Split.

Build the week around a manageable stretch of coast.

Ask whether the boat returns to its starting marina, how many hours a typical passage takes and which nights are likely to be spent in harbour. A short list of places usually leaves more time ashore and at anchor than an ambitious island circuit. Confirm the route with the skipper for your particular dates.

Make the details work for you.

When enquiring about Split, ask for the exact departure point, a suggested itinerary and a full price for your dates. Confirm the cabin layout and what is included before making travel arrangements.
