Kornati Flotilla, Croatia
Created out of ‘tears, stars and breath’, according to George Bernard Shaw, the uninhabited Kornati Islands – an archipelago of one hundred and forty islands that have been declared a National Park - are an area of outstanding natural beauty, their olive groves, vineyards and orchards tended by neighbouring islanders.
On a Kornati flotilla holiday you will spend a week of pure, peaceful sailing cruising the crystal clear waters that surround the remote lunar landscape of the islands, stopping to swim, dive, snorkel or simply marvel at the beauty of it all.
Quaint fishing villages offer a choice of simple restaurants serving delicious Croatian food.
Sunsail’s new flotilla base is located on the island of Krapanj, near Sibenik, and boasts excellent facilities. Sailing here is best suited to those with reasonable previous sailing experience although navigation is easy with line-of-sight sailing.
Winds are light and variable in the mornings, with afternoon breezes and calm nights. Winds are generally south-easterly and range from 5 – 20 knots (6 - 23 mph). Summer temperatures range from 23 to 30 C (73 - 86 F) so not generally as hot as some of our Greek and Turkish locations.
Secluded anchorages are plentiful and at town quays lazy lines are usually employed, making mooring easy.
