How much does it cost to hire a catamaran in Split?

The cost of a charter in Split depends on numerous factors, such as the model of the catamaran, the season and duration of your hire and any extras that you may need, such as water sports equipment. In the low season, you can expect to pay an average of £3,150/week for your catamaran and in the high season, you can expect to pay an average of £5,250/week.

Why should you charter a catamaran in Split with a skipper?

You have the possibility of booking a catamaran charter in Split with or without a skipper. If you hold a valid boating license and wish to venture along the Croatian coast at your own speed, we highly recommend chartering a bareboat catamaran. You will be able to visit the numerous islands, towns and national parks according to your own preferences.

If you’re seeking a more relaxing holiday, it is also possible to hire a catamaran with a captain. The skipper will take care of all sailing logistics and will show you the best destinations, including hidden gems which remain unknown by other visitors. This is the most authentic way to experience the Dalmatian coast. If you opt for a captain, the fee will be included in the total price of your yacht charter.

In Split, there are plenty of catamarans to choose from, in all shapes and sizes and from different brands like Lagoon and Fountaine Pajot. Most vessels can welcome up to 10 people - this is particularly ideal for those who are travelling in a group or as a family.

For those of you who desire a more top-of-the-range service, you can also opt for an all-inclusive crewed catamaran in Split. The crew will be here to ensure that your holiday runs smoothly and take care of all tasks onboard, including dining and cleaning. A luxury catamaran experience will make your sailing holiday one to remember.

When is the best time to charter a catamaran in Split?

The best time to travel to Split is between May and October when the temperatures are high and there is little chance of precipitation. July and August are the hottest months of the year, but they are also unsurprisingly the busiest times to visit the city. If you wish to escape the crowds while also soaking up the sun, we highly recommend travelling to Split between May and June or in September and October. During these months, the water temperatures are still high enough for swimming.

What to do in Split?

Split is a magical place which deserves to be visited at least once in a lifetime. The Old City is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and boasts architecture from many different eras and civilisations. What makes Split even more special is the fact that it lies at the heart of Europe’s prettiest coastlines. Here are our favourite places to visit with your catamaran:

• Brač, the largest island in Dalmatia and home to the stunning Zlatni Rat Beach, which was voted as one of the most beautiful beaches not just in Croatia, but in the whole world. Brač is also known for its natural beauty and for its freshly-made artisanal products like olive oil and wine.
• Vis, an island formerly used as a military base and home to many stunning beaches, sheltered coves, verdant forests and villages which still retain an authentic Mediterranean atmosphere.
• Korcula, home to one of the best-preserved medieval towns in the entire Mediterranean basin and where the famous explorer Marco Polo (1254-1324) was supposedly born. Korcula also has some of Croatia’s most scenic villages and beaches, waiting to be explored with your catamaran.

We also recommend sailing to other destinations along the coast of Croatia. If you sail south from Split, you will reach the fortified town of Dubrovnik, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with architecture dating back to the Byzantine Empire and the Republic of Venice. From the north of Split, you can take your catamaran to the famous Istrian peninsula, known for its almost-intact beaches and ancient Roman ruins.
