ONE WAY charter from Split - ZADAR.
Saling from ACI Marina in Trogir towards Veli Drvenik Island and
Krknjasi Uvala, Rogoznica, Primosten, Murter, Kornati Archipelago,
Telascica Nature Bay,
Vodice, and Marina Borik in Zadar.
We
arrived in
Dubrovnik on 1st of June 2007 and
rented a car for a brief visit to Kotor in Montenegro. There we met some
of our friends, inspected their fleet of lovely Elan, Jeanneau
sailing yachts and ended up having a dinner in an old town restaurant
where they served lovely local wines and food.
After a quick breakfast, we headed back
to Dubrovnik airport to pick up another friend of ours. Finding a hotel
in BABIN KUK area of Dubrovnik proved easier then we thought it would
be, as this time we decided to avoid more expensive 5 star
establishments located nearer to town. Last time Excelsior charged us
almost 300 Eur for the room, but provided only a good service not
offering the value. This time we stayed in a three star hotel paying
only 100 Eur and found it to be clean, half empty which contributed to
luxury and serving the best breakfast buffet you can imagine. Go Aurora,
go. The beach nearby, famous ''COPACABANA'', although not equal to
the original one in RIO, is still a nice place for your first dive. That
night we ended up partying in Fuego, the best club in Dubrovnik.
My good friend Darion even fell with love with local Croatian girl but
sadly they never made it for a second date as we had to live tomorrow
morning.
Day 1
- 15NM:
After driving 4h from Dubrovnik, we arrived in Trogir around 2pm only to
fiind the rest of our crew already allocating the cabins. We ended
up having a good one, as our SUN ODYSSEY 54S was a luxury boat with
spacious cabins, good toilets (STILL A BIT CRAMPED IN THERE !!) although
without teak deck or ipod connections which we would have prefered.
On this day, we stocked up only basic provisions, had lunch in the local
restaurant and sailed away towards Krkanjasi around 3pm. There we
only had a brief dip into the water and soon found ourselves en route
towards Rogoznica for the night.
Day 2 - 10NM:
After a night out in relatively boring Rogoznica, we set sail very early
for Primosten. Breakfast on board was the usual one, with everyone
taking care of it on their own and fighting for the last of cups that we
around :) . Primosten proved to be a much more entertaining
venue. Restaurants were in abundance, beach closer and much nicer,
shopping sensible. it is likely, even Trogir will be left behind
by Primosten in few years time as there seems to be some kind of
progress here in comparison to Trogir where road works lasting 2 years
already, and to last another few, are simply no longer acceptable for us
who go there at least 2-3 times a year.
Day 3 - 10NM
After Primosten we decided to save some money on mooring and ended up in
Murters town harbour on anchorage. It was a nice warm day and getting on
shore with a 2.6m dinghy that can sit only 3 or 4 with kids was an easy
task. Murter, albeit attracting general lower class tourism, still
had something about it, with excellent good food, very good shopping and
relatively good entertainment.
Day 4
- 12NM
The day after we sailed towards Vodice, a lovely tourist town with a
great marina. After an obligatory anchorage along the coast, for
swimming, snorkelling and just relaxing, it is nice to end up in a
cosmopolitan place, leaving your yacht in a great marina just opposite
the restaurant where you eat for the night. Being tired from
plenty of sailing against the winds, we felt asleep very early, already
around 10pm that night.
Day 5
- 18NM
Heading towards Kornati on this day was a great experience. Our
favourite place, OPAT proved to be a top choice once again. Lovely bay,
secure mooring, fresh fish and not so lovely and longish but worthy hike
to the top of the island, where we built our own stone pyramids were the
highlights of the day.
Day 6
- 15NM
On our final sailing day, we sailed across the whole of Kornati
Archipelago.
The wind was great so much so that we
managed to reach 11kn, with 8 adults and 2 kids on board and really only
just about trying. I even ended up being pulled behind, as the
skipper suggested we continue sailing towards Borik due to bad weather
gathering, rather then staying in an unsecure location overnight.
We therefore did not have time for swim, and I grabbed a line and jumped
in the Adriatic, being pulled by the power of sails only. A lovely
feeling and a highly recommendable exercise, although you do have to be
careful not to get injured as it can be a tricky thing to do.
Day 7
- 15NM
On our final day, we returned the boat to the base manager who
immediately went onto preparing it for the new crew. Suffice to
say, we all had our cars either in Trogir or needed a new rent a car,
thus starting our home journeys was not that easy.
At the end, sailing ONE WAY from Split
region towards Zadar is a great experience and one to be recommended.
