Captain Karlo. Embark on unforgettable adventures with Captain Karlo, your guide to safe, seamless, and expertly tailored voyages. A seasoned maritime professional with decades of experience navigating the world’s waters, Karlo is known for his steadfast commitment to safety and his passion for creating extraordinary journeys. From tranquil coastal cruises to daring high-seas expeditions, he ensures every moment at sea is precise, comfortable, and unforgettable. Born on the water and sailing from a young age, Karlo has explored destinations around the world, including the stunning Croatian coast and its idyllic islands, under the sails of his own vessel.

Chef Sara. Sara, born and raised in Croatia, discovered her love for cooking at an early age while exploring traditional Croatian recipes with her grandmother. In 2021, she entered the yachting industry, combining her studies in Maritime Engineering and Information Technology with her passions for sailing and culinary arts. She quickly realized that her love of the sea and her cooking skills were the perfect combination for life aboard a yacht.

Sara learned from her grandmother the art of thinking creatively in the kitchen. She personalizes every menu to the tastes of her guests, using only the freshest ingredients and produce to craft a variety of delicious dishes. Her culinary style, which she calls “when old meets modern,” ranges from vegan and vegetarian meals to fresh seafood and traditional Mediterranean cuisine. Guests often rave about her famous Shrimp Risotto and decadent Chocolate Miracle dessert, both guaranteed to leave you wanting more.

When not in the kitchen, Sara enjoys exploring nature and the water. Whether walking across scenic islands or snorkeling, she loves sharing small, unique souvenirs from the sea with her guests. Her warm personality, dedication, and culinary expertise ensure that every guest enjoys a relaxing, memorable, and delicious experience aboard.
