Getting There and Checking In

Yacht Week

By Yacht Week

Posted on 6th July 2017

Before you arrive:

Fill out crew list

We want your holiday to get off to the perfect start, so please ensure your crew list is completed 4 weeks prior to arrival. Simply log-in to your booking and add your crew following the steps given. Cabin bookers please only add the name of the friend you'll be sharing a cabin with. If you don't do this, you might not get your yacht in time.

Check-in online

Once you have completed your crew list, you can save a lot of time on site if you all check-in online. Each member of the crew must do this before arrival, which will make getting your yacht on time that much easier.

Getting to Montenegro

Flights

Tivat Airport (TIV) is the closest airport to our marinas though flights are infrequent. Alternatively, you can fly to the Montenegro capital Podgorica (TGD) which is a 90min transfer to the marinas. If you fly in Dubrovnik, Croatia, you will need to go through a lengthy immigration at the border with Montenegro. We recommend using a search engine to find the best flights:

Visas

We recommend using VisaHQ to find out if you require any visas to enter the country - www.visahq.co.uk

Getting to your marina

Tivat airport to Kotor, Porto Montenegro, Solila and Muo Marinas

For a 3 person taxi, the cost is approximately €15-€25 for a 20-minute journey.  

Podgorica airport to Marinas

Taxi

For a 3 person, taxi cost is approximately €40-€45 for a 90-minute journey. For larger groups of 4-8 people, we recommend booking through https://taxi-travel.me/ Prices start from 75-100€.

Taxi

The cost is approximately €75-190/vehicle for a 2hr journey*. We recommend pre-booking a transfer from www.montenegrotravelservice.com.

Journey times can take up to 6hrs during busy periods.

Drop off Points in the Marinas

TYW check-in locations will be clearly signposted within the marinas, however, to avoid confusion on arrival please ask your taxi driver to drop you at the following locations depending on your booking: Lovćen Osiguranje AD, Kotor Marina - The Clubhouse, Porto Montenegro Marina -  Muo Marina - Marina Solila  

Upon arrival:

For Week 33, arrival time is 4pm on Saturday and check-out will be 9am on Friday. Please make sure you have done the online check-in before arriving.

Onsite registration for yacht bookers and skipper

The Yacht Week staff will be ready and waiting for you at your marina where you will register and collect your TYW wristband.

Booker: Bring cash/credit card to pay the security deposit* and your passport.

* The security deposit is the maximum cost you can be charged if you damage your yacht or lose equipment. The amount can be found in your booking profile.

Onsite registration for cabin bookers

The skipper will go to the yachting company who is in charge of your yacht. Each cabin guest should give the skipper their deposit in cash. The amount can be found in your welcome email.

Luggage at check-in

Find a safe place to leave your luggage for the day. The Yacht Week staff do not take responsibility for any lost luggage or items.

Please keep away from the yachts

You will not be able to board your yacht until it has been declared ready by the charter company. Use the time to grab a beer or do your grocery shopping.

Grocery shopping

We recommend shopping close to the marina. Most islands will have supermarkets to stock up throughout the week as well. The team onsite will be able to direct you to the nearest supermarket.
