Who CASABLANCA suits

CASABLANCA is tailored for substantial parties, accommodating 36 guests across 30 cabins with a dedicated crew of 10 attending to life on board. At 53.3 m, she delivers generous volume and flexibility, making her a fitting selection for corporate retreats, private events, or extended multi-generational voyages. Guests can gather sociably in the open air, soak in the jacuzzi on deck while taking in coastal panoramas, or retreat inside to spaces kept delightfully cool by air conditioning.

When compared with similar yachts listed for Croatia, she is longer and accommodates more guests, providing an expansive capacity for her category. Her build year of 2017 is similar to comparable yachts in the region, and her weekly rate is similar as well. This makes her a compelling choice for planners who require substantial cabin arrangements without stepping into a steeper cost bracket.

The best time to cruise Croatia, East Italy, and the East Mediterranean aboard CASABLANCA depends upon the desired pace. Summer itineraries during June, July, and August bring warm sunshine and calm waters, well suited to leisure outdoors. For uncrowded cruising across the East Mediterranean, Croatia, and East Italy, her programme also spans into winter for 2027, with availability running through months such as September, October, November, and December.

Cruising Croatia: when to go and where to anchor

Best time

The charter season runs from May to October. July and August are the warmest and busiest months, with light to moderate Maestral winds blowing from the north-west in the afternoons. May, June, September, and October offer quieter anchorages and cooler temperatures. The Bora, a strong north-easterly wind, and the Jugo, a south-easterly wind, are more frequent outside the peak summer months, requiring careful anchorage selection.

Practical tips

  • Fly into Split (SPU) or Dubrovnik (DBV). Split marinas are about 30 minutes away, Trogir is 5 to 10 minutes, and ACI Marina Dubrovnik is 30 minutes from DBV.
  • Yachts must register crew and guest lists with the e-Crew system before departure, and local tourist taxes are calculated per person, per day.
  • Town quays often use lazy lines rather than anchors. Harbourmasters allocate berths on a first-come, first-served basis, so arrive early in the afternoon during July and August.

Anchorages to know

  • Hvar Town, Hvar
    A busy port with Venetian architecture, offering town quay mooring and a nearby anchorage at the Pakleni Islands for quieter nights.
  • Skradin, Krka River
    Located up the Krka River, this town provides access to the Krka National Park waterfalls and requires navigating a buoyed channel from Šibenik.
  • Polače, Mljet
    A large, pine-fringed bay on the northern coast of Mljet Island, providing good holding and direct access to the trails of Mljet National Park.
  • Zaklopatica, Lastovo
    A well-protected bay on the northern side of Lastovo island, shielded by a small islet, offering safe mooring and clear water for swimming.
