Worth the detour

Where to drop anchor in Split

1

Split — Diocletian's palace

A Roman emperor's retirement palace with a city built inside it, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Riva quay runs along the seafront in front of it, so you arrive directly into the old town.
2

Trogir

Half an hour west on its own small island between the mainland and Čiovo, another World Heritage town. Around 150 of our boats are based here and it is the quieter place to start.
3

Hvar town and the Pakleni islands

The busiest harbour in Dalmatia, with a Venetian square, a fortress above it and the Pakleni islets a few minutes offshore. Palmižana is the standard anchorage when the town is full, which in August it is.
4

Vis

The furthest island out, closed to foreigners until 1989 because it was a Yugoslav naval base. Two harbours — Vis town and Komiža — and a noticeably different, less polished feel.
5

The Blue Cave, Biševo

Off Vis: a sea cave lit from below through an underwater opening, best between about 11:00 and 13:00. Access is by local boat from Mezuporat rather than taking your own yacht in.
6

Stiniva, Vis

A cove reached through a gap in the cliffs barely wide enough for a tender. You anchor outside and go in by dinghy — one of the most striking stops in the Adriatic.
7

Bol and Zlatni Rat, Brač

The shifting shingle spit on Brač's south coast, with Bol harbour beside it. Also the island's wind: the channel between Brač and Hvar funnels the afternoon breeze and is the best sailing in the region.
8

Maslinica, Šolta

A small bay on Šolta's western end with a marina in a restored castle. Forty minutes from Trogir and the most common first night.

Suggested routes

A week out of Split

The four islands from Split

7 days

Out to Vis and back along the Hvar channel. Short legs, deep water, and a town with a restaurant every evening — the week this region is built for.

1

Split

Saturday handover; cross to Maslinica on Šolta rather than staying in the city.
2

Milna or Bobovišća, Brač

South-east into the Brač channel.
3

Vis town or Komiža

The longest leg of the week, out to the far island.
4

Stiniva and the south coast of Vis

Day stop at the cove, then round toward Hvar.
5

Pakleni islands — Palmižana

The islets off Hvar town; the realistic August anchorage.
6

Hvar town or Stari Grad

The harbour, or the quieter World Heritage town on the island's north side.
7

Split

Back up the Brač channel with the afternoon breeze.

From Trogir — the quieter line

7 days

Starts west of the city, which takes a day off the outbound leg and avoids Split's Saturday traffic. Adds Bol and the Brač–Hvar channel, the best sailing water here.

1

Trogir

Handover; short hop to Maslinica on Šolta.
2

Stari Grad, Hvar

A long inlet on the island's north coast; World Heritage field system behind it.
3

Vis

South-west to the outer island.
4

Hvar town / Palmižana

Back east; the Pakleni islets.
5

Bol, Brač

The Brač–Hvar channel — the windiest and best leg of the week.
6

Milna, Brač

Round the island's western end.
7

Trogir

Short crossing back for handover.

Before you book

Local rules and paperwork in Split

Skipper certificate: Required, plus a VHF certificate. Croatia asks for a recognised sailing qualification and a VHF operator's certificate for bareboat, as across the country.
Book berths in high season: Hvar and Split fill in July and August. There is no park fee here, but quay space is the constraint instead. Many marinas and town quays take reservations — use them, or plan on anchoring off.
The Brač–Hvar channel: The afternoon breeze funnels through it. Good news for the sailing and worth knowing for the timing: it builds through the afternoon and makes the Bol stretch the best leg of a week here.
The bura: A north-easterly that arrives hard and fast. Croatia's offshore wind blows strongest in the channels and can appear with little warning. The island harbours on the south sides are the shelter.
The Blue Cave: Go with a local boat, not your own. Entry to the cave on Biševo is by licensed local tender from Mezuporat, and the light is right roughly between 11:00 and 13:00. Plan the morning around it.
Gulets are a real option here: 35 of them in this region. If you are a large group, the crewed gulet is a Dalmatian product in its own right rather than a Turkish import — more deck space and a cook, at the cost of sailing performance.

Checked October 2026. Rules change — confirm the detail that matters for your trip when you book.

How full is the calendar in Split?

Share of the Split fleet that already holds at least one reservation, for each of the next twelve months. Taken from the operators' own calendars and refreshed daily — a boat with one week booked can still be chartered in the others.

Months further out look emptier simply because they are further away — most charters are booked a few months ahead, not a year.

About the destination

Why charter from Split

Split is central Dalmatia's charter capital and a noticeably different market from the Kornati coast an hour north. The boats here average 16.1 metres — the largest average of any Mediterranean region in our catalogue — and the mix tells you why: 252 catamarans and 191 motor yachts against 332 monohulls, plus 35 gulets. This is a region sold on island towns, restaurants and comfortable passages rather than on bare rock and national parks.

The geography is unusually convenient. Four substantial islands sit in a line within a day's sail of the city: Šolta closest, then Brač, Hvar and Vis furthest out, with the Pakleni islets strung along Hvar's western end. Each has harbours with somewhere to eat and something to see, the channels between them are wide and deep, and you can build a week that never involves more than four hours of sailing in a day.

The city itself is worth the first or last night. Diocletian's palace is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the old town is built inside its walls — you moor in the middle of it. Trogir, half an hour west and where another 150-odd of our boats are based, is a second World Heritage town on its own island.

There is no national park here, which is a practical difference from Kornati: no entry tickets, no mandatory buoys, no ranger checks. What you pay for instead is the quay, and in Hvar town in August that is not cheap.

The fleet of 811 boats is spread across ACI Split, Kaštela, Baotić, ACI Trogir and several smaller marinas, with weekly rates from about €714 — and, at the other end, past €260,000 for the crewed yachts the city also hosts.
