Motor Yacht Charter in Croatia

Why Choose a Motor Yacht in Croatia

Motor yachts offer a different kind of freedom compared to sailing. With engine power, you can cover longer distances in a day, reach more remote islands, and spend less time waiting for the right wind conditions. If you want to maximise the number of islands and towns you visit during your charter, a motor yacht makes that possible.

Motor yachts also tend to offer more interior living space than a sailing yacht of similar length, with larger salons, better-equipped kitchens, and more comfortable cabins.

Types of Motor Yacht Available

The motor yacht charter fleet in Croatia ranges from sporty day boats to large luxury motor cruisers with multiple cabins, flybridge helms and tenders. Common options include:

• Sports cruisers (25–35 ft) — fast day boats ideal for exploring from a fixed base, often with a small cabin below
• Motor cruisers (35–55 ft) — comfortable multi-cabin vessels with full galley and heads, suited to week-long charters
• Luxury motor yachts (55 ft+) — larger crewed vessels with premium fittings and professional crew

For motor yachts over 55 feet, you may also want to consider our superyacht charter options.

Where to Charter a Motor Yacht

The main departure points for motor yacht charter in Croatia are Split, Trogir and Dubrovnik on the Dalmatian Coast, and Pula in Istria for the northern Adriatic. A motor yacht opens up possibilities like day trips to the Kornati Islands (a national park of 89 islands with very few inhabitants) or fast crossings to the more distant island of Vis.
