Yacht rental in Rijeka

Rijeka is the largest port in Croatia. The coastline is indented. Dozens of islands, convenient for the sailing yachts mooring, are scattered around. There are the luxury marinas and the wild anchorages here. In this part of Croatia, there are fewer charter companies, compared with the south, so the yacht rentals choice is narrower.

 

Fiumanka sailing regatta is held in June, and Rijeka’s Regatta — in March. For participation, one needs to register and to rent a boat in Rijeka for several months before the start.

 

The international airport is located on the island of Krk, connected with the land by a bridge. It is about 30 km from the airport to the city center.

 

Kvarner Bay is loved by all yachtsmen. There are no big waves in this area of ​​Rijeka. It is closed by islands on all sides. There are many sheltered bays and beautiful landscapes. Marina Rijeka is located in the center of the city.

 

Korzo is the main embankment of the city. It is called the heart of Rijeka.

 

The five most important islands of Kvarner are Krk, Cres, Losinj, Rab, and northern Pag. These islands are completely different. Northern Pag is suitable for young tourists. Cres and Krk are more suitable for traveling on a yacht with children.

Full recommendation. Great service & support. We chartered a Beneteau 45 in Athens for our trip around Peloponnes. Great service and perfect customer support from beginning to the end. Due to corona we had to postpone our trip - Sailica managed all the communication with the charter agency and negotiated a great new deal for us. This was already the 2nd time we charted with Sailica and it won't be the last time. Full recommendation

I took Dufour Grand Large 560 at Croatia using online yacht rental service sailica.com It's easy to use their mobile app with fair prices and enough quantity of boats which suits to my parameters. Their managers assisted me through whole communication with charter company. It was pleasant to receive a small gift – free of charge transfer from airport to marina. We didn't request it and appreciate their overexpected level of service.

Amazing 1 week in Turkey! I sailed with Sailica on a tour in the gulf of Fethiye in Turkey. Overall it was a great experience and a great crew, even if I did not know them before. The area is amazingly beautiful and if you go in April you can avoid the crowds. The skipper was very proficient and knew what he was doing. Highly recommended!

Great company! The guys answered all our questions which were very important since it was our first sailing experience. Moreover, they advised us not only on a charter but also on the tour itself. This was not the responsibility of the company, but we needed help and the company managers helped us for free. I highly recommend the team. The guys are really reliable, proactive and customer-oriented.

Excellent trip to Croatia! The trip was organized on an excellent level since the very beginning - from the yacht search to the trip itself. The team was fast and responsive. Highly recommended to everyone who wants to hang out with family on a beautiful yacht or catamaran!

Super Beratung - sehr schnell wurde für mich ein passendes Boot in der Türkei gefunden. Sehr guter Preis, und ich konnte einen Skipper aussuchen, den ich bereits vom letzten Mal kannte. Volle Empfehlung!
