Dinning Out / Bars & Coffee Shops: In Croatia We Generally Do Leave Tips When Dinning Out Or Paying A Drinks Bill At The End Of A Night.

Anchoring and Restaurant Moorings are generally free. Note: this amount may increas or decrease depening on number of students onboard and the moorings you decide to use. *Float management is a crew task and part of understanding boat organisation.
