New One Design Rally Around Northern Dalmatia

Croatia Cruising Companion - Zadar Greeting To The Sun

We’ve just come across what looks like an excellent choice of routes for a one design yacht rally next summer. Sail World plan a flotilla event around some of our favourite and less discovered parts of Croatia including Zadar, Šibenik and the Kornati islands. All are covered in depth in our Croatia Cruising Companion and, in this area, you can be sure of spectacular scenery, challenging sailing, and the best of Croatian culture, history and architecture.

Read more about the trip on Sail World's web page.

Read more about the area on the following pages of sister site, Croatia Online :

Croatia Online - Sibenik's Bunari Museum

Croatia Online - Caffe Bar Zoilo Zadar

Croatia Online - Biograd Gastronomy and Nightlife

or browse through this site and Croatia Online for a real taste of what to expect.

Today’s photo was taken at sunset in Zadar. The world renowned civic architect, Nikola Bašić, based in Zadar, designed the Greeting To The Sun, powered by photo voltaic cells, to accompany the haunting sounds of its neighbour, The Sea Organ, powered by the waves. In the distance, just a hint of what you might expect on Sail World’s sailing trip.
