Kaštel Gomilica is one of the seven Kaštela villages on the bay between Split and Trogir, and its marina — Marina Kaštela — is the closest large charter base to Split Airport after Trogir: ten minutes by road. The fleet is a weekly fleet of sailing yachts and catamarans with the same cruising ground as Split, and the bay itself is sheltered water for a first evening aboard.
The base is quieter and cheaper to reach than Split city, with Trogir’s old town and Split’s palace each twenty minutes away for the day before departure.

Kaštel Gomilica before you cast off
Kaštel Gomilica is a fishing village with a small walled islet, the Kaštilac, joined to the shore by a bridge — it stood in for Braavos in Game of Thrones. The other Kaštela villages string along the bay, each with a Renaissance castle on the water. Split’s palace and Trogir’s cathedral are twenty minutes in either direction.
A supermarket is within walking distance of the marina and larger ones on the main road through Kaštela; the marina has a shop, a restaurant and a fuel dock.
