Planning your Croatia family gulet cruise
Going on a holiday with kids can be a hard enough endeavor. You have to make sure the locations are safe for kids, the food is suitable for them, the weather is not too hot, and the children are not bored. The same goes for the gulet cruise, so you have to take some things into consideration when preparing your family cruise.
Gulet cruise in Croatia can be perfect for families with small children because you can visit a lot of nice and safe places for children to swim, snorkel and enjoy themselves.
Families with teenagers can have a lot of possibilities for water sports and kids have an opportunity to leave the gulet and have a good time for themselves. Safe and interesting for your kids, relaxing and joyful for you.
A cruise perfect for children
Your itinerary should not be one hundred percent fixed and set in stone. It should be short and flexible, a combination of beautiful islands, nice towns, and interesting activities. Croatian islands offer many beautiful beaches where children can safely play in the crystal clear water of the Adriatic sea.
When you are moored with a gulet in a beautiful bay the possibilities for kids are almost unlimited. They can jump in the sea, swim, snorkel, go to the beach etc. Water sports are an important addition for children. It is very good for gulet to have at least one canoe. It is great fun for small kids.
Gulets are safe
Safety always comes first when it comes to traveling with children. You can charter a gulet with a safety net, wider beam, and large comfortable salon where kids can be safe when the vessel is on the move. You can book gulets that have a large salon with a TV. This comes useful for leisure time while the captain takes you from one location to the other. Children will be safe in the salon watching cartoons while you can enjoy and relax on the deck.

A cruise with teenage children
If you have a family cruise with teenage children you should consider the itinerary where kids can get off the gulet on several occasions to have a good time on their own. A lot of places for swimming, snorkeling, and other water sports are also very important. Gulet must have as much water sports options as possible, so the kids will not get bored. Salon with a TV is almost a must, as is other technical equipment such as Wi-Fi connection, iPod plugins, and good music system.
Full board accommodation
We always recommend full board accommodation (with breakfast, lunch, and dinner) if you travel with smaller kids. Most of the time children tend to not like seafood or local specialty dishes, so the chef should have the flexibility to prepare simple meals modified for kids. Food should be abundant and with a variety of choices. Furthermore, try to find those gulets that can provide a child-friendly crew that loves kids and has a required patience when come to dealing with children.
