ShareGulets are traditional wooden yachts designed for comfortable, multi-day cruising, offering more space and stability than standard sailing boats. With a professional crew on board, they are well suited for relaxed travel between islands without the need for sailing experience. Split stands out as a gulet charter base thanks to its central Adriatic position, developed marina infrastructure and direct access to Dalmatian islands.
Split is the natural center of the Adriatic coast and one of the most important ports in Croatia, offering benefits such as:
Split is easily reachable by air, with Split Airport located around 25 kilometers (15 miles) from the city center. The airport offers regular flights to and from many major European cities, including London, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and Vienna. Additionally, starting in the summer of 2026, there will be direct seasonal flights from New York/Newark to Split Airport (around 9–10 hours).
In addition to air travel, Split has good road links to other important Croatian towns including Zagreb, Zadar, and Dubrovnik.
Starting your gulet charter from Split offers seamless access to some of the Adriatic’s most captivating islands. Departing from ACI Marina Split or Marina Kaštela, you can explore these unique spots:

From late spring to early autumn, Split offers ideal conditions for a traditional gulet cruise. Warm, sunny days (20–30°C / 68–86°F) and calm Adriatic waters create the perfect setting for leisurely journeys, allowing guests to enjoy relaxed sailing between islands and charming coastal towns.
Gentle Maestral winds in the afternoons ensure smooth passages, while sheltered bays and quiet marinas provide safe anchorages for swimming, sunbathing, or savoring fresh local cuisine aboard.
During the off-season, from late autumn to early spring, cooler temperatures, occasional rain, and stronger winds can make longer trips less comfortable. Sailing at this time is better suited for experienced crews or shorter, more flexible itineraries along the coast.
Gulets provide a unique and comfortable experience, ideal for a range of occasions, which makes them a favored choice for sailing along the Adriatic. While each trip can be tailored to specific needs, here are some of the most popular reasons to charter a gulet in Split:
Gulets are large, complex wooden yachts that always come with a professional crew. The crew handles navigation, maintenance, and onboard services, allowing guests to relax and enjoy their trip safely.
Other types of boats, such as sailboats or catamarans, can be rented bareboat, meaning without a crew, by experienced sailors who want to captain their own trip. This option requires sailing skills and offers greater independence.
Since gulets are always chartered with a professional crew, you don’t need a sailing license to enjoy your trip. The experienced crew takes care of all navigation and operations.
For bareboat charters of other yachts, you must have a skipper’s license for pleasure boats issued in your home country and recognized by Croatian maritime authorities and a valid VHF radio license.
By choosing Danielis Yachting for your gulet charter in Split, you’re selecting a partner with extensive experience and a commitment to quality service. Our professional crew handles navigation and onboard needs, so you can unwind and enjoy the stunning Adriatic surroundings. With meticulously maintained gulets and a personalized approach, Danielis Yachting ensures a hassle-free and memorable sailing journey along Croatia’s beautiful coastline.
