Dubrovnik charter base directory

ACI Dubrovnik

Main South Dalmatia charter logistics near the city. Fuel, services and Saturday turnarounds concentrate here.

Komolac

Riverside base up the Ombla with strong charter presence and a quieter first night than the Old Town approaches.

Cavtat

Southern option with easier approaches for some fleets and a pleasant first harbour before island hopping.

Which base for which week

Choose ACI Dubrovnik or Komolac for most bareboat weeks. Choose Cavtat when your operator bases there or you want a southern first night.

Provisioning, fuel and check-in

Fuel and provisioning are straightforward at ACI and Komolac. Old Town nights are scarce and premium; treat them as a highlight. Nearest airport: Dubrovnik (DBV).
