MyCroatianCharter Launches Portfolio of 12+ Guest Luxury Yachts in Croatia
MyCroatianCharter, operated by DMA Yachting, introduces a curated selection of luxury yachts for 12+ guests in Croatia, addressing the growing demand for small-ship cruises and reinforcing Croatia's position as a premium Mediterranean destination for large groups.
Croatia has officially taken the lead as the Mediterranean's top destination for large-group luxury yacht charters, and MyCroatianCharter is helping travelers navigate this niche fleet, which represents one of the fastest-growing sectors in Croatia yacht charter. Operated by DMA Yachting, the platform has launched a curated portfolio of vessels designed to host 12 or more guests, also referred to as Croatia small ship cruises.
Due to EU maritime safety regulations, most crewed charter yachts are restricted to a maximum of 12 guests unless the vessel is fully certified to meet cruise-ship-level safety standards. This legal limitation makes it nearly impossible to find high-capacity crewed yachts in most European destinations. However, Croatia has stepped in to fill this gap, offering a growing fleet of certified vessels that comply with these standards.
"We receive consistent inquiries from groups over 12 looking for yacht charter in the Mediterranean, and we almost always direct them to Croatia," said Charter Broker Chris de Kock. "It offers the best combination of value, availability, and quality. Greece has some options, but they rarely match up."
Croatia small ship cruises are essentially superyachts certified to carry more than 12 guests, combining the scale of mini cruise ships with the elegance of private yachts. The vessels in this segment offer a premium experience for large groups wanting to share a crewed yacht charter in Croatia, whether families, friends, or corporate teams.
"DMA Yachting is all about giving clients the tools they need to make the right decision," said Charter Broker Sarah Klische. "These yachts are extremely popular, and booking early is essential if you want the best ones. Our curated portfolio makes it easier to identify top options while they're still available."
One standout vessel is Freedom, which accommodates up to 22 guests. With luxury amenities including a spa, gym, jacuzzi, cinema room, and poker table, Freedom provides the atmosphere of a superyacht with the certification and capacity of a mini cruise ship. "Freedom is hands-down the best choice for large group charters—if you can get her," added de Kock. "She only has one week left for summer 2025."
See the full portfolio and reviews of the best Croatia small ship cruises.
These are some of the yachts included in MyCroatianCharter's portfolio:

- KARIZMA (157 ft, €60,000/week): Best for families thanks to her flexible cabins and family-friendly layout. Excellent water toy collection and great sun deck space for 36 guests.
- RUNNING ON WAVES (210 ft, €105,000/week): For guests wanting something unique, this modern take on a tall ship offers true sailing charm and is ideal for large private gatherings or themed voyages. Hosts 45 guests.

Canada U-turn leaves Europe in the lurch on U.S. tech taxes
Prime Minister Mark Carney walks with U.S. President Donald Trump after a group photo at the G7 Summit, Monday, June 16, 2025, in Kananaskis, Canada. (AP Photo/Mark Schiefelbein) PARIS -- Canada's dropping of a tax on U.S. tech giants under the pressure of Donald Trump is fuelling concern about the future of such levies in other countries, particularly in Europe. 'Currently, about half of all European OECD countries have either announced, proposed, or implemented' a digital services tax pending global action, said the Tax Foundation, a think tank which supports the introduction of such taxes. But the future of such measures is unclear after the Group of Seven nations agreed Saturday to exempt US multinational companies from a global minimum tax imposed by other countries. The move sparked a pointed reaction from Nobel prize winning economist Joseph Stiglitz. 'This is about more than trade -- it's about whether democratically elected governments can regulate and tax powerful corporations or whether tech billionaires can dictate policy through political proxies,' he said. Who has imposed such a tax? Austria, Brazil, Britain, France, India, Italy, Spain and Turkiye are a dozen large countries which have imposed or planned to impose special taxes on big tech firms. The objective is to force them to pay taxes where they carry out business as well as to counter the tax optimization strategies they often practice. Generally, the taxes target sales revenue and focus essentially on US firms like Alphabet (Google), Amazon, Apple, Facebook (Meta) and Microsoft. But they differ from one country to another in terms of sales that are taxed, with some targeting advertising revenue and others sales of data. 'Most of the proposed or adopted rates are in the 2-5 per cent range,' of the revenue stream targeted, according to analysts at the Canadian Tax Foundation. Most nations adopted the taxes pending a global agreement which would see multinational companies pay some taxes in countries where they operate, but the prospects for such a deal now look bleak. What these taxes generate The taxes tend to raise more money year after year, according to the latest data from the EU Tax Observatory, which dates from June 2023. Britain, France, India, Italy and Turkiye have seen steady increases in the revenue their taxes generate. Both Britain and France each raised approximately US$1.1 billion last year via their digital services taxes. Italy saw its revenue from the tax jump by 90 per cent from 2021 to over $530 million last year, according to local media. But Spain, which hoped to raise more than a billion per year via its tax, only raised only around $350 million in 2023, according to La Vanguardia daily. Other dominoes to fall? Before Canada, India had already halted in April its six per cent tax on online advertising by foreign firms against the background of trade talks with the United States. The taxes may fall elsewhere. While Britain has reached a trade deal with the United States to avoid the worst tariffs, it wants to go further and has refused to rule out a modification or elimination of its digital services tax. EU nations so far haven't indicated that the tax is on the table. A German government spokesman said Monday that Canada's dropping its tech tax had 'absolutely no bearing' on Berlin's position as it considers it considers its tax policies. But worries remain. National digital service taxes are 'vulnerable to economic and political threats -- particularly from the US, which has historically protected its digital multinationals from fair taxation abroad,' said the Tax Justice Network, a coalition of researchers and activists.

Why Robinhood Stock Is Soaring Today
Shares of Robinhood Markets (NASDAQ: HOOD) are spiking on Monday, up 12.1% as of 3:24 p.m. ET. The jump comes as the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite were both up 0.3% Robinhood announced on Monday that it is launching tokenized trading in the E.U., allowing customers to trade U.S. stocks around the clock. Robinhood makes a major token play Robinhood has launched commission-free tokens in the European Union, the first step in allowing customers to trade more than 200 U.S. stocks and ETFs, including Nvidia, Apple, outside of traditional U.S. stock exchange trading hours. The tokens are issued in partnership with blockchain firm Arbitrum and represent a significant new direction for the company. The tokens blur the lines between crypto and traditional equities and are part of a plan that includes 24/7 trading on its own blockchain. Additionally, it launched crypto perpetual futures for E.U. customers and crypto staking for U.S. users, expanding its crypto offerings as it competes with crypto native exchanges like Kraken and Coinbase and seeks to capitalize on growing interest. Robinhood is highly valued While Robinhood has seen incredible revenue and earnings growth, there is a lot of hype around the stock. This has led to a pretty hefty valuation with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of nearly 50. That's not outrageous for a tech company growing at this rate, but investors should keep it in mind. I think its push into crypto and tokenized trading represents a large opportunity, and for investors with a higher risk tolerance, Robinhood stock is a solid pick. Just be aware that if growth stagnates, the stock could see a significant correction. Should you invest $1,000 in Robinhood Markets right now?
