Our team will be waiting to meet you here on Saturday from 11 am. You can drop your bags off, meet the crew, and get ready for your trip. Arriving early will give you plenty of time to head to the local supermarket and pick up your favourite drinks and snacks.
You will board your yacht between 1pm and 3pm. We recommend arriving at the marina no later than 2pm.

Tipping
In the yachting industry, it is customary to tip your Skipper. If you feel that your Skipper has done an awesome job during your week onboard, please feel free to tip them at the end of the week, the industry standard is 5 – 10% of the trip cost. Similarly, it is customary to consider tipping up to 10% for a meal at restaurants throughout Croatia.
Taxis & Transfers
Some ports where we dock are a short trip via water taxi or transfer from the main town. On these occasions, we park there because it is not practical to dock in the main town, or regulations do not allow it. The taxi cost is usually nominal (€10 per person, one way). Please note that some services have a minimum capacity, so make sure you group together to make this as cheap as possible.

Safety at Sea
Sustainable Sailing
At MedSailors, we are committed to continuous improvements in environmental, economic & social sustainability and want to ensure we all travel more responsibly on and off the water. Here are some ideas on how you can help us leave smiles not waste.
Reducing Pointless Plastics
One of the biggest environmental issues today is plastic and sadly the hardest hit is our beautiful ocean. We ask that you minimise your use of plastic whilst on holiday with us by packing a reusable tote bag to use when shopping and also saying no to pointless plastics during the trip.
We also ask that you pack a reusable water bottle for the trip!
Recycled Floatie Programme
We’re recycling our past guest’s floaties to help reduce plastic waste! For a small donation, you can pick up a lilo, ring, unicorn, or even a pineapple at check-in. All proceeds support UOcean, a charity dedicated to cutting ocean plastic pollution. Their mission is to remove waste from rivers, beaches, and oceans, aiming to reduce ocean plastic by 80%. So, not only do you get a fun floaty, but you also contribute to protecting our oceans!
Ocean Friendly Toiletries
If you can, please bring ocean-friendly products to use on board the yachts – this means eco-friendly sun creams, soaps, deodorants, and so on. With so much time spent in the water, we want to make sure we are keeping our ocean as pristine as possible and clean for our future guests (and generations)!
Local Payment
A local payment of €150 per person is required to cover the yacht's operational costs, including marina fees, local taxes and fuel.
This payment must be made in Euros (€).
You can pay this amount in advance using the link provided below or opt to pay in cash at check-in.
If you choose to pay online, please ensure you keep your receipt to present to your Skipper and Guest Experience Leader at check-in.
Local Weather and Temperature
Between May and October, Croatia enjoys warm, sunny weather—perfect for sailing and exploring.
May and June bring pleasant temperatures between 20°C and 30°C (68°F to 86°F), with the sea warming up to 20°C to 24°C (68°F to 75°F).
July and August are the hottest months, reaching 25°C to 35°C (77°F to 95°F), with the sea a toasty 28°C (83°F).
The high heat during the peak summer months makes it the perfect time for swimming, but be sure to stay hydrated and take plenty of breaks in the shade.
September stays warm at 22°C to 30°C (72°F to 86°F), with the sea still great for a dip, making it a fantastic late-summer escape!
