Regattas & Flotillas

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. EXPLORE. DREAM. DISCOVER.  

If you are already a sailor, or you are tending to be, if you like that spirit connected with regattas, racing adrenaline, friendly atmosphere combined with beautiful Croatia´s Adriatic coast, or, maybe, you just want to become more experienced, or just want to try to compete for the first time, then you are on the perfect place. We either organize our own regattas, or we can organize for you your own regatta or place/boat in a regatta that you would like to compete in. 

Therefore we reviewed the calendar of the Croatian Sailing Federation and, among 409 contests this year, selected  REGATTAS which are the most important or most interesting, either according to the number of participants, the quality of the sailing boats, the sailing routes, or the idea behind the event itself. Some of the regattas we will present here already have an international profile and are well known to foreign sailors coming to Croatia, while others are still relatively unknown, but as we see their idea- they will grow for sure!

The Calendar of the Croatian Sailing Federation for 2022 is announced 

Also, you can always order a boat for private participation in the regatta.
