CAPTAIN HRVOJE
Captain Hrvoje Milicevic brings over two decades of maritime expertise to the helm of Hydrotherapy, offering guests a smooth, safe, and unforgettable sailing experience. With a career spanning more than 20 years in the yachting industry, Hrvoje is a licensed RYA Yachtmaster Offshore (200GT) and Yachtmaster Category A (up to 100GT), with extensive knowledge of both offshore navigation and luxury crewed charters.
Originally from Makarska, Croatia, Hrvoje has sailed thousands of nautical miles across the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and Atlantic, including multiple transatlantic crossings and long-distance yacht deliveries. He has worked with top-tier charter companies and captained a wide range of yachts, but his passion and professionalism are now dedicated to one vessel: Hydrotherapy, a beautifully appointed Bali 5.4 catamaran.
With a calm and confident presence, Hrvoje ensures every guest aboard Hydrotherapy feels welcome, safe, and well cared for. His skills include expert vessel handling, route planning, mechanical and electrical troubleshooting, and hands-on maintenance—all of which contribute to the yacht’s exceptional performance and presentation.
Fluent in English and Croatian, and conversational in Italian, Hrvoje offers warm hospitality with clear communication. Whether you’re seeking adventure, relaxation, or a mix of both, he’ll guide you to the best hidden coves, snorkel spots, and anchorages that the islands have to offer.
