Why charter in Croatia?

Pag – The Best Party Island in Croatia

February 26, 2024

8 minute read

While cruising in the waters of the northern Adriatic sea, you may come across the iconic Pag Island Bridge. This architectural panorama will be immediately swapped by Pag’s barren, rocky and vast moonrock-type landscape, which is why the island is often referred to as “The Moonrock”. Pag's history is also fascinating; Roman ruins,  Venetian architecture, medieval remains... But let's be honest, on a yacht charter, we crave unforgettable experiences. And Zrće Beach delivers in spades!

While approaching Zrće beach, your yacht can drop anchor just offshore, with lively beats from world-famous clubs like Papaya and Aquarius reaching to the yach`s main deck. Hop on the tenders with anticipation buzzing, ready to dive into the electric atmosphere.

Under the starry sky, thousands dance to the hottest DJs, the VIP sections offer exclusive access, champagne showers, and table service, all while the Adriatic shimmers with moonlight.

Pag Island

Pag Island is not just about music and partying; it is about freedom, just like a yacht holiday.  Chill on sunbeds during the day, soak up the sun and the sea breeze and at night, choose between intimate beach bars, pulsating clubs, or open-air festivals, each offering a unique vibe.

And after an epic night? Back to your luxurious yacht, where the party afterglow mingles with the salty air and the gentle rocking of the waves lulls you to sleep. No wonder Pag is the ultimate party destination for yacht charters – it’s where history, beauty, and an unparalleled party scene collide, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

Zrće Beach

When you type in “Pag Island, Croatia” in Google, the first results that will pop up will undoubtedly be related to Zrće beach and the famed Pag Nightlife.

Sun-soaked skin, the rhythmic bass vibrating through the air and the Adriatic at your fingertips- that’s the magic of Zrće Beach on Pag Island.

As a yacht charter guest, you can anchor near Novalja, Zrće’s vibrant heart with the nearby iconic superclubs of Kalypso, Noa, and Papaya beckoning with promises of world-class DJs, electrifying vibes, and endless summer nights. Forget the stuffy confines of regular clubs; here, the dancefloor spills onto the sand, the stars become your ceiling, and the energy is electric.

Zrće isn’t just one club, it’s a constellation of different clubs and venues. Want to lose yourself in the techno abyss with global DJ legends? Kalypso is your haven.

By day, your yacht can become your private party palace. Cruise turquoise waters, stopping at secluded Pag coves for dips and sunbathing. Unwind with cocktails on deck, sharing laughter and stories with your charter party as the sun dips below the horizon.

Yacht Party Nirvana: Five Different Festivals at Zrće

As a yacht charter guest, you can unlock access to 5 different festivals.  During Hideout Festival, spend your time chillin` at daytime cocktail parties, waiting for them to morph into electrifying night raves, spilling onto the sand under a sky ablaze with stars.

Fresh Island Festival throws down with hip-hop and R&B royalty like Wiz Khalifa and Snoop Dogg. Immerse yourself in two open-air super clubs, dive into five boat parties, and let loose on two stages and two pools. It’s a sensory feast guaranteed to leave you breathless.

If electronic music is that which fuels your soul, Area 4 Festival beckons with four days of nonstop beats across four open-air clubs. It’s a younger festival, translating into budget-friendly revelry, but the intensity is undeniable.

Beaches on Pag Island

In between parties and festivals, yacht charter guests will want to rest in privacy, somewhere the natural beauty of Pag island meets a serent and tranquil environment – perfect for enjoying the amenities of your yacht.

The island is surrounded by crystal-clear Adriatic waters, making it perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and exploring hidden coves. You can also find many stunning beaches, perfect for relaxing or partying.

Čista Beach is located near the village of Kolan and is a great option if you’re looking for a more remote beach. For beach-goers, it is a bit of a hike to get to, so the beach is never crowded.

Ručica Beach in Metajna is completely surrounded by untouched nature and is a great option if you’re looking for a truly unique beach. There are no facilities on this beach, which makes the whole experience quite Robinsonian. Many yacht charter guests prefer Ručica, as their got-to escape from Zrće, when the partying becomes too much and they just want some peace and quiet, before returning to dance the night away once again.

Trinčel Beach is a sand beach located in Stara Novalja and is a great option if you’re looking for a clean and well-equipped beach. It has been awarded a Blue Flag, which means that it meets the highest standards for water quality and cleanliness.

There are plenty of facilities available here, such as public toilets, changing rooms, a beach bar, a restaurant, and fast food. You can also rent sunbeds and parasols, play volleyball, or use the sea slide.
