Just back from an excellent week on the Brac flotilla in Croatia
Our third flotilla out of Marina Agana
Great lead boat crew of Ada, India and Duka
Clear instructions and briefings from Adam who quickly assessed which boats and crews needed more help or less help
Duka and the technician was excellent always looking for work and checking all was well on our yacht
India was tireless in organising dinners restaurant bookings and fun events
Consistently upbeat she added a lot of local knowledge and advise to us all
Well done all. We shall be back next year -
The best flotilla week with Sunsail so far due to great company on the other boats and, most importantly, the excellent lead boat crew: Elle, Finn and Fintan, who were brimming with energy, generosity and fun. We loved every moment – snorkelling, swimming in unspoilt coves and doing some glorious sailing. We would have loved some more wind but nothing is perfect. We’ll definitely be back.
-
We have just finished an absolutely brilliant week on the Krka flotilla. We sailed with two friends and our two sons (8, 10) who had the time of their lives. We couldn’t have asked for a better lead crew (Elle, Finn, Fintan), they had the perfect mix of fun, expertise, patience and support. We will never forget our week with Sunsail and will definitely join another of their flotillas!
-
Fantastic week, flotilla, day skipper and competent crew.
Jesse, Becky and Cariag were great and made life easy for us, Dave the instructor was very chilled out and managed to combine getting through the course content with a family holiday keeping everyone happy.Thanks all

Excellent yacht. Clean, tidy, full complement of cooking utensils etc. We’ve used Sunsail lots in the past so knew what to expect.
We were here as 1x ‘learning boat’: 2x day skipper & 3x competent crew plus the rest of the family with qualified Dad on a 2nd yacht and were part of a flotilla.
We were taught by the fabulous Tadek whose knowledge & teaching skills far outweighed his years. He made the course fun: lots of skills acquired whilst still ensuring we had a holiday. He also has the patience of a saint when our 9am ‘set sail’ didn’t happen & when my menopausal moments caused me to have total memory blocks.
Lots of lovely moorings in quaint towns & villages. Lots of help with booking restaurants by the vivacious Lazy hostess India (Lazy was the name of her yacht NOT her attitude to the job!).
Great week on a great yacht with a great company. -
Our second flotilla but first with Sunsail and it was first class. Becky, Jesse and Phil were a great team and we felt very well looked after – lots of care was taken with safety/weather conditions which we appreciated, maintenance on the boat was dealt with swiftly and the social side was well organised and a lot of fun. Our 42.3 boat was great – modern, easy to handle and well equipped and we found some lovely spots for lunch. The guaranteed berth every night takes a lot of stress out of the busy season. The gang agreed a week was not enough though – two next year.

Our first charter with Sunsail on the Hvar flotilla was an absolute dream come true! We feel incredibly lucky to have had India, Carriag, and Filip as our lead crew, who were exceptionally trustworthy. Knowing it was our honeymoon, Sunsail prepared champagne on the boat as a welcome gift. India went above and beyond searching for winery tours options after we mentioned our interest, and she booked the perfect spot for us at Hora Farm in Stari Grad which was a highlight. Carriag’s expertise and professionalism stood out, always offering prompt, skilled guidance whenever we needed it. Filip’s morning briefings and precise mooring instructions gave us confidence during each mooring. Their expertise and warm personalities made every moment coasting along the crystal clear Dalmatian coast magical. The Sunsail’s organization and care ensured a joyful adventure. Thank you for making our honeymoon truly magical!

Exceptional instruction from Tadek – Sunsail Agana
We’ve just returned from the 5-day Day Skipper and Competent Crew course with Sunsail in Agana, Croatia, as a family of five. My husband and I hadn’t sailed for over twenty years, and this was the first time on a yacht for our 15-year-old twins and 12-year-old daughter. It has been an incredible week.
The Day Skipper course is full-on – and rightly so – but under Tadek’s expert guidance we went from rusty but enthusiastic to confident and competent, ready to charter on our own next year. Tadek’s sailing skills and depth of knowledge are outstanding. You always feel safe and in capable hands, even when practising the trickier manoeuvres like parking – which you will do a lot – in shifting conditions. Thanks to him, we can now get in and out of a berth wherever we go.
He has excellent judgement when it comes to pacing the course, balancing energy levels with the right timing for more complex navigation and learning exercises. His patience and ability to explain things clearly made him superb with the children, and he adapted seamlessly when our daughter had a wobble about sailing, dropping us at a beach club for a few hours while my husband and the boys continued. His calm, kind, and highly emotionally intelligent approach meant every member of the family learned, enjoyed, and felt included.
Tadek made what could have been an overwhelming week into one of the best family holidays we’ve had. We left not only with new skills but also the confidence to go it alone next year – which is surely the best recommendation we can give.

What a brilliant week on the water. Despite the various weather elements of our week in the Med, we had a wonderful week onboard our sunsail yacht. We were so well looked after by our lead crew of Finn, Fintan and Elle – with great humour and spirit – alongside superbly helpful harbor briefs, technical know-how, sailing support and wonderfully organised restaurant and mooring bookings. When our yacht had a engine failure, the spritely Fintan was sent across and as he worked his way through the problem, we found him a delight to have on board. All was ok in the end and it simply made for more adventure stories of being towed, nudged up river by tenders and using the sails with urgent meaning!

Very welcoming base staff, nice boats (especially the premier option). Easy sailing, spectacular locations. From the Vacation Planer (Thank you Roland) to base on site staff it has been a pure pleasure and dream sailing vacation. Do you know how to sail? Do you know how to operate a powerboat? Don’t wait, go for it. Yes, now and than you might experience minor boat issues, but nothing that the base technicians won’t be able to deal with (this is a part of cruising vacation). Everyone is beyond accommodating and helpful. The base itself is spectacular. This review is based on 7 charters and more to come.

Fantastic week on a flotilla. Looked after really well by Fil, Becky and Jesse. We would highly recommend it – next time we’ll do 2 weeks.
-
A most enjoyable relaxing and interesting experience. Very well organised, beautiful boats and a nice itinerary. We had 2 great skippers, Dayan and Hana who looked after us very well. Beautiful mooring spots and a very well equipped boat. Everybody had a wonderful time. Thank you to the Sunsail team for making it an unforgettable experience.
-
An amazing week; our boat was perfect, the Brac trip was beautifull with great locations, but everything was enabled by our amazing Flotilla lead crew. Finn, our skipper was super calm and experienced, Elle was an amazing host who organized everything perfectly and Fintan, our technicien took care of any technical challenges we had. Cannot wait to go again!
-
Absolutely superb holiday and very well looked after by Adam, Jesse and Becky who were attentive snd proactive throughout. Many thanks 😀
-
Absolutely fantastic flotilla holiday with Sunsail in Croatia. We started from Agana Marina and sailed around Solta, Brac and Hvar. Our Sunsail team of Adam, Becky and Jesse were exceptional. Adam gave fantastic sensible briefs at the beginning of the day so we always had a great, safe plan for the day. Becky booked all our meals and we always sat at the most picturesque table. Jesse sorted out any little problems efficiently. All the competitions and little events they laid on were huge fun for children, teens and adults alike. Croatia was beautiful.
-
Can’t rate this trip highly enough. Dalmatia Flotilla – 2 adults, 2 teenagers – all taking Competent Crew. Tadek, our instructor and live aboard skipper, was wonderful. His experience, varied teaching style (altering depending on learner style), support, enthusiasm etc could not be bettered. The support team on Krka 1 were friendly, knowledgeable and a pleasure to meet. The itinerary was fabulous. We are looking at returning next year – potentially to take Day Skipper – on another Flotilla route.
-
Just been to Croatia. Went on 7 day trip round the south of Split islands. 52ft boat with 7 of us on it. Lovely boat. Adam and Becky were fantastic hosts. Gave all the information and guidance we needed. It’s a third Sunsail trip in a row. Beautiful clear water. Fantastic food. The wind was up and down but managed to get some good heeled over sailing, wind on the nose a lot which was a tad frustrating. Some good social night with the other crews. Highly recommend. We will be definitely booking again next year
-
We were on the Hvar flotilla with lead crew Adam, Jesse and Becky. They ensured we had great spots each night and looked after us and the boat. This was our first time in Croatia and we were impressed with how good the port facilities were and also just generally how clean and welcoming the places we visited were. We got some great sailing and the kids enjoyed lots of swim stops along the way.

Sunsail is a very professional and very hospitable organization. Before the rental they share high quality and comprehensive information and briefings about the rental, the do’s and dont’s and about the area you will be sailing in. And when I say comprehensive it is comprehensive, it’s a long list of video’s. If you want they also present live briefings on the first day. A Technician will personally introduce you to your boat and it’s specific instuctions. For us, as a family with a lot of sailing experiance in the Dutch coastal waters but not in Croatia, this was a perfect way to be introduced into sailing in these beautiful waters.
And the Split-area (where the base is located) is not only beautiful, but also very easy to sail.
The only “minus” is that is that you have to return the boat with a filled up fuel tank. That would not be a problem, however there is no fuel option in Marina Agana. So you have to fuel up at one of the other locations. These are very busy on the returning day. We filled up one day earlier (Thursday) but that requires some planning.
There is an option to pre-pay for the fuel, however that option is expensive (which makes sense because they will have to refuel somewhere else as well).
In spite of the refueling point, we definitely recommend Sunsail at Marina Agana! A perfect organization in a more than beautiful environment!

We have just returned from doing the week long Hvar flotilla. Highly recommend from start to finish the lead crew Filip, Kieron & India were fantastic! India is a real asset to Sunsail, she always greeted us with a smile at the end of the day & was full of helpful information & advice. Nothing was too much trouble. Kieron was always on hand to resolve any minor issues we had. Filip was friendly, full of advice & encouragement. All in all a 5 star holiday with amazing staff who are a credit to Sunsail & they made our holiday experience seamless. We will return!
