About this experience

Join for a full-day sailing adventure from Zadar to the beautiful island of Ugljan, guided by the friendly local skipper, a seasoned professional who knows these waters like the back of his hand. You will sail across the scenic Zadar Channel and drop anchor in a secluded bay on Ugljan, where you’ll have time to swim, snorkel, or simply relax in untouched nature. After that, we visit a charming island village, where you can enjoy free time for lunch, a walk, or a coffee by the sea. On the way back, enjoy the peaceful glide of the sailboat and, if you’re interested, learn the basics of sailing from your skipper. This trip is a perfect blend of local culture, crystal-clear sea, and authentic sailing – a day of pure Adriatic pleasure.

Full Day Sailing Tour: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Zadar.

How much does Full Day Sailing Tour cost?

+

Prices start at $49 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Zadar usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Full Day Sailing Tour take?

+

Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Zadar is not rushed.

Is Full Day Sailing Tour worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Zadar, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Sailing Tour?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Full Day Sailing Tour suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Full Day Sailing Tour?

+

Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Zadar can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Zadar and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Full Day Sailing Tour start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Zadar within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Zadar?

+

On Outty we rank every Zadar experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include From Zadar Plitvice Lakes Guided Day Tour with Tickets, Zadar: 3 Islands Luxury Boat Tour with Aperol Spritz & Snorkeling, Blue Bay Snorkeling & Cocktails 3 Islands Speedboat Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Zadar?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Zadar?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
