About Split West Coast (Zapadna obala)

Zapadna obala, Split's West Coast, is a public waterfront quay running west from the edge of the old town towards the ACI marina, below the wooded Marjan hill park. Yachts moor right along the city promenade, so Diocletian's Palace, the Riva and plenty of restaurants are about a kilometre's walk away. It is a city quay rather than a full-service marina, so expect few on-site facilities.

Questions about Rara Avis

How can I cancel my reservation?

Contact our customer service at +386 40 873 520 or via email at info@skippercity.com. We will assist you immediately.

What is the security deposit?

The security deposit is a refundable amount the charter company holds during your charter to cover possible damage. You leave it at the base at check-in — usually as a credit-card pre-authorisation or in cash — and it is returned at check-out if the boat comes back undamaged.

What licences do I need to rent Rara Avis?

Rara Avis is a crewed charter — she comes with a professional crew, so you do not need any licence to book her.

What additional costs should I expect?

The crew's wages are in the charter price, and obligatory extras are listed on this page. Food, drinks, fuel and port fees come on top — on crewed yachts usually through an APA, an advance of 30–40 % of the charter price that the captain spends against receipts and settles with you at the end. The refundable security deposit is separate.

When do I check in and check out?

Check-in for Rara Avis is from 17:00 on the day your charter starts, and check-out is by 09:00 on the day it ends. The charter company’s rule for this base: “Return on the evening before is desirable!”

Who operates Rara Avis?

Rara Avis is owned and operated by Master Charter, an independent charter company with 12 boats in our catalogue. We act as your charter agent: you book and pay through us, and Master Charter hands the boat over at the base.
