A thousand islands, and the handful worth your week

A yacht anchored in a turquoise Dalmatian cove seen from the air

Short hops, stone harbour towns and water clear enough to count the pebbles. Croatia is the easiest first charter in Europe: distances are small, anchorages are sheltered and the food ashore is honest and excellent.
