Frequently Asked Questions:

When is the best time to sail in the Adriatic?

If you want the best value for money then go in May, early June or September rather than mid-August. Sea temperatures are fine for swimming, you'll be treated royally in restaurants, and get a genuine welcome from people on the more remote islands, while the winds will make both you and your boat sing with delight. Much the same goes for October, early November, late March and April (although it will be the hardier souls that swim in these months). We at ClubAdriatic.com sail all year round, and have fond memories of bright and brilliant winter days afloat.

If you or your crew members are relatively inexperienced, then we suggest sailing in late June, July and August, when there is enough westerly breeze (maestral) on most afternoons to hone your skills, but also calms when you can stop for swim, make lunch or potter around with the motor. On warm mid-summer nights, you may find you want to sleep on deck rather than down in the hot cabin. And if you do encounter a nasty blow, there will be other boats and crews around to give you a helping hand.
