Croatia Sailing Holidays

At Funky Tours, we believe that a sailing adventure should be more than just a journey – it should be an extraordinary and personalized experience. Here’s why choosing us for your Croatia sailing trip is the right decision:

1. Passion for Sailing: We don’t just organize sailing trips; we live and breathe the sea. Our team is genuinely passionate about sailing, and this passion is reflected in every aspect of the trips we curate. Expect an authentic love for the sea, the wind in your sails, and the thrill of exploration.

2. Unique Trip Crafting: Our commitment to excellence means that we design each sailing trip as if we were crafting it for ourselves. We understand that every traveler is unique, and our goal is to create an adventure that resonates with your preferences, ensuring an experience that goes beyond the ordinary.

3. Off-the-Beaten-Path Destinations: While others stick to the well-trodden routes, we take you to the hidden gems along the Croatian Adriatic Coastline. Explore secluded coves, untouched landscapes, and discover the charm of destinations that aren’t on the typical tourist radar.

4. Perfect Mix of Serenity and Bustle: We understand the importance of balance. That’s why our itineraries seamlessly blend off-the-beaten-path destinations with those a bit more busy and touristy. This unique mix allows you to savor moments of tranquility while still enjoying the vibrancy of popular spots.

5. Tailored Experiences: Whether you’re an adventurous solo traveler, a romantic couple, or a family seeking quality time, our trips cater to a diverse range of interests. From shared sails to fully customizable private adventures, we tailor each experience to meet your desires.

When you sail with Funky Tours, you’re not just booking a trip; you’re embarking on a carefully crafted, passion-infused adventure that promises to leave you with unforgettable memories. Join us for a journey that transcends the ordinary and celebrates the spirit of exploration!

1. Discovery Over Partying: While some sailing trips may emphasize a party atmosphere, our focus is on discovery. We believe in creating experiences that allow you to connect with the beauty of the Croatian Adriatic Coastline, explore hidden treasures, and appreciate the serenity of the sea.

2. Off-the-Beaten-Path Exploration: Many tour operators follow well-established routes, but we take you off the beaten path. Our itineraries are designed to unveil the lesser-known gems along the coast, providing a genuine and unspoiled experience that goes beyond the tourist hotspots.

3. Comfortable, Private Experiences: Our sailing adventures are not just about exploration; they are about comfort and privacy. Whether you’re on a shared sail or a private charter, expect private, air-conditioned cabins, ensuring a comfortable retreat after a day of adventure.

4. Tailored to Your Preferences: We understand that every traveler is unique. That’s why our sailing adventures are not one-size-fits-all. We take the time to understand your preferences, allowing us to tailor each trip to your liking. Whether you’re seeking a tranquil escape or an active exploration, we’ve got you covered.

5. Catamaran Comfort: We prefer catamarans for our sailing adventures. The unique design of catamarans provides stability, ample space, and a smoother sailing experience. Enjoy the luxury of panoramic views, spacious decks, and modern amenities on board.

6. Flexible Booking Options: Whether you’re a solo traveler, a couple, a family, or a small group of friends, our booking options are flexible. Join a shared sail for a social experience, or opt for a private charter for an exclusive adventure tailored to your group’s dynamics.

7. Engaging Activities: Our sailing adventures aren’t just about sailing; they’re about engaging activities. From swimming and snorkeling to hiking, kayaking, and even wine, olive oil, and oyster tasting, each day brings a new adventure and a chance to immerse yourself in the local culture.

In essence, Funky Tours’ sailing adventures are a blend of authenticity, comfort, and exploration. We invite you to join us on a journey where discovery takes precedence, and every moment is crafted to make your experience truly memorable.
