Sailing from Šibenik on the Adriatic Coast in Croatia

With a chartered sailing yacht from Marina Mandalina, you can explore the Kornati archipelago or nature parks such as Pasman, Uglijan, Dugi Utok from Šibenik. During a sailing holiday in Šibenik, secluded bays and beaches can be discovered away from the tourist hotspots. Due to the diverse underwater world of the Adriatic, diving enthusiasts will also get their money's worth. The islands of Zlarian and Krapanj are among the most beautiful destinations. Also recommended is the one-hour boat trip along the deep gorges of the Krka to Skradin to the unique Krka waterfalls. For this reason the port of Šibenik was voted "world's number one sailing destination" by National Geographic magazine.

Marina Mandalina in Šibenik is located in the opening of the KrKa River and is therefore protected from wind and weather. The best time for a yacht charter is from May to October, as these months are influenced by warm winds. In the spring and autumn months, you should keep an eye on the current weather situation, as bora winds can provide cold air at short notice.

Regular regattas and the annual Adriatic Boat Show are a special sailing highlight. This international nautical fair in Šibenik presents new and used motor and sailing boats, sailing yachts and mega yachts. This makes it a unique event in Croatia and the Dalmatian region.

Yacht charter Šibenik: General information and popular destinations

The medieval port city of Šibenik is one of the best-known Croatian sailing destinations on the Dalmatian coast and one of the largest towns in the north of the region. Sailors can visit numerous sights, museums, churches and fortresses there. The Venetian defence system of Šibenik consists of four fortresses, which have been on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2017. The fortresses of St Michael, St John, St Nicholas and Šubićevac are definitely worth a visit. The lively city centre is terraced and UNESCO-protected. A special highlight of Šibenik is the stone Cathedral of St. Jacob from the 15th century. It is one of the most important buildings in the Dalmatian region.

Its location on the river KrKa makes the harbour town unique: it is only connected to the Adriatic by a narrow strait. Šibenik was one of the first places to be lit by electricity. This is mainly thanks to the first power station in Skradinski, which was built according to the plans of engineer Nikola Tesla.

Directly in the town is Banj beach, which offers its bathers a beautiful view of the old town of Šibenik. The beach of the Solaris Beach Resort includes, with a length of four kilometres, five themed beaches with clean, turquoise sea. In the immediate vicinity there are other beaches with sand or fine pebbles.

Worthwhile excursion destinations around Šibenik are the towns of Vodice, Biograd, Primosten, Zadar or Trogir. In the immediate vicinity is the Krka National Park with its famous waterfalls and the Kornati National Park.
