Marina for fresh skippers
First cruise as captain
Are you still holding your wet skipper's licence in your hand and your mind is already racing as you stand at the helm of a sailing boat and set sail on your first voyage as a skipper, to meet new adventures? A once-in-a-lifetime feeling. To avoid this moment becoming your nightmare, you need to choose the marina you sail from carefully. Because this time, it really will be up to you - there will be an experienced skipper on hand to give advice and be on hand (on the course) at all times.
Marina suitable for first sailing
One of the friendliest marinas for beginners is the Zaton marina. If you need a place around you, like when you first get out of a Citroen C1 and into a truck, then Zaton Marina fits the bill. There's so much room that you could probably maneuver a giant ocean liner without a problem. Plus, it's nicely tidy in the lee, so whether it's a bura or a yugo, the water level in the marina is like no wind.
Choosing a boat
If you take a slightly battered boat from Dream yacht, you can be sure that the new scratch will not make any wrinkles. But of course it has its ALE!!!! sometimes the boats from Dream aren't quite right, so it's important to be really careful when taking over the boat, so that you don't have 3 out of 4 toilets on the boat clogged...then it would be on you and if someone noticed it when taking over the boat, then it wouldn't be a cheap affair.

Skradin Itinerary: The Best of the Town and the National Park

I chose Croatia. But not the typical kind, where you fight for a spot to lay your towel at the campsite. I wanted something more. And so my personal Skradin itinerary was born—a plan for a week-long escape from reality, where the wind in my hair and the salt water on my skin take center stage.
Yachting in Corsica: Discover the most beautiful coves and wild nature
When the captain of our crew announced over a beer last winter, “This year we’re going yachting in Corsica, guys,” I pictured the usual sunbathing, the occasional grilled fish, and calm seas. How wrong I was! Corsica, that rugged “Island of Beauty,” doesn’t give you anything for free. But what it offers you in exchange for a little sailor’s sweat will stay with you forever.
Sailing and freediving: The perfect harmony of wind and silence beneath the surface
For sailors, the sea is a place of endless adventure and freedom. At the same time, however, this dynamic environment presents unexpected challenges that require quick reactions, a cool head, and specific skills. That is precisely why sailing and freediving are becoming an increasingly popular and natural combination. This sport, known for its simplicity and effectiveness, offers sailors much more than just a recreational activity—it is a key tool for safety, problem-solving, and a deeper connection with the ocean.
