Description

Imagine this: You and your loved ones cruising through the stunning Zadar archipelago on a luxurious sailboat. Spend the entire day immersed in sailing, swimming in crystal-clear waters, basking in the sun, and exploring vibrant marine life. Start your day at 09am at Obala Kneza Branimira 27, Zadar. From here, we'll embark on a scenic cruise across the Zadar Channel, arriving at the stunning bays of Ugljan Island by mid-day. These calm, serene bays are perfect for a variety of activities such as swimming, snorkeling and exploration. Depending on your preferences, the adventure continues with a sail to the picturesque Island of Ošljak or charming local villages on Ugljan. We’ll take a relaxing break for lunch or coffee, allowing you to soak in the local culture and scenery. In the afternoon, enjoy a unique sailing as we make our way back, with breathtaking views of the islands and a panoramic vista of Zadar's old town. The excursion concludes with our return to the marina by 05pm.

Trip cancelled 1 hour before departure.

We booked a full day sailing tour on my son’s 20th birthday. 1 hour before we were due to depart the tour was cancelled by email no explanation given. I tried calling but there was no answer. Had we been advised the day before we could have made alternate plans. Very disappointing would not recommend.

You must take this trip!!!

Absolutely wonderful! Tino, our captain for the day, was very patient and accommodating with our requests. From our first coffee stop to a wonderful fresh seafood lunch, swimming and a nature walk it was a great time. Sails up twice in the day⛵️⛵️. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a lovely day out in Zadar.

A perfect day on the water!

We had a brilliant day island hopping around the Zadar archipelago with Marlin Sailing. We hired two boats - and both guides were friendly and knowledgeable. They listened to our brief (snorkelling, good lunch and pretty scenery) - and took us to beautiful bays where we could snorkel, and a pretty island with a great local restaurant. And as an added bonus - we even saw dolphins in the bay! Would definitely book again!

Sailing a must in Zadar

Sasha was wonderful! We had a terrific time sailing, getting to know about Croatia and snorkeling. The weather was gorgeous and truly what a stunning area in Zadar. Do it!

At the confirmed meeting point, no skipper showed up, no cancellation and no apology

Nobody showed up at the agreed meeting point (appointment confirmed by email). There was a skipper from Zadar Sailing at the pier who was taking a group with him. The skipper contacted Sasha and gave us his phone number. Unfortunately, Sasha stopped answering the phone. We would have been a group of 6 people. No cancellation, no alternatives, nothing more heard...a real shame, Sasha has probably already earned his money this year...perhaps you should ask again the day before whether the tour will go ahead...but no problem, there are enough alternatives on the bridge to the city center that are more reliable....

Relaxation on the water

Everything was what we expected, the first experience with a yacht. Also the possibility to swim and snorkel. A nice relaxing day on the water.

Fantastic three-day sailing with the outstanding skipper Dario. If you want to learn to sail or just enjoy sailing, this is the right place for you. Pozdrav malom mornaru Jakovu.

Wonderful family day out

We took a private full day tour and would very much recommend it. Myself and my wife sail at home and while on holiday in Croatia we wanted to take our 3 kids sailing. They are 9, 5 and 2 and had a wonderful time sailing with our skipper Phillip. The older two really enjoyed getting to drive for a bit. The day was well paced with a 3 stops to swim and explore some of the many islands. As the wind picked up in the afternoon we had an enjoyable sail back to Zadar.

Operator response

Thank You for the review Aidan. It is nice to hear that You and Your family had wonderful day.
