Sometimes, you just want to call someone.

“We’re here. Where would you suggest going next?”

“Can you help us find a berth for tonight?”

“Something on the boat isn’t working. Who should we contact?”

With personal support, you have someone who knows your trip to talk things through with. We can suggest options, help with reservation enquiries and coordinate with your charter base when needed.

You stay in charge of your yacht. We help you work through the details.

Got the route in mind. Still need the yacht?

Tell us your dates, crew size and budget. We’ll help you compare suitable yachts and charter operators, drawing on our experience of life on board.

We look beyond the photographs: cabin layouts, the departure base, equipment and the details of the offer all matter.

We’ll explain the price, compulsory extras and support included before you decide.

Help me find a yacht

From people who sail here.

We’re Bor, Sebestyen and Jure, the people behind Matahari. We plan sailing trips, work with charter bases and spend time on the Croatian coast ourselves.

These guides bring together the details we’d want when planning a trip: realistic sailing days, overnight options and alternatives when the original plan no longer fits.

Before you choose.

What am I buying?

The Sailing Guide is a downloadable PDF for a specific sailing area and its listed departure marinas. The Guide + Personal Support adds assistance for agreed dates and hours. Yacht rental and third-party services are separate unless explicitly included in your offer.

Can I use the guide with a yacht booked elsewhere?

Yes. You can use the guide whether you own a yacht or rent through another company. Check that its departure points and route assumptions suit your boat and crew.

Do I need sailing experience?

Yes. This is an independent sailing trip. Your crew needs a suitably qualified and experienced skipper for the yacht and sailing area. A guide or telephone support does not replace an onboard skipper.

Are marina berths or buoys reserved?

No. The guide provides reservation information where available. With personal support, we can help with reservation enquiries within the agreed service. Availability is not guaranteed, and reservation charges are separate.

What if the weather changes?

The guide includes alternative options and notes on conditions. Your skipper must check current forecasts, local information and conditions before deciding where to go. With personal support, you can also discuss the options with us.

Is personal support available around the clock?

Contact hours and response arrangements are confirmed before booking. Personal support is not an emergency or rescue service.

How do I receive the guide?

After successful payment, you’ll receive an email with a download link to your PDF. Save it to your device before departure so you can read it offline. External booking links and live information require an internet connection.

Does the guide replace nautical charts?

No. It is a trip-planning resource. Use up-to-date nautical charts, official forecasts and local notices, and follow your skipper’s judgement.

Start with your departure marina.

Find a guide for your trip, or tell us where you’re sailing if you’d like personal support.
