Trogir, Croatia’s most celebrated medieval port, sits at the point where the Dalmatian coast opens into a chain of islands that constitutes some of the finest yacht charter sailing in the Mediterranean. At 75,000 Euros per week, the local charter fleet is broad: motor yachts of 28 to 38 metres and comfortable sailing yachts, mostly built in the past fifteen years, crewed by experienced Adriatic sailors who know every anchorage between Solta and Vis.nnCroatia’s summer conditions are consistent and rewarding. The maestral wind fills in from the northwest each morning, creating steady sailing through the island chain, and dies by evening so that nights at anchor are calm and warm. Water temperature in July and August sits around 25 to 26 degrees, and visibility extends well beyond fifteen metres, making swimming and snorkelling a natural part of each day.nnAt 75,000 Euros per week, the APA typically runs 20 to 25 percent, adding 15,000 to 18,750 Euros for fuel, marina fees, food and drinks. The main costs vary by how far the yacht travels and how much port berthing the itinerary requires. Kornati entry fees are modest but worth budgeting. High season in July and August is the most competitive for bookings; June and September offer near-identical weather with quieter anchorages and more flexible availability.nnTrogir is an exceptional home base. The old town, a five-minute walk from the main marina, rewards an evening ashore with its seafood restaurants, stone lanes and summer concerts in the cathedral courtyard.
