Cruise in Marina Veruda

LarsWe did arrive a bit early but the Staf was helpful and could arrange the embarkment a bit earlier than the announced time. A Smooth Week with a great ship did follow. Thank ty very much for good support. Lars Brundin with friends.

IvanWe arrived in Pula a day before the beginning of our charter. Something I recommend as Pula has a lot to offer. We drove to Marina Veruda around 4 PM on the following day. (The information stated that the boat is available from 5 PM) This is far to late in October, even though the formalities were dealt with swiftly. By the time we returned from shopping to provision the boat it was pitch dark. Not good to get settled on the boat. The sailing area of Istria is fantastic with plentiful possibilities. We covered approximately 160 nm in our week. Being new to the Adriatic the Mediterranean mooring, using two lazy lines, initially posed some challenges to our husband and wife team of two, the good news: we are still married. My recommendation: Read up on it and do a practice run in your starting marina before you leave. Upon our return we had to line up for refuelling for some 45 minutes. Factor this into your day plan. Overall: The boat was in excellent technical condition for its age, the marinas are clean and well equipped (if not cheap), the sailing area exceeded our already high expectations. We are definitely coming back.

CarolineFrom the first contact to checking in on our sailing vessel, everything went smooth :) We can recommend The Globe Sailor, they have a good overview of available boats at any time.

AngelaWhat a fantastic time was had by all on our 7 day catamaran sailing holiday. We picked the boat up at Pula. A beautifully maintained boat The only thing that could have been improved on, was for the beds in the cabins to have been ready made up with the sheets etc. The skipper Luka was fantastic. His knowledge of the area was second to none and he took us to some fantastic locations. This was our first time in Croatia so it was great to have his suggestions. He arranged restaurant reservations for us and had them prepare vegan dishes for the 5 vegans that were on board and he translated at the restaurants for us. The islands that we visited were just so beautiful, unassuming and not at all commercial. One of the favourites was The island of Cres. And we also swam from the boat in some fabulous idyllic bays. There were nine of us on board and Luka insisted that he slept outside to ensure that we all had the accommodation...He really was the best skipper! We had some problems with one of the toilets one day and Luka arranged for the replacement part to be delivered to the boat whilst on one of the islands, the following morning and he then carried out the repair job...this avoided us having to wait two days without the use of one of the toilets. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Overall...Great Service....Great Catamaran....Great Skipper...Great location.... We would do it all again in a heartbeat!
