Fleet snapshot of September 28, 2026. Prices and availability change daily — the live list below is current.
Istria is the northernmost of Croatia's charter regions and the closest to central Europe — many crews drive here rather than fly. The peninsula's west coast runs from Poreč and Vrsar past Rovinj and Fažana to Pula and Medulin in the south, a string of Venetian-era towns with harbours close together and relatively few offshore islands.
Pula is by far the largest base, and most of the fleet is sailing yachts, with a strong motorboat fleet around Poreč, Vrsar and Rovinj for day trips along the coast. From the southern tip of the peninsula the Kvarner islands — Cres, Lošinj, Unije and Susak — are within a day's sail, and that crossing is the main event of most Istrian weeks.
The season runs from May to October. In summer a light north-westerly breeze is typical along the west coast; in the Kvarner the bura can blow hard and suddenly from the mountains, so the crossing is best planned around the forecast. Charter prices here start from about €86 a night, among the lower levels on the Croatian coast.

Where do Istrian charters usually go?
Most weeks leave from Pula or Medulin and cross to the Kvarner islands of Cres and Lošinj, returning via Unije or the Istrian south coast. Crews wanting shorter hops stay on the west coast between Rovinj, Vrsar and Poreč.
Is Istria suitable for beginners?
The west coast is straightforward, with short distances between towns. The open crossing of the Kvarner needs more attention to the weather, particularly the bura, so plan it for a settled day.
