About Solomar

Best for: families seeking a polished Adriatic summer, with foodie couples a close second.

Solomar is a brand-new 2025 Fountaine Pajot catamaran, 18.8 metres, based in Seget Donji, Croatia. What sets her apart immediately is the quality of the crew: a trio of captain, chef, and hostess whose collective depth is rare on a boat this new. Captain Marko Židić graduated from the Faculty of Kinesiology specialising in Sailing, holds a university teaching post in the off-season, and competes in regattas year-round. That level of seamanship, paired with genuine attentiveness to guests, makes passages as enjoyable as the destinations.

She accommodates up to eight guests across four cabins. Chef Iris Vukušić grew up on Brač, holds a WSET wine qualification and a nutritionist certification, and specialises in authentic Dalmatian cooking made with fresh local ingredients, with a modern edge. Whether your group is after island-hopping with young children, a slow culinary week on the Dalmatian coast, or a multi-generational escape, Solomar's layout, her three dedicated crew, and her 2025 build standard make her one of the most capable new launches in Croatian waters.

Guest reviews

WOW!! What an amazing adventure for our family of seven.
The Solomar is a beautiful sailing yacht, extremely well designed & appointed. Coastal Croatia is absolutely stunning, whether we were in a beautiful town or gorgeous bay/lagoon all to ourselves.
However, what really made this trip special was the incredible crew.
Capt. Marko kept us safe at all times, he communicated with us everyday about our wishes and created the perfect itinerary. He answered all of our endless questions about sailing, always with a smile. He is a great man!Chef / First Mate Iris has incredible culinary skills & kept us full & happy with endless Croatian dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner & all day fun snacks. She was so kind to 9 month old Casey - who also loved her specially prepared foods (he sure did flirt with her too).Andrea has also been a happy smiling delight. She is so bright & cheerful & is constantly striving to make sure we are happy. She sets a beautiful table & always maintains the gathering areas as well as our cabins.
Trip of a lifetime!! Thank you,

To the most amazing crew in the med- Marko, Iris and Ema! You have exceeded all expectations. We hope the rest of your 2025 cruises are just as great as the first. Thank you!!!

Our family has a truly fantastic experience aboard Solomar. The boat was impeccably designed and very comfortable. Marko, Iris and Ema made our trip special in every way, from taking out kids tubing, cliff jumping, preparing healthy and delicious meals, and providing wonderful service. The trip would not have been the same without them. We hope to return aboard Solomar and explore more of beautiful Croatia.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This will be a week to remember. Thank you for the endless activities like snorkelling, paddle boarding and knot timing. Thank you for keeping us all so well fed with delicious sea food and veggies as well as smoothies and desserts. You are the best crew we could have asked for! Emma

I had a great time on board Solomar! I joined the trip with only one full day left, but despite that I was able to enjoy tons of fun activities like snorkelling, tubing and paddle boarding. I found the food to be delicious and particularly enjoyed the octopus. Now heading off the boat, I am excited to see what else Croatia hold. Joseph

I had a very fun time on this trip. Not only was the food great but the service was so good, I felt like everything I asked for was on board. I really appreciated all the fish and meals we were fed. It really let us immerse ourselves into Croatian culture. The sailing was so awesome. Marco took us almost everyday to go tubing and someone fell off every time! This trip was everything I could have asked for and more. Ezra.

Thank you so much Solomar for all the fun that came with this trip. This boat was packed with good food and dun activities which I enjoyed a lot! I loved tubing with Marco and swimming in numerous caves. I found the cliff jump really fun as well. Thank you Solomar!! Elliot (son)

Thank you Solomar crew for always being there to help with something. Thank you Marko for bringing us places and taking us tubing. Thank you Ema for being around the boat and making us delicious smoothies. Thank you Iris for making us meals and being nice. Henri (young son).

Dear Crew, Thank you for letting us stay on the wonderful boat in Croatia! We all enjoyed it! Thank you for always getting us what we needed. I'm so happy we get to be one of the first on the boat! from Eloise (young daughter)

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which will generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
