Croatia is still booming as an area that is simply hard to beat with its many islands, short distances, great harbours and beautiful bays - especially as there are no cheaper charter yachts anywhere in the Mediterranean. But the issue of costs also concerns charter crews: Once again, harbour prices, especially for day moorings, have risen sharply in many places, and more bays have been equipped with buoys for a fee.

Anyone looking for a choice in view of the spiralling costs in Croatia will quickly find what they are looking for on the Italian-Slovenian Adriatic. Between Piran and Venice, there are a number of exciting alternative harbours that make a visit or even a change of destination attractive.
