Silvia Vlakancic, Founder
Born and raised on a Croatian island in a traditionally maritime family, Silvia grew to love everything that has to do with the sea.
From cooking on sailing yachts to developing her career as a PR specialist in the B2B yacht-charter world, she now balances her life between New York City, Croatia and the Hamptons.
Combining the best of both (or rather three!) worlds, inspired her to start Anchor & Wine: A travel company that would tailor unique foodie-oriented sailing tours in Croatia, while catering to the most sophisticated customer.
As a genuine wine enthusiast, Silvia obtained the WSET Award in Wine Certification, and is continuing her education in the wine field.
​
Moving overseas did not mean leaving her love for the Adriatic coast behind; It was an inspiration to bring a unique product into the Croatian yacht-charter industry, one that would combine sailing, fine wine, and gourmet food.
