Gentle Bareboat From Pula – Slow-Travel Escape via Brijuni, Unije, Susak, Ilovik & Mali Lošinj
When rest is the priority, Pula’s Tehnomont Marina Veruda is the ideal starting point. Check in with our team, provision at your pace, and ease into a calm rhythm that favors shorter hops, long swims, and unhurried evenings. The surrounding archipelago offers sheltered waters and an abundance of scenic anchorages that lend themselves to books on deck, late breakfasts, and sunset strolls ashore.
This private bareboat plan suits couples and families who want time to unwind without sacrificing variety. Each day brings new views and gentle motion, yet distances remain compact. Expect quiet mornings, warm afternoons in the water, and soft, starlit nights with only the sounds of the sea around you.
About Our Service in Brijuni & Lošinj Islands
The suggested loop is designed around short sailing legs: Brijuni National Park, Unije, Susak, Ilovik, and Mali Lošinj before returning to Pula. You’ll have abundant time to swim, read, explore small villages, or simply do nothing at all. Our departure briefing covers anchorages, mooring options, and weather windows so the week flows smoothly from one easy day to the next.

About Our Yacht – Bavaria C45
Comfort is front and center on the Bavaria C45. The beam carries well aft, creating a capacious cockpit for lounging and open-air dining. The drop-down swim platform makes water access effortless, and the bimini and sprayhood extend the living space by providing shade and shelter. Inside, three restful cabins pair with two bright heads, and climate control helps you find your sweet spot in any season. With solar panels for quiet power, a reliable 57 hp engine, and ample tankage, the yacht suits slow-travel weeks where you can anchor out as often as you like.
Sailing remains delightfully straightforward. The full-batten mainsail in its lazy bag and a furling genoa keep maneuvers tidy, while autopilot and cockpit plotter lighten the navigational workload. A tender offers easy shore access, and entertainment touches like TV and cockpit speakers set the tone for mellow evenings after a day of gentle motion.
