Sailing to Vis – Alitis Yachting Imagine gliding over the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea, the sails full of wind, sun kissing your skin, and the distant silhouette of Vis Island slowly taking shape on the horizon. At Alitis Yachting, we specialize in creating unforgettable sailing experiences, and a trip to Vis is one of our most beloved routes for good reason. Why Vis? Vis is one of Croatia’s most enchanting islands. Once a military base, it remained closed to foreign visitors until 1989, preserving its authentic charm and natural beauty. Today, Vis offers a peaceful escape, untouched landscapes, and a rich cultural heritage that makes it a must-visit destination for sailing enthusiasts. The Journey Departing from Šolta or other nearby marinas, your sailing journey with Alitis Yachting takes you through some of the most scenic parts of the Dalmatian coast. With a professional skipper at the helm, you can relax and enjoy every moment—from quiet coves perfect for swimming to lively seaside villages offering fresh seafood and local wine. Our modern sailing yachts are fully equipped for comfort and safety, and our skippers are not just experienced sailors—they’re your guides to discovering hidden gems that only locals know. Highlights of Vis Stiniva Cove – Frequently ranked among the most beautiful beaches in Europe, this narrow bay with dramatic cliffs is accessible mainly by boat. Blue Cave (Modra špilja) – Located on the nearby island of Biševo, the cave glows with ethereal blue light at midday. A short detour worth every second. Komiža and Vis Town – These two picturesque towns on opposite sides of the island offer cozy harbors, charming stone streets, and a relaxed island vibe. Local Cuisine – Try traditional dishes like peka or grilled fish, and don’t miss Vis’ famous wines, especially the white Vugava and red Plavac Mali. Why Sail with Alitis Yachting? At Alitis Yachting, we believe sailing is more than a vacation—it’s a journey of discovery. Our skippered charters are designed to give you the freedom to explore, with the comfort of knowing you're in expert hands. Whether you're an experienced sailor or a complete beginner, we tailor each trip to your pace and preferences. Let us handle the wind and waves, while you soak in the sun, scenery, and the soul of the Adriatic. Ready to Set Sail? Vis is waiting.

An incredibly thorough rebuild by very competent people who knew exactly what they wanted to do with her, followed by more than a decade of the demands of successful day #chartering on Penobscot Bay, Maine, have ensured fifteen years of trouble free, easily maintained ownership for two UK custodians of this strikingly beautiful, strong and practical sloop by one of the masters. SHANTIH OF COWES' board-up draft of only 1.4m allows her to explore where others don't dare, and with the centreboard down she sails delightfully and with the lack of fuss her purity of sheerline suggests. With such ease of sailing, comfort below and pure personality, SHANTIH OF COWES may be the perfect family and friends classic forty-footer. http://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/573/SHANTIH%20OF%20COWES

Meet the Starry Night Octopus! They are nocturnals and are known for their speed and agility when escaping predators or capturing prey. They can also swim quickly through the water by jet propulsion, using a burst of water from their siphon. ~~~ #starrynightoctopus #octopus #marinelife #scuba #diving
