus, a medieval basilica of the 12th century. 

Moreover, Zadar provides an excellent starting point for an amazing sailing holiday as there are many beautiful natural spots to visit. Rent a boat in Zadar to discover the wonderful Croatian coast and get to explore the region. To get to Zadar you can charter a yacht in Sukosan and sail to this great city. There is no better way to discover Croatia than to charter a yacht in Dalmatia and explore its coastline. You can also rent a catamaran in Hvar and discover its beaches.

How much does it cost to hire a boat in Zadar?

The cost of the boat hire in Zadar can fluctuate according to the season, like most boat rentals in Croatia . When the demand is higher during the summer, expect to find the highest prices in July and August. However, the excellent Mediterranean climate makes it possible to sail from May to October when there are less tourists and the prices are slightly lower. If you plan to charter a yacht in Zadar, expect to pay around 100€/day for a sailboat and around 250€/day for a catamaran.

There is a much wider price range for motor boats, that will depend on the size and type of boat you rent. If you prefer to rent a motor boat for a day, define your project and the activities you would like to do during your trip and choose accordingly.

The sailing season in Zadar runs from May to October, which is the same anywhere else in Croatia. Due to that, there is a wide range of boats available for hire. We highly recommend booking a few months in advance if you plan to charter in Zadar. If you rather wish to rent a motor boat for a day, it is enough to book a few weeks before your departure. 

Do I need a licence to charter a yacht in Zadar?

If you rent a boat in Zadar, you must follow the Croatian national regulations. In Croatia there is a strict regulation about the need for a license. You must have a valid boating license and also a VHF radio license regardless of the type of boat you rent in Zadar. 

However, don’t worry about the documents and having previous experience in sailing as there is an opportunity of renting with a skipper. If you want a stress-free holiday and to let an expert drive a boat, having a skipper is the best option. Additionally, a local skipper will have knowledge about the area and will navigate you to explore the beautiful hidden spots and stunning bays around Zadar. This will definitely make your whole experience unforgettable! 

Overview of Zadar

Zadar is a seaside Croatian city located on the Dalmatian coast of the country. Zadar is a city rich in historical culture, beautiful attractions and monuments to visit and many undiscovered natural landscapes.

Also visit the Roman Forum, the St Anastasia’s Cathedral. If you wandered around the city and discovered the local attractions, check out the amazing beaches in the area.

Explore historical Zadar

The history of Zadar begins in prehistoric times. It is believed to be the oldest continuously inhabited city in all of Europe. This makes the city incredibly interesting. You can visit historic sites from different periods in time. The People's Square is surrounded by historical buildings from different eras.

The Zadar land city gates are stunning remnants of Venetian architecture, they are the gateway to the old town.

Discover mystical Zadar

There is a legend about St Simon, who had died and was supposed to be brought back to Venice, where he was meant to be buried. The merchant who was carrying his corpse had to stop in Zadar when the weather turned. They buried the body in the grounds of some church grounds under the pretense that this was the merchant’s brother. Unfortunately the merchant passed away, before he could complete his mission and bring St. Simon to his final resting place in Venice. This is when the priests who had helped him found out who he was carrying.

Sailing conditions in Zadar

The sailing season in Zadar starts in May and ends in October. The summer months June, July and August are the most popular months for sailing due to the hot weather and the lack of rain. In August you can expect up to 13 hours of daylight! Sea temperatures are also warmest during these months. While the temperatures can already be warm in May and stay warm in September and October, these months are less popular among tourists. This gives people an advantage who prefer to sail during this time of year. Boats will be cheaper and you don’t have to share the most popular spots in and around Zadar with huge amounts of tourists.

How much does it cost to rent a boat in Zadar?

In recent years Croatia has risen to one of the top sailing destinations in the Mediterranean! You can find hidden beaches and bays as well as historical sites, delicious traditional food and stunning nature. How much it costs to rent a boat in Zadar and Croatia in general highly depends on the season, the type of boat, the amount of people travelling with you, the number of bed- and bathrooms you find on board and the age of the boat.

Renting a speedboat in Croatia will cost you 30 EUR per person per day on average, meaning that it can be even cheaper than renting a hotelroom. Keep in mind though that speedboats are not necessarily the ideal type of boats to sail around Zadar for a week. A few days will be perfect to spend on a speedboat. Renting a motorboat in Croatia can be more expensive, but won’t break your bank either. It will cost you 62 EUR per person per day on average to rent a motorboat. It will cost you 75 EUR per person per day on average to rent a gulet in Croatia. The average price of 460 EUR per person per day makes catamarans the most expensive types of boats to rent in Croatia.

As these are only average prices, you might find even cheaper deals - especially when booking during shoulder season.

What type of boat is best for sailing in Zadar?

What type of boat you should charter in Zadar all depends on the type of boat holiday you would like to experience here. If you just want to relax by the beach or on deck you would rent a different type of boat than the one you would go for if you’re excited to sail along the Croatian coast from Zadar as fast as you can.

Rent a catamaran in Zadar

Pros of renting a catamaran in Zadar

One of the advantages of renting a catamaran in Zadar is the fact that they are equipped with a sail as well as an engine. When the wind is blowing, you can sail with the engine nature provided and should the wind suddenly stop blowing, you can fall back on plan B and use the engine instead. This gives you a huge advantage, because you don’t need to wait in the middle of the sea for the wind to start blowing again.

Another advantage of chartering a catamaran is the fact that they have a shallow draft rather than a keel like sailboats. This makes them the perfect type of boat to explore the many secluded bays and beaches Croatia has to offer.

Also, catamarans are often more spacious than other types of boats. You might feel like being in a hotel room on water rather than an actual boat at times.

One of the most popular catamarans to rent in Zadar is Catamaran Fountaine Pajot Astrea 42 which offers space for up to 8 people. You can either sail the boat yourself if you have a boat licence or hire a captain to do it for you. Keep in mind that the price will increase if you hire a captain or skipper.

Cons of renting a catamaran in Zadar

One of the disadvantages of renting a catamaran in Zadar can be the fact that catamarans are generally quite spacious. This can make it a challenge to find a spot for mooring at the marinas - especially in the busy summer months and with Croatia becoming increasingly popular among tourists from around the world who want to vacation on a boat. Also, you might be charged more for mooring at a marina than with a smaller type of boat. You might be better off finding a spot for anchoring in one of the stunning bays Dalmatia has to offer.

Charter a catamaran in Zadar

Rent a sailboat in Zadar

Pros of renting a sailboat in Zadar

One of the advantages of renting a sailboat in Zadar is the fact that they solely run on wind and not on fuel. This makes it cheaper to sail on a sailboat than on another type of boat. Luckily, this part of Croatia is known for its ideal wind conditions.

Sailboats are not for everyone, but especially for those who are looking for an adventure at sea. Feel the wind on your skin and practice your sailing skills. It is more difficult than driving a motorboat or speedboat, but if you’re someone who wants to improve their skills, a sailboat is perfect for you. If you don’t want to sail yourself, you can always hire a skipper for an additional price.

One of the most popular sailboats to rent in Zadar is Sailboat Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 440 . Offering space for up to 8 people, this sailboat is the perfect boat for a sailing holiday in Zadar. You can rent this boat without a captain if you have a valid boat licence or rent it with a captain if you just want to relax on your sailing holiday on the Dalmatian coast or if you don’t have a boat licence. For some extra fun on board, you can rent a barbecue when paying extra.

Cons of renting a sailboat in Zadar

One of the downsides of chartering a sailboat in Zadar is the fact that they solely run on wind. Should the wind suddenly stop blowing, you might get stuck in the middle of the sea. When this happens, you have no choice but to wait until the wind picks up again. This can become incredibly frustrating - especially if you just have a week to sail around Zadar and the Dalmatian coast.

Another downside of renting a sailboat in Zadar can be the fact that you won’t have enough space to sunbathe on deck. All the equipment that is necessary to sail properly will take up all the space on deck.

Rent a speedboat in Zadar

Pros of renting a speedboat in Zadar

One of the advantages of renting a speedboat in Zadar is the fact that they are super fast and super easy to navigate. They are the perfect type of boat to navigate around Zadar and the surrounding area.

Speedboats are the perfect boat to sail around the Dalmatian coast. When coming to this part of Croatia, you probably have a bucket list to tick off all the places you would like to see when visiting. Driving a speedboat means that you get to see more places in a shorter amount of time.

One of the most popular speedboats to rent in Zadar is Speedboat Jeanneau Cap Camarat 6.5 WA which has one cabin on board with two beds.

Cons of renting a speedboat in Zadar

One of the downsides of renting a speedboat in Zadar is the fact that they are relatively small compared to other types of boats. You can definitely sail on a speedboat for a few days, but it is not the type of boat that you would rent for a week-long trip or longer.

Like motorboats, speedboats run on fuel. If you sail on your speedboat all day long and as fast as you can, you will need a lot of fuel - and fuel costs money. With the ever-increasing fuel prices don’t be surprised if you have to pay more for fuel than expected.

Rent a motorboat in Zadar

Pros of renting a motorboat in Zadar

One of the advantages of renting a motorboat in Zadar is the fact that they are faster than other types of boats, taking you around Zadar, the Croatian coast and the surrounding islands in no time. You surely get to see everything that you want to see when coming here.

Another advantage of chartering a motorboat in Zadar are their shallow drafts. This makes them the perfect boats to explore the many secluded bays and beaches this part of the Mediterranean has to offer. You can sail closer to the shore and see all the natural beauty from up close. You can swim to the beaches without having to use up all your energy to get there when anchoring closer to the shore.

Cons of renting a motorboat in Zadar

One of the downsides of renting a motorboat is the fact that they run on fuel. The increasing fuel prices can make this a costly experience that you should be prepared to pay.

Motorboat rental in Zadar

Charter a luxury yacht in Zadar

Chartering a private luxury yacht in Zadar is a great way to enjoy your sailing vacation in the Mediterranean if you have the money. Get a glimpse of the life of the rich and famous for a week and see the best Croatia has to offer. Make your dream come true with one of the most popular luxury yachts to rent in Sibenik from where you can easily sail up north to Zadar. Rent Motorboat Ferretti 450 which offers space for up to six people on board, as well as a spacious sundeck, a fridge and a coffee machine. An elegantly decorated yacht invites you to enjoy your vacation.

What kind of boat license do you need when renting a boat in Zadar?

Renting a boat in Zadar means that you are required to have a valid boat licence and a valid VHF radio licence. If you are not in possession of these two, you are unfortunately not allowed to operate a boat in Croatian waters. Also, it doesn’t matter if you have a Croatian or an International boat license. However, there might be a chance that your foreign boat licence is not recognized in Croatia. There, it is always best to carry an International Certificate of Competency or short ICC .

Anyone who wants to get their boat licence in Croatia can do so through the Administration of Maritime and Port Authority authorities . You can take the test and get your valid licence.

If you don’t have a boat licence and don’t want to get one, you can always hire a skipper . Hiring a skipper with your bareboat charter in Zadar means that your boat vacation will become slightly more expensive, but you have someone on board navigating the boat who knows this region well and can even show you some hidden beaches and bays that you might never find yourself.

Sailing routes in Zadar

One of the most popular sailing routes is leading you from Zadar to Split . Sail along the Croatian coast and some beautiful islands along the way.

A lovely sailing route starting from Zadar takes you to your first stop, Vragada . This beautiful island is not as popular as other islands in this part of Croatia and therefore looks like a very traditional spot with the most stunning natural scenery. Beautiful beaches and blue waters are welcoming you on the island. From Vragada you sail to Sali , a picturesque village on the island of Dugi Otok . Discover this sleepy fishing village before heading out to explore the many hidden bays and beaches the island has to offer. From Sali sail to Kornat i, a breathtaking national park filled with reefs, incredible islands and more natural wonders. There is so much to discover that you will be left speechless many times due to the natural beauty of this part of Croatia. Spend the next two days exploring the Kornati islands to make sure that you don’t miss out on seeing anything. From Kornati sail to Skradin , where you get to dive deeper into the history of Croatia. Many remnants of the past take you back to different periods of time. Zlarin is your next stop. This beautiful island is a great spot to explore the natural beauty of Croatia. Approximately 2700 hours of sunshine each year await you on Zlarin, making it the perfect destination for a sailing adventure. The island is probably best known for its corals. They are traditionally given to newborn babies as a gift, because their colours change in different temperatures which make them a blessing for knowing if the child’s temperature is increasing too much. From Zlarin sail back to Zadar, where you get to wander around the historical streets and squares before leaving the beauty of the Dalmatian coast behind and flying home. There is so much to see in this part of Croatia and the Dalmatian coast that you probably want to return very soon!

This new company is offering bumper boat rentals on the Milwaukee River

Summer is almost here, and the Milwaukee River is already welcoming paddleboards, kayaks and pontoons.

And this year, another type of watercraft will be available for rentals. Cream City Boats , a new company founded by lifelong Milwaukee resident Matt Weber, rents out single-person, saucer-shaped electric "party boats." They look and function similarly to amusement park bumper boats but can't be used as aggressively.

"You can do a light tap with your friends, but you're not ramming and smashing into each other," Weber said. Weber was also the man behind the river's Kanaloa Tiki Lounge party pontoon , which he sold a few years ago, though it still operates today.

Weber's new electric boats launch from Schlitz Park. Each boat features a chair atop the circular base and a throttle that functions as a steering handle. "They turn on a dime. You can spin them in complete circles," he said.

Cream City Boats has operated since the beginning of May. Only about 10 people have rented so far, but more are booked in advance for later this summer. The first customers have enjoyed "doing donuts" while spinning in circles in the boats, which go about 5 miles per hour, and seeing the river scenery from a new perspective, Weber said.

"Everybody that's been on them has loved it," he continued. "They're smiling, they're laughing, they're happy to tell their friends about it. It's been great so far; it's been a very warm welcome."

Each boat is equipped with a dry box to store your phone and other valuables. You can rent a cooler for snacks or a waterproof Bluetooth speaker for an additional $10 each.

But, if you're considering enjoying a beer while floating down the river, you'll need to think again. Alcohol is forbidden on the boats. However, with each rental, you receive a $2 off coupon for a beer at the Tap Yard in Schlitz Park once you get back from the river.

Rentals are only available to adults 18 and older. Anyone born after Jan. 1, 1989, must complete a boater safety course before renting. You can obtain a lifetime boater's safety license here: www.boaterexam.com/usa/wisconsin/  or a temporary boat rental license here: www.boat-ed.com/wisconsinrental/ .

How to rent bumper boats from Cream City Boats

Rentals are available Thursday through Sunday all summer long until the end of September, whenever the weather is cooperating. Currently, you can rent between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., though hours may be extended as the summer days get longer, Weber said.

Rentals are $75 per boat for 90 minutes, and each boat has a 90-minute timer to make sure you come back on time. For safety purposes, you must rent at least two boats at a time. According to the website, a $500 security deposit is required for all rentals.

Cream City Boats has 10 boats available in total; if you rent all 10, one is free.

Visit creamcityboats.com to learn more and book a rental in advance.
