Sailing Trip in Croatia as Romantic Getaway for Couples

03.02.2020

Each time when we are about to enter the month of February, the first thing that comes to our minds is Valentine’s Day. It is the day dedicated to all the people who celebrate the love, no matter if it refers to their families, friends, better halves or pets. Some people say that for them Valentine’s Day is every day and that they don’t need to emphasise the importance of that particular day, but some other people would agree that is always nice to celebrate that day as it is easy to feel the love around every corner. That is why, for Valentine’s Day, most people tend to buy some kind of a present to their beloved ones to show their affection and dedication they often forget about due to their everyday responsibilities.

But, have you ever thought of buying something nice as Valentine’s gift and giving it a few months later? Because we have something on our minds! How about buying a few days on a sailing yacht and visiting some of the most romantic destinations along Croatian coast? If you think that would be a great love gift simply keep reading our blog as we bring you some romantic sailing trip ideas.

Zlarin island

Your first romantic getaway could be on Zlarin island, known as the coral island. You could set sail with our Oceanis 35.1 from our newly opened base in Marina Pirovac, pass through the Murter island and Prvić and get to Zlarin. Drop the anchor in one of Zlarin’s bays and enjoy sunny weather as this island is a real sun oasis known for its many sunny days in a year. After enjoying your day onboard and sunbathing on Oceanis’ spacious cockpit, go to have romantic dinner in one of Zlarin’s restaurants and after that take a stroll along one of the longest sea sidewalks among all Croatian islands. The highlight of this romantic trip is visiting the coral museum, one of Zlarin’s longest traditions. Corals are believed to symbolise love, loyalty and fidelity, so make sure you cheer up your better half with a small coral gift.

Small romantic town Rovinj

Way up north from Zlarin, on the western side of the Istrian peninsula you will find another colourful, charming and extraordinary romantic town in Croatia - Rovinj. If you catch the wind in your sails from our Marina Kornati Biograd with Oceanis 38.1 you will have a chance to truly test your sailing skills as this sailing yacht has an impressive sailing performance. What makes Rovinj one of the most desirable sailing destinations is the fact that its well-indented archipelago consists of 14 islands and six cliffs. That means you will have the possibility to choose among numerous secluded beaches and coves to anchor and enjoy your free couple time. Highlights of this journey are Rovinj’s strolls along labyrinths of old city centre streets and observing spectacular sunsets. Could it be more romantic than that?

Dugi otok near Zadar

Going back more south, our next romantic destination is on Dugi Otok, more specific the lighthouse. Setting off on your journey from Marina Kornati Biograd with Bavaria cruiser 33, stunning sailing yacht perfect for couples, you will go past Ugljan, Rivanj, Sestrunj, Zverinac until you get to the north-western cape of Dugi Otok and Veli Rat lighthouse. What makes this lighthouse so special is the fun fact about its yellow colour. According to the oral tradition, that colour was made with 100 000 egg yolks and remained vivid until today. When you anchor your Hanse 320 and prepare lunch in her practical kitchen galley, visit the lighthouse. You can have the most romantic view from above the lighthouse and it is even possible to rent the lighthouse out if you want to have a wedding there or just spend the night in the suite inside it. This could be an ideal, romantic spot for couples who plan their engagement day!

 Port of Vis

Our next romantic destination suggestion along Croatian coast is located slightly above the island of Hvar –Vis Island. The port of town Vis is in the southwest part of the bay. Chartering Bavaria C 37 and starting your journey from our Marina Pirovac, you will sail past Murter island, Šibenik, Šolta and Hvar until you get to Vis. Vis is known as being a movie set for the Mamma Mia movie which there showed its turquoise sea, breathtaking greenery and picturesque scenes. Make sure that you visit Stiniva beach on your sailing journey, which is a perfect anchoring spot for many tourists. Bring your beloved one in a more secluded cove, have a swim and hide from sunshades on the amazing cockpit under the bimini. Vis simply screams the name of romance, so be part of its loving atmosphere.

Korčula island

Our final romantic destination is Korčula island. Located on the south-eastern part from Hvar island, Korčula with a pleasant Mediterranean climate is a dream come true for each sailing couple. Setting sail with Bavaria Cruiser 40 from Marina Pirovac, this elegant sailing yacht will make your romantic, sailing experience unforgettable. That is why you should get comfortably seated when your beloved one manages this sailing yacht towards the island of Marco Polo. Korčula is unique in many contexts, from secluded, relaxing areas to vibrant nightlife. Some say that love goes through the stomach, so you will enjoy tasting typical Korčula’s delicacies such as grilled fish or any kind of seafood.
