Highly recommend!!!
Fantastic day sailing!!!! We booked this following a local recommendation. Damjan and Marinero were perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble. Following a swim in a secluded cove they phoned ahead to pre- book our delicious lunch so we had more time to look around a beautiful village on Solta before sailing back to Split. Very experienced sailors and felt safe in their hands. If you want a private, relaxing experience away from the typical tourist boat trips, this is the one for you.

Chilled intimate not your ‘blue lagoon rip off’
Damian was a perfect host for a intimate sailing experience. Avoiding the crowds and ‘party boats.’ It was a fantastic day. Our teen children had a blast, gentle sailing, enjoying the sun, chatting, best of all swimming and snorkelling. Little coves, amazing warm waters, the odd glass of white wine, cheese and prosciutto. Very laid back, chilled it could not be better. Everyone said they needed a swim, so Damian stopped the boat and we all cooled off.. not your usual money grabbing tour.. Brilliant day, great host not to be missed

Blessed day on the water
We had such a great day on the water! The guides were professional and kind-definitely experts, we felt very safe. At first, it didn't look like there would be any wind for sailing, but we were blessed with enough wind to raise the sails. The island we had lunch at was pure magic...order the sardines! We even saw dolphins on the way back. Truly a beautiful day-money well spent. Thank you guys and wish you the best!

Fantastic day, highly recommended
We had an absolutely brilliant day - lovely clean boat, good food and wine and perfect hosts. They took us to some lovely spots to swim and have lunch and we were even lucky enough that the wind allowed us to sail back - fabulous experience. We really felt that Damien and Marin did everything they could to make our day special and we loved learning about life in Croatia. Thank you.

Perfect Day
We spent an amazing day with Marinero Sailing. The weather was perfect and our Captain and Assistant were the perfect Hosts. They entertained us with lots of History and Information about Split. Their Hospitality was top notch. The lunch at the small Village was wonderful. It was the last day of our 2 week Vacation and it was a memorable end. I would highly recommend a day with Marinero Sailing.

Why this scores 59
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Full Day Sailing: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does Private Full Day Sailing cost?
+
Prices start at $858 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Split usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Full Day Sailing take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Split is not rushed.
Is Private Full Day Sailing worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Full Day Sailing?
+
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 Private Full Day Sailing suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Full Day Sailing?
+
Around 6 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 Split 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 Split and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Full Day Sailing 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 Split 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 Split?
+
On Outty we rank every Split experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Split Walking Tour with Professor of History, Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister of History, From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting 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 Split?
+
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 Split?
+
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.

+
Included: Bottled water; Skipper, insurance; Use of snorkeling equipment; Alcoholic beverages; and Snacks. Not included: Towels. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Full Day Sailing?
+
The boat will be in proximity of "INA" boat refueling station. It's a 33ft sailboat with "RO 1037" written on the back. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Full Day Sailing offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Croatian. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Full Day Sailing?
+

+
