Unless you’ve never actually been to Croatia, or if you don’t use Instagram, then you won’t realise just how gorgeous Croatia is.

With over 1,700 kilometres of sun-drenched coastline, the best way to fully appreciate Croatia is undoubtedly by boat, and doing a Croatia sailing tour is one of the most popular styles of tours for under 35’s.

The European summer is fast approaching which means that all around the world (let’s be honest, it’s mainly Aussies, Kiwis & Brits), people are planning their Croatia trips.

And with reliable companies such as Topdeck, Busabout, Contiki and Sail Croatia all operating Croatia island hopping tours, you’re bound to find something to suit your needs & budget.

But get in quick – the best routes, ships and departures book out months in advance!

So get the gang together and book your Croatia sailing tour before you miss the boat. Literally.

So here's our top reasons why you need to book a Croatia Sailing tour for 2022:
