STOKE AFLOAT CROATIA SAILING

Sail the islands of Croatia with Stoke Travel – we always cruise with the best crew, plus we have an open bar!

We’ll live the Croatian dream on the Adriatic Sea. During the day we’ll be swimming in crystal clear lagoons, cliff jumping from terror-inducing heights, and exploring old fortresses; by night, we’ll hit up the best bars and clubs, including Carpe Diem, DEEP, and Croatia’s biggest club Revelin, before turning around and doing it all over again, returning with blurred memories and perfect tans.

We’ll sleep on a gorgeous ship fully facilitated for fulfilling your sailing fantasies: toilets and showers, onboard chef, and a fully stocked bar. For just €15 per day you can drink all the beer and sangria that your heart desires, we don’t want to surprise you with an end-of-trip bar tab that’ll make your eyes water.

WHERE WILL WE SAIL AND WHAT WILL WE DO ALONG THE CROATIAN COAST?

Croatia boasts ancient walled cities and the highest coastal mountain range in the Mediterranean; historic islands and raging party ports; the best nightclubs in the Balkans and snorkelling; sun baking on the deck or swan diving into the ocean. If it is fun and if it is near water we’ll be doing it on Stoke Afloat Croatia sailing trips. 

We will visit vineyards, national parks, and some of Croatia’s craziest clubs; docking up at Split, Hvar, Korçula, Mijet, Dubrovnik and some secrets along the way. We’ll participate in watersports and sunbaking and drinking cocktails and not doing much at all. Our Wet Wednesday banquet dinner is included and spectacular, with a traditional Croatian meal and a glass of wine in a restaurant so beautiful that you’ll think we don’t deserve it – but we most certainly do.

Sailing through Croatia’s islands and along its coast with Stoke Travel is all about good times and nice things with the best people you’re ever going to meet.

WHO’S ONBOARD STOKE AFLOAT CROATIAN SAILING TRIPS?

Don’t worry, the Stoke Crew aren’t going to be the ones sailing the ship, the Croatian family that owns and operates the boat will be in charge of that, with their generations of experience sailing these waters. We’ll have our Stoke Travel guide on board inventing historical facts, encouraging binge drinking and making sure everybody is feeling social and that the boat is one big, happy, floating family. The average number of wenches and scurvy dogs onboard is about 24, and considering that they’ve booked with Stoke Travel you can be assured that they’re going to be just about the funnest, loosest cannons getting around Europe this summer.

TELL ME MORE ABOUT THE CROATIAN SAIL BOAT

Want to see what the boat is like (the vibe and the boat itself) then make sure you keep on scrolling down to the gallery.

Our boats are traditional family-owned and operated Croatian sailing vessels and no two are the same. Beautiful and seaworthy ships of the same type have been plying the Adriatic and Dalmatian coasts – and further afield into the Mediterranean – for hundreds of years. Now they’ve simply used the traditional designs to build Croatian sailing boats specifically for accommodating, and ferrying, tourists along the Croatian shore. The cabins are comfortable, private and air-conditioned, with power outlets so you’re charged up at all times. Our yacht is the MS Maja, a category B traditional Croatian cruiser that sleeps 22 travellers in twin-share cabins. All cabins have a bunk bed, with wash basin, towel, soap, linen, power socket & pillows. Air-Con will run in the main saloon and downstairs halls, and there are common bathrooms/toilets onboard for all guests to use. Wifi is supplied on Maja along with sun chairs, general power sockets, daily swim stops (of course) and beats will be played daily. 

The deck is designed for lying prostrate and praying to the sun gods (and private too – all the better for frying those eggs or giving the impossible-to-tan man’s upper thighs a workout), with the all-important designated shady areas for Scotsmen, albinos and those wanting to swill a beer and trade tales of the high seas. There are common areas for games and carrying on with the telling of tall tales, or simply pre-partying, and a fully stocked bar that’s open for beer and sangria for €15 per day extra.
