Hiring a yacht is the ideal way to explore the hidden beauties of Korčula, situated in central Dalmatia. Thanks to its proximity to the Peljesac peninsula and its access to a varied collection of beaches, a yacht charter in Korčula will allow you to plan a leisurely cruise from coast to coast. Korčula has a couple of marinas where you can find the ideal yacht of your choice. You can directly contact the owners of the vessels for the ideal yacht, or simply allow a BednBlue travel expert to guide you with some suggestions.
You have plenty of options:
You can book and hire a yacht with a skipper, or without if you own a license, and enjoy a one-day cruise to Mljet. You also have the option to rent a motor yacht and tour various islands around the Korčula archipelago with ease and comfort. Finally, you can hire a luxury yacht and go island-hopping for as many days as you please, taking your time to explore the destinations that rest between Split and Dubrovnik.
Korčula is the greenest island in the Adriatic, known for its picturesque old town, also rumored to be the birthplace of Marco Polo. Before you begin your yachting adventure in Korčula, you cannot miss the chance to explore the old town. It is filled with gray-stone houses, palaces, churches, and town walls. Often compared to the walled city of Dubrovnik, Korčula’s main drawcard is the medieval buildings that have a distinctly Venetian flair. The splendid cathedral of Svelte Marko (St Mark's Cathedral) features ornate columns, incredible stonework, and Renaissance-style reliefs. Visiting it is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon. Korcula town is also home to local food restaurants and bars that are known all over Croatia. Once you have devoted an afternoon to the town, it is time for you to rent a yacht in Korcula and explore the surrounding sparkling waters of the Adriatic.
With a private yacht charter in Korčula, you can spend a few days visiting the islands that encircle Korčula. The archipelago features hidden beaches with plenty of opportunities for swimming and snorkeling. The island of Vrnik, Stupe, and Badija, for example, are excellent spots to set anchor. Vrbnik is well known for its deep, stone quarries and has a lot of secluded swimming spots. Badija is the largest island in the archipelago and features a Franciscan Monastery. Passing by the channel’s uninterrupted views, you will find the waters are very clean and suitable for sunbathing. For some extra options for your yacht tours in Korčula, Przina beach, Bacva Beach, and Pupnatska beach are great choices. In these areas, you can take up a good spot with your yacht and enjoy swimming.
You can rent a yacht in Korčula and enjoy a day cruise to Mljet, the most forested island in the Adriatic. The Mljet National Park is a large area that connects boats from both sides with a small lake called Sveta Marija. A cruise through the park with your motor yacht will allow you to take in the peaceful natural surroundings. On the eastern tip of the island, you can swim in the sandy beaches of a large bay known as Saplunara, sheltered from the Bura and Mistral winds. Your tour in Mljet can also be combined with Cavtat and Dubrovnik. Cavtat has fantastic local restaurants, bars, and water sports activities. The Elaphite islands are wonderful sailing spots that rest between Mljet and Dubrovnik. You can therefore plan the perfect 3-day or 4-day cruise and visit them too. Arriving in the harbor of Dubrovnik, you can greet the day with a walk in the city walls and admire the views over a sumptuous Adriatic meal. Southern Croatia is generally a superyacht hotspot, with some of the Mediterranean’s top party destinations. By hiring a luxury motor yacht, you can appreciate the history and scenery. You may even book an unforgettable wedding day. Supetar, Lastovo, and Hvar are ideal locations for such special itineraries.
By hiring a yacht in Korčula, you can also embark on an exciting adventure to Split. On your way there, you can make stops at Hvar, Komiza, and Vis. The beauty of navigating such islands is that you will explore quiet anchorages and nature reserves. Moreover, you will have the chance to anchor by the coast to visit beautiful palaces, fortresses, and towns. Most of the owners on our platform reserve the right to alter the itinerary without prior notice. This way, our guests can select their favorite yacht and plan their preferred sailing route and duration of activities.
