Our Story

SkipperCity was born out of passion and necessity. In the autumn of 2014, our founders faced unemployment and uncertainty. But on a peaceful bike ride through Slovenia, the seed of a new idea was planted. With a shared love for sailing and a dream to create memorable holiday experiences, SkipperCity set sail.

What started as a bold leap of faith quickly grew into a thriving business. With dedication, transparency, and a customer-first mindset, we turned our vision into Croatia’s leading yacht charter service.

“We didn’t just want to sell charters—we wanted to share the joy of sailing.” — SkipperCity Founders
