Trogir is a town in Central Dalmatia, on the eastern coast of the Adriatic Sea. The very heart of Trogir constitutes an islet lying between the mainland and the island of Ciovo, and on it, the UNESCO-protected old town centre is located. In the town centre there are many different restaurants, cafes and bars (ask staff for directions).

SCT marina Trogir is situated on the small island Ciovo and is connected to the main land via a bridge. The town centre can be reached on foot via the bridge and the quickest route is to walk through the neighbouring ACI marina. The marina has the usual amenities, as well as a cafe bar and a fabulous restaurant with an incredible view over the old town.

Trogir marina has all the essential services you will need such as power and water together with bathroom and shower facilities, supermarket, laundry and a coffee shop and bar. Electricity is available on the piers as well as fresh water. Wireless internet is available in the marina as well as around the cafe bars in town. 

At the end of your charter there is a fuel station at marina Baotic across the water from SCT where you will fill up and pay for fuel. There is car parking in several places around the marina but it is unguarded, in peak season it does get very busy.

Yes, you will need to complete your flight information on the Crew List/Transfer form at least 14 days prior to your arrival that we will have emailed to you. There will be a driver waiting holding a card bearing your name who will drive you directly to the marina.

Please pay the driver directly in kunas. Taxis cost the equivalent (in kuna) of approximately £25 per car each way.  We will advise of prices for larger groups. The transfer takes around 15 minutes.

When you return your yacht's papers back to the base office at the end of your charter, if you are having a transfer please ask the reception staff what time your transfer pick up will be.

Your yacht will be ready to board by 17:00 on the first day of your charter, however, the base team work hard to have the yachts ready as soon as possible, often by early-mid afternoon so if the yacht is ready a little earlier you will be able to board sooner. If your flight gets you to Split earlier than this you will be able to enjoy the cafe bar and restaurant in the marina or take a stroll over the foot bridge into Trogir town.

When you are on board you will be given a full safety brief and a chart brief with one of the skippers or base team with extensive knowledge of the sailing area.

Yes, you will receive a thorough handover of your yacht upon boarding as well as a chart/sailing area briefing and you can familiarise yourself with the yacht and its equipment before setting sail. The Angelina base team will be on hand to answer any questions you may have as well as offering any advice you may need about the sailing area. If you arrive close to or after the base office closes you will receive your yacht handover the following morning.

For those on a Skippered or crewed yacht charter you will meet your skipper (and host/hostess), they will show you around your yacht and chat about where you would like to sail.

If you have a late flight home you can relax at the marina or in Trogir town. You are welcome to use all of the facilities at Marina SCT Trogir before or at the end of your yacht charter which include showers, bathroom facilities, a laundry, restaurant and cafe bar. Some people like to use the time before a late flight home to explore Split which is around 30 minutes' away by car. BUS No 37 runs every 30 minutes from Trogir to Split and its around 30 km distance between the two cities.

You will need to return to Trogir marina at 17:00 at the latest on the penultimate day of your charter (usually Friday). 

There is a fuel station at marina Baotic across the water from SCT, the base team may also suggest other options for re-fuelling. Before returning to the base, please refuel your boat and fill up your outboard engine can before you go to your berth at SCT Trogir marina. Please pay the marina fuel staff directly by cash or card. Do not use your anchor, there are mooring lines on the shore that will be passed to you to secure your yacht whilst you re-fuel.

When returning to the yacht berth, go stern to and do not use your anchor as there are laid mooring lines. 

You will be able to stay on the yacht on your final night and enjoy relaxing in the marina or exploring the amazing choice of restaurants, tavernas, cafes and shops in Trogir old town.

Please disembark by 09:00 on the last the next morning.

If you are having a transfer please ask the reception staff when you arrive back to the marina what time your transfer pick up will be.

All bed sheets, linen, pillows and towels are provided on the boat and if you have booked a catamaran beach towels are also provided. If you have a late flight home we recommend bringing a spare towel if you wish as yacht towels cannot be kept after you disembark on the last day.

All the boats have car stereo style music systems with speakers below deck and in the cockpit. They will either have a 3.5mm jack or a USB connection. We advise you to bring a jack lead as sometimes there may be compatibility issues in connecting your device.

Shore power is available on most town quays and marinas. All plug sockets on the boats are the European 2 pin type however these are only usable when the yacht is plugged in to mains power.  If your devices or equipment do not have 2 pin European plugs you'll need to bring a travel adaptor with you. During the week there is a 12v socket, similar to a car cigarette lighter, which can be used to charge phones and other electronic devices if you bring a car charger with you.

Yes, usually 4 sets of snorkel sets are provided. You are also welcome to bring your own and they are readily available and reasonably priced in the nearby shops and at many places around the sailing area.

Fuel is available at marina Baotic across the water from SCT marina as well as other places on the last day out on the water (please ask the base team for more information). At the end of your charter please fill your yacht and outboard jerry can and pay the fuel personnel directly with a debit or credit card or cash (Kuna).

Fuel will vary depending on the size of yacht you charter and how far you sail and motor on your holiday. Most customers spend the equivalent (in Kuna) of between £90 - £250 per week on fuel for the yacht depending on the size of the yacht and the amount of motoring they do and to top up the fuel for the outboard engine if they have one.

If you have chartered one of the largest yachts or catamarans especially the ones with generators and air-conditioning, you will use more fuel.

Mooring fees at Trogir marina for your first and last day are FREE. The marinas in Croatia offer some of the best facilities in the Mediterranean and there are laid moorings on most quays and mooring buoys in many locations. There are however harbour and mooring charges which vary, however you should budget for around £1.00- £2.00 per foot per night, usually around 1.5x or more for catamarans. 

Many restaurants, café bars and shops around the sailing area only accept cash (Kuna). 

The fuel station, the yacht charter base office at the marina and some large shops and restaurants accepts major credit cards (VISA and MASTERCARD) when you re-fuel at the end of the week and you will need to bring a VISA or MASTERCARD with you for your yacht security deposit. Please make sure you have a large enough limit to cover the deposit for the yacht you have booked.

There are cash/ATM machines all around Trogir town and there is also an ATM at ACI marina next door which you will pass thorugh on your way to town.  However, over the course of the week, you may not visit one of the towns with cash machines every day so it is advisable to stock up before you leave. We would recommend bringing a reasonable amount of local currency with you as quite a few small cafes, restaurants and small shops usually only accept cash. 

It would be advisable to bring a pair of lightweight shoes with non-marking soles for wearing on the boat. You can wear whatever clothes you feel comfortable in but it is a good idea to bring a lightweight waterproof jacket. We do get the odd day of rain, especially at the start and end of the season.

The yachts are equipped with free W-lan, and there is W-lan internet available at Trogir marina plus most cafés, bars and restaurants around the sailing area have free Wi-Fi for their customers.

Mobile phone reception is usually very good. You must bring a mobile phone and charger with you for use around the islands and keep your phone available and charged at all times. Whilst VHF is used, you will not always be in range. There is an emergency phone line 24 hours a day, should you need to contact the base as VHF signal only works in line of sight.

When you provision for food remember to get enough for your skipper. In the evening you can choose to invite them out with you or cover their inexpensive meal if you prefer to dine alone. The skippers are extremely professional and personable and provide discreet and unobtrusive assistance throughout your yacht charter and always become welcome additions on the yachts they sail.

As every group is different and interact with people in different ways we recommend speaking to your skipper at the start of the charter and agreeing with them what you would prefer to do in the evenings. It's usually easiest to provide an agreed amount of cash at the start of the charter for the skipper's evening meals for the week (usually around 200 Kuna per evening meal). If you invite your skipper to join you in the evening they may accept or choose to meet up with fellow skippers or choose to stay on the yacht.
