A 50 to 60m motor yacht embarking Split through the 2026 peak window (mid-July through end of August) runs $355,000 to $545,000 per week plus 26 to 28 percent APA, takes 10 to 12 guests on the 6-cabin standard, and carries 14 to 17 crew. Split is the embarkation and disembarkation base for the central Dalmatian seven-night corridor that runs Brac, Hvar, Vis, Korcula, and the southern leg to Mljet and Dubrovnik. The Split historic centre Riva (the Diocletian-side waterfront) holds the 25 metre structural line only and runs no allocation at the 50 to 60m bracket: the structural Saturday turnaround reads through ACI Marina Split in the Spinut bay 3 kilometres north of the Old Town for the inner-T or outer-pier embarkation, with Trogir SCT Marina 12 nautical miles west as the upper-bracket alternative for the 55m-plus line. Roughly 10 to 14 yachts in this LOA work the central Dalmatian corridor through a typical August week, the densest 50 to 60m embarkation count in the Adriatic.
Why the bracket works Split
ACI Marina Split as the structural embarkation. ACI Marina Split on the Spinut bay holds the structural 50 to 60m allocation on the outer eastern T-pier on prior ACI central reservation, with the bracket-fit Saturday turnaround reading through the morning crew-change, the central market and the Konzum-supply-chain provisioning brief, and the afternoon Brac-channel departure. The shore programme runs the captain-car 8-minute transfer to the Diocletian Palace and the Old Town Riva for the dinner-only call, with the chief stew's prior reservation at Dvor on the southern Bacvice face for the upper-deck terrace tasting, Bokeria on the Domaldova Street central Old Town for the seafood and dry-aged bench, and Zinfandel on the Marmontova for the wine-list daylight call.
Trogir SCT Marina as the upper-end alternative. The Trogir SCT (Split City Terminal) marina 12 nautical miles west on the Trogir western face holds the structural 55m-plus allocation on the outer mole on prior commercial agreement, with the bracket-fit overnight reading through the Trogir UNESCO Old Town daylight call and the Split airport (SPU) 5 nautical mile transit through the Ciovo bridge. The Trogir shore programme runs the structural Trogir Cathedral of Saint Lawrence daylight tour, the captain-car 12-minute transfer to the Split airport for the structural fixed-wing arrival, and the chief stew's prior reservation at Pasike on the Old Town Riva and Kamerlengo on the western fortress face.
The Split airport corridor. The Split airport (SPU) 25 kilometres north of the ACI Marina holds the structural fixed-wing arrival for the central Dalmatian Saturday turnaround. The bracket-fit operation runs the structural captain-car transfer (45 minutes) or the Cat A helicopter leg (12 minutes from ACI to the SPU general-aviation apron) for the upper-end embarkation. The 2018-and-newer Cat A helipad enforcement runs harder annually through the SPU controlled airspace and the bracket-fit operation reads through the captain's prior CCAA permit and the SPU airport agency notification.
Weekly rate map for the 2026 season
Rates below are for peak weeks (mid-July through end of August) for the 2026 Croatian charter season, before APA at 27 percent and gratuity at 10 to 15 percent. The Croatian PDV at 13 percent on the charter fee, the ACI Marina Split or Trogir SCT Marina berth fees (the bracket's structural Saturday-turnaround cost line), the Brac-channel and central-Dalmatian-corridor bunker allocation, the Cat A helipad SPU airport agency notification, and the structural crew-change Saturday provisioning load run through the APA.
| LOA bracket | Motor yacht (low to high) | Sailing yacht and large sailing tri (low to high) |
|---|---|---|
| 50 to 53m | $355K to $420K per week | $315K to $375K per week |
| 53 to 57m | $400K to $480K per week | $355K to $425K per week |
| 57 to 60m | $460K to $545K per week | $410K to $490K per week |
The 50 to 60m Split bracket prices roughly in line with the 50 to 60m Hvar at the same LOA because the Split embarkation reads through the central Dalmatian week and the Hvar social anchor pulls the rate. For corridor context see the 50-60m Hvar bracket, the 50-60m Brac bracket, the 50-60m Korcula bracket, the 50-60m Dubrovnik bracket, and the 40-50m Split bracket for the smaller LOA shoulder.
What is in the bracket in this bracket in Split
Cabins. Six standard. The 6-cabin August week reads through the Split-Hvar-Vis-Korcula structural seven-night loop or the Split-to-Dubrovnik southbound one-way, with the Split overnight reading as the embarkation crew-change Saturday only.
Crew. Fourteen to seventeen. Croatian and Maltese-flag charter list dominates the central Dalmatian fleet at the bracket. The captain plus chief stew hold the Croatian-language operational fluency on the ACI Marina Split portmaster, the Trogir SCT commercial agency, the Split airport (SPU) Cat A helipad agency, and the central market provisioning calendar. The chief stew's prior bench on Dvor Split, Bokeria Split, Zinfandel Split, Pasike Trogir, and Kamerlengo Trogir reservations is the structural broker-side question at inquiry.
Tenders. Primary 11 to 12m for the ACI-to-Old-Town shore brief (the structural 3 kilometre captain-car-or-tender pair on the Riva daylight window) and the Brac-channel departure shake-out, secondary 7 to 8m beach-landing for the Pakleni Vinogradisce and the Vis Stiniva shore-tender, plus a chase boat for the central Dalmatian daylight rotation. The Split tender programme runs the embarkation Saturday at the dock only and opens through the Brac-channel afternoon-one departure.
At-anchor stabilizers. Required. The Split base itself runs at the marina with no anchor work, but the bracket-fit week reads through the Brac Bol Zlatni Rat, the Pakleni Mlini and Vinogradisce, the Vis Stoncica and Stiniva, and the Korcula Lumbarda swing on the August maestral. The 2018-and-newer hulls run the structural zero-speed product at the bracket, and the supplementary bora-event northern crossing through the Vir-channel reads through the at-anchor load.
Beach club. Required. The Pakleni Mlini, the Vis Stiniva, the Korcula Lumbarda, and the Mljet Polace anchors run the beach club open hard through the structural August water band of 24 to 26 degrees, and the fold-out terraces run the daylight platform load through the bracket-fit central Dalmatian programme.
Helipad. Cat A useful. The Split airport (SPU) 25 kilometre transit holds the 12 to 15-minute helicopter leg to the ACI Marina Split, the Trogir SCT, or the Brac airport (BWK) heliports on the prior CCAA permit. The bracket-fit Split operation runs the Cat A standard through the SPU proximity and the structural Saturday-arrival rotation, and the captain's prior helipad protocol on the SPU controlled airspace agency holds the bracket-fit operation. The Dubrovnik airport (DBV) 130 nautical mile transit runs the supplementary southbound-disembark leg for the one-way shape.
Trip shape that fits the bracket
The Split bracket reads through the Split-Hvar-Vis-Korcula central Dalmatian seven-night loop shape and the Split-to-Dubrovnik structural southbound one-way shape. The 7-night loop runs Split embarkation (one night ACI Marina Split), Brac Bol daylight one (one night Milna or Bol), Hvar Palmizana two nights with Hvar Town daylight and Carpe Diem night, Vis Stoncica or Komiza one, Korcula Lumbarda or Town one, return Split. Seven nights. The Split loop shape suits the structural central Dalmatian fleet rotation as the closing embarkation base.
For the 7-night Split-to-Dubrovnik one-way the bracket runs Split (one night) plus Brac Bol (one night) plus Hvar Palmizana (two nights) plus Korcula (one night) plus Mljet Polace (one night) plus Dubrovnik ACI Komolac (one night). Seven nights one-way with the Dubrovnik airport (DBV) disembark. For destination context see Charter Split, Charter Croatia, and the Croatia charter weekly rates report.
What the bracket does not do well in Split
The Split Old Town Riva stern-to at the bracket. The Diocletian-side Riva (the central Old Town waterfront) holds the structural 25 metre line only and the 50 to 60m bracket runs no allocation at the inner pier. We would pass on any broker representation of a Riva stern-to or overnight at the 50 to 60m line and hold the ACI Marina Split outer T-pier or the Trogir SCT outer mole instead.
The ACI Marina Split outer T-pier without the written prior allocation in August. The ACI Marina Split outer T-pier 50 to 60m line runs at maximum capacity through mid-July to early September and the bracket-fit allocation reads on 9 to 12 month lead time. We would pass on any captain's plan that books a peak-August ACI Split outer-T without the written ACI central reservation confirmation and the Trogir SCT outer-mole alternative positioned in writing at the contract stage.
Split as a sit-and-anchor base at the bracket. The Split base is the structural embarkation and disembark only, not a sit-and-anchor week. A client expecting two or three Split-overnights inside the routing is over-rotating the embarkation port. We would pass on any plan that books more than one Split overnight inside a seven-night Croatian week at the bracket.
