Itinerary

Ostri rat - Puntamika Lighthouse

one hour Admission included

The trip begins at the Borik marina, just outside Zadar’s old town. As we cruise along the coast, we pass the red-and-white Puntamika Lighthouse, a scenic landmark at the tip of the peninsula. From there, we continue through the Zadar Channel toward the island of Ugljan, with the majestic mountains of the mainland rising in the background—a perfect blend of sea, islands, and dramatic coastal views.
Ugljan Island

3 hours

We’ll anchor for about 1 hour in a beautiful, untouched bay on Ugljan Island. Here you can swim, snorkel, or simply relax and enjoy the peace, crystal-clear sea, and unspoiled nature around you.

Take a moment to unwind – this is your time to enjoy the true magic of the Adriatic.
Ugljan Island

3 hours

We’ll stop at a small, authentic village on Ugljan Island, where you’ll have some free time to explore at your own pace.

Take a walk through its quiet streets, discover local life, or relax by the sea. This is a perfect opportunity to try delicious Croatian food at a local tavern, enjoy a coffee or ice cream, or even take a refreshing swim.

Whether you're in the mood for a bit of adventure or just want to soak up the atmosphere, this peaceful stop has something for everyone.

After that we have 2 hours of smooth sailing through beautiful Zadar channel.
Zadar

2 hours

After our relaxing lunch stop on Ugljan Island, it’s time to raise the sails and enjoy the pure freedom of sailing!

As we glide through the clear waters of the Zadar Channel, you’ll have the chance to relax and take in the views, or, if you’d like, actively take part in the sailing experience. Learn the basics of how sailing works – how we use the wind and adjust the sails.

This is a perfect time to enjoy the peaceful ride, admire the beautiful scenery, and simply unwind on board as we sail through the Adriatic.
