Hoist your sails; it's time for an adventure on the high seas! Bring your pirate fantasies to life island-hopping through the Caribbean or with a dreamy getaway in Greece.

What to expect on a Sailing adventure

Sail the Croatian Islands with us!
Croatia is the place for you to sunbathe on striking beaches, dine at the finest of restaurants, and party until the sun comes up (or all of the above!). Covering a mix of fan favorites and less-explored locales—from Split to Makarska, Mljet, and Hvar—this sailing trip makes for an Adriatic adventure like no other. If you want to see the best of Croatia (while soaking up as much sun as possible along the way), a sailing trip is the way to go!

Your Sailing trip questions, answered
Do I need to know how to sail?
On most of our Sailing adventures, you'll have a skipper at the helm or at least some crew members to show you the ropes, so no previous sailing experience is required. Some private sailing trips allow you to be the captain, as you'll have the entire boat to yourself, so be sure to double-check with your operator if that's something you'd like to do.
Am I required to help out on the boat?
Sailing adventure operators are fully equipped with a highly skilled crew, so there’s no need to help out on the boat—unless you want to up your onboard skills of course!
What are the cabins like?
This depends on the type of vessel you’ll be on, but it’s likely that your cabin will be small. Typically, couples get their own cabin, while solo travelers will have to either share a cabin with another passenger of the same gender or pay a single supplement for their own cabin. Most cabins are equipped with ensuite bathrooms, but some vessels may have shared facilities. If you have any doubts, your operator will be able to provide details.
How much time is spent off the boat?
Sailing tours have fine-tuned the balance of on and off-shore experiences. A typical day might be waking up on board, heading for a morning swim, then making port at a historic town where you'll stroll the town together, savor local delicacies, and enjoy free time before returning to your boat for the night. Every sailing itinerary is different but most include excursions at the ports, along with a range of land-based activities.
Do I need travel insurance for a Sailing trip?
Travel insurance is mandatory for most of the adventures on TourRadar and must be purchased before you start your travels. It covers trip cancellations, medical emergencies, lost or stolen baggage, and more. As you can imagine, this is extra important when taking a Sailing trip, and in most cases, you can add travel insurance with Cover Genius directly to your TourRadar booking.
