The Bearded Adventurer and I recently returned from sailing the islands of Croatia for 7 days. We packed in only two backpacks, one personal sized backpack and one larger one. So I have typed up our packing list to share and hopefully make it easier for you to decide what to bring on your next vacation. This trip we didn’t pack super carefully and probably slightly over packed by bringing some more “frivolous” things like my whole makeup bag and 4 different bathing suit cover ups, plus a favorite blanket.
I made a live unpacking video on the Flipflops and Adventures facebook page to show all of the things that we packed with us.

Packing list for a week sailing vacation in Croatia in August-

Yacht charter is an unforgettable way to experience the islands and coast of Croatia. We always have an amazing time when we choose travel by catamaran!
Overall, I would say that its important to remember that you don’t need to pack too much for a sailing vacation, since you will spend the majority of your time relaxing in swimsuits or beach wear. I am still learning to balance and how to not overpack for each type of trip.
I hope that this list is helpful to you as you prepare for a future adventure! Let me know if there is anything you would add to this list. I would love to hear from you!
Was this trip on a cruise ship? Is that what you mean by sailing!? I’m going to Croatia on Virgin In September but I also need to get with you about a cruise for my family in December from the US (Florida) Christmas week ????????
My husband and I need to start traveling in March, to scout out where we want to move in MX. We want to start with GDL.
