Yacht Charter Šibenik

Sailing in Šibenik

Šibenik sits where the Krka River meets the Adriatic, reached by sea through the narrow St Anthony Channel beneath the St Nicholas Fortress, one of two local UNESCO World Heritage sites alongside the Cathedral of St James. This sheltered approach makes the city a calm, scenic starting point compared with open-coast bases. Charter yachts berth at Marina Mandalina and the adjoining D-Marin Mandalina. Up-river lies Krka National Park with its waterfalls, while seaward the Kornati archipelago and the islands of Žirje, Kaprije and Zlarin open a route into central Dalmatia. The position suits sailors who want both protected first-night waters and quick access to remote island cruising, from short family loops to longer passages toward Split and the outer islands. It works well for mixed itineraries combining nature, history and island-hopping.
