CROYA Yacht Charter Show

Our Experience at the Inaugural CRO.Y.A Yacht Charter Show in Split (4-6 October 2024)

This past weekend, our team at had the exciting opportunity to attend the very first CRO.Y.A Yacht Charter Show, held from 4-6 October 2024 in the beautiful city of Split, Croatia. As a leading provider of luxury yacht charters in Croatia, we were proud to participate in this groundbreaking event, which marks a new chapter in the Croatian crewed yacht charter industry.

CROYA Yacht Charter Show: A Premier Event for Crewed Luxury Yachts

The CROYA Charter Show is Croatia's first official crewed yacht charter event and a pivotal part of Split’s Nautical Festival, which celebrates the rich maritime heritage of the region throughout October. This exclusive B2B event gathered some of the finest luxury crewed yachts based in Croatia, offering an unparalleled opportunity for yacht charter professionals to explore, inspect, and assess the latest yachts available in the market.

For those of us in the yacht charter industry, being able to inspect the yachts in person is essential. Walking aboard each yacht allows us to evaluate their unique features, quality, and design firsthand. It gives us a chance to see the spacious cabins, luxurious amenities, and stunning deck areas that guests will enjoy. Additionally, we can assess the overall experience these luxury yachts offer, ensuring that we provide our clients with the very best options for their charters.

This hands-on approach is crucial in helping us deliver exceptional charter experiences to our clients. It allows us to understand the subtle differences between each yacht, from the layout and decor to the onboard technology and entertainment systems. Moreover, meeting the crews face-to-face gives us insight into the level of service they provide, which is a key component of any successful charter.

Connecting with Crews and Industry Leaders

Beyond the yachts themselves, a key highlight of the show was the opportunity to meet the crews who operate these incredible vessels. In the world of luxury yacht charters, the crew plays a critical role in shaping the overall onboard experience. Meeting with the captains, chefs, and other crew members gave us deeper insights into their professionalism, skills, and dedication—vital factors when recommending a crewed yacht charter to our discerning clientele.

The event also served as a platform for valuable networking. We had the chance to engage with charter brokers, yacht owners, and industry leaders from around the world, exchanging ideas and exploring future collaborations.

The insights gained into the Croatian yacht charter market and its top destinations will help us continue to refine our offerings and stay ahead of market trends.

Split, with its rich history and stunning architecture, provided an ideal backdrop for the CROYA Yacht Charter Show. The city’s iconic Diocletian's Palace, charming old town, and beautiful marina added a unique atmosphere to the event. Split is not only a hub for yacht charters in Croatia but also a must-visit destination for those seeking the perfect blend of culture, history, and luxury.
