    Just back from the most magical week sailing in the crystal blue waters of Croatia. Our beautiful catamaran Xanadu was so comfortable, I slept so well every night! Our Skipper found a fantastic mix of marina stops and moorings and fabulous restaurants. We also got a fantastic welcome back to the base in Agana where the staff were so helpful and facilities lovely and clean. Thank you to all at Moorings for such an unforgettable week.

    The staff at Agana base are brilliant from top to bottom. Mirna who did our chart briefing knows everything about the area and everyone worth knowing and can provide a list of contacts to help with your itinerary. Our 40′ catamaran was well maintained with the exception of a faulty anchor light.

    A couple of things to note for sailors from North America. Firstly, you need to have formal, internationally recognized sailing qualifications. An ICC and an SRC VHF license are both required to skipper a boat. Otherwise, you’ll need a skipper. Secondly, you need to be very comfortable with driving the boat backwards and Mediterranean mooring as that’s how it’s done in every marina.

    Also, be aware that it’s necessary to make marina and, quite often, restaurant reservations in advance and both can be quite pricy particularly when they’re the only game in town.

    All in all, Croatia is a beautiful country where pretty much everyone under the age of 40 speaks English fluently and will go out of their way to be helpful. We’ll definitely be back!

    The best experience exploring all around the Croatian islands for 2 weeks on a 50ft sail cat! The yacht was in excellent condition. Captain Edi made our adventure extra amazing! He planned a perfect itinerary for us and knew exactly what activities, restaurants and spots to recommend for our group! We had a blast with him!

    The most BEAUTIFUL water and sights! Our family of 5 took a sailing trip to the BVI’s and it was pretty epic. My husband was our captain and did a great job. Myself and our three young adult daughters were the crew–we weren’t the best but we managed! My husband was in his glory the entire 6 days. The girls and I wore down with the sailing, the boat, the water, etc. by the end but we still had a great time. The boat was amazing and well equipped. Like glamping on the water. We loved visiting the different islands for coffee, dinner, shopping, the beach, etc. and used the dinghy to do so. Snorkeling was fantastic especially at Norman Island and the Dogs. Loved our dip in the Bubbly pool at Jost Van Dyke and the Baths are not to be missed on Virgin Gorda! If I had to do it again, I think a combo trip of land and sea would be best, but we still had a fabulous time. A trip of a lifetime really!

    We did a crewed charter in the BVIs on a power catamaran with captain Lucy Rees and chef Mark Gilby. Every detail on the trip was nothing short of amazing. The BVIs are simply gorgeous, every stop was perfect, great snorkeling, swimming, good beach bars and restaurants at various stops. The boat was in excellent condition, lots of comfortable relaxing space and living on the boat for 5 days was fantastic! Lastly, we had the best crew ever! Lucy was very relaxed and accommodating, always wanting to personalize our experience and cater to our every need while making sure we were safe and the boat was operating without any issues. Mark who calls himself ‘just a sailor who also cooks’ is way underestimating his culinary skills! every meal was amazing! They were fun to travel with and I hope to repeat the whole experience soon!

    One of my best vacations ever!!! The Power Catamaran was in almost perfect conditions. The marina is very clean and beautiful as always. Obviously the islands and the most beautiful waters in the world. But, what set Moorings apart, is the service and the people working there. Hoping to go back next year.

    We chose a 53’ power cat, sailing from Tortola, BVI, that was super luxurious. It was sparkling clean, in perfect condition, had great a/c, four very large state rooms, was very quiet even while underway and had a dingy. We decided to hire a captain and I think it’s the only way to go. He knew the best dive spots, where to stop for emergency rum (yes, it’s a thing!), he would take the dingy and keep an out when just one person wanted to dive (safe practice) and made dinner reservations for us at great beachfront restaurants. He was so fun we invited him to dinner most nights. Moorings marina in Tortola is incredible having a large pool, multiple grocery stores, gorgeous bar, lovely restaurant and attentive service throughout the entire operation. We had a service issue on the boat and a repair crew was provided quickly to remedy the problem. We would definitely use Moorings again.

    The Moorings bareboat charter was amazing. Our trip through the Windward Islands was relaxing yet full of adventure. We started in St Lucia and ended in Grenada, our 9-day journey on our 46′ power catamaran was filled with snorkeling, hiking, and exploring. I highly recommend a Moorings charter, and they offer captains if you don’t want to do it yourself. They also have a ton of destinations.

    Our week spent in BVI with our Captain (Romano) and Chef Silvia was amazing. Romano kept us safe and accommodated our needs and got along so well with our group.
    Silvia worked so hard to make special meals for us, all delicious and beautifully presented at each sitting. They took such good care of the boat, as if it was their own home.
    The islands were beautiful, the water was crystal clear, and the company was great!

    We had the most amazing week on “Happy Endings” (5800) with Captain Dale & our cook, the angel of the Caribbean, Jan! The boat is beautiful and spacious. Our family of 4 sailed in early July…the weather was perfect and we enjoyed the low crowds. We did encounter some jelly fish and seaweed which kept us from being able to snorkel and/or enjoy some of the beaches, but there were plenty of other amazing spots to enjoy so it all worked out! The boat was so clean and in great condition, Jan made sure of that every day. Jan made us the most delicious meals and was always so thoughtful to ask what we liked and would prefer. She took the best care of us in so many ways and always kept our bathrooms and our rooms so clean. We just can’t say enough and we really hope to sail again with this crew and Moorings!

    Anyone who has ever chartered a yacht knows that the crew can make or break your vacation Look no further if you’re trying to find the absolutely PERFECT crew…Dino and Anna are a choice you’ll remember forever. Promise…

    Dino: An exemplary professional and extremely knowledgeable, mixed with a quiet calm (he’s laid-back😁)
    On the gem scale….Dino’s a diamond!
    Anna: An outstanding chef, perfect at being there for our every need with the uncanny ability to disappear (we felt like we had our own private cat where delishouness would just appear!!)
    Anna’s absolutely magical!

    Dino and Anna both have degrees in maritime studies. Dino also has a history degree. So, his knowledge was incredibly fascinating. Private guide/history teacher AND experienced Captain. Lucky us😊

    These two enhanced our vacation in every possible way.
    They both ROCK!!! ♥️🤍💙🇭🇷🇺🇸
